One of the best things about taking photos is sharing them with your friends and family. There are a number of free online photo album and digital photo sharing choices on the Web today.
And with online photo sharing more popular than ever, it’s really easy to share your photos with your loved ones.
Some of the best online photo albums for you to try today include:
- Snapfish lets you order prints of your online photo albums, and the first 20 prints are free. Snapfish has group rooms, one of the best picture sharing options online today. Your friends, family and coworkers can all help create online photo albums. You can buy personalized photo gifts on Snapfish, turning your online photo albums into calendars, t-shirts, mugs and posters. I like how easy it is to upload your cell phone photos, and using the Snapfish editing tools to clean them up for your online photo albums is a snap!
- With Shutterfly, you can create online photo albums, photo cards and gifts and DVD photo slideshows. The editing tools are easy to use and you can also rate and organize your free online photo album. It’s easy to start the Shutterfly digital photo sharing process, just select your free online photo album and e-mail it to your friends and family. Once you download the online photo albums software, you can share your albums for free and order prints of your online photo albums for a small fee.
Some of the best picture sharing options available online includes:
- Flickr has to be the best online photo sharing web site out there. Flickr lets you post photos and view other site member’s photos too. This picture sharing site lets you comment on your photos, comment on member photos and receive comments from other members too, which can be really helpful. When you participate in online photo sharing at Flickr, you’re really joining a community of amateur and professional photography buffs. Online picture sharing profiles tell you a little more about the photographer. Check out the work of one of my favorite online photographers, Tom Stone.
- When you think of Myspace, you’re probably not thinking about online photo albums or digital photo sharing. Myspace is generally thought of as the meet-and-greet for twenty-somethings. But Myspace gives you a really easy way to create online photo albums, with one of the best picture sharing options available today. You can’t edit your photos, turn them into picture mugs or do anything too fancy. But you can let others rate your best online photo albums, and you can easily point friends and family (especially the younger ones!) to your online photography site.
