Who Do You Upload Your Digital Pictures Too?

You can't go wrong with www.shutterfly.com . Free to upload and share. Password protection. Super quality. Fair prices. Lots of specials. Good photo editing options. I use a professional lab, but Shutterfly is really close in quality!

Another great site for personalized photo gifts CHEAP is...

www.discountphotogifts.com

Hope that helps!

I use ofoto.com. You can save a BUNCH of albums to share,order prints,make photo calenders,etc. You can also edit the photos. The service is free but you pay if you order a print. Its like 20 cents a print I think.

I really like kodak gallery. If you don't mind picking them up or having family order them quickly walmart.com does a great job too.

We use Snapfish. It doesn't cost anything to join or to upload prints. We like it because we can order prints and pick them up from the Walgreens of our choice within an hour if we need them in a hurry.

Hi K. - We also have family spread across the US, so we use www.babysites.com. It's a free site and it allows you to create a website for your kids. It has a place to track their growth, write journal entries and add different photo ablums. I update it once a month so that family can see her progress in each of the albums, hear about what's going on with us and see her growth. They are able to order pictures from the site and it links them over to shutterfly to order pictures. We love it and our family can't get enough!!! You can go to babysites.com and View a Demo so you see what it looks like. It's really easy to do. Good luck!

We use Snapfish.com. We have been very impressed. They offer really cool gifts, cheap developing, fast delivery, able to e-mail your friends and view them online. Give them a try!

Have you tried Kodak Easy Share Gallery. They seem to be really easy to use and order from.. I feel you, our family lives all over and it is hard to mail pics with two little ones. I just have one and can't seem to get around to it!!!! We have used this many times!

I used to use www.snapfish.com but now use www.winkflash.com Have been very happy with the quality, promptness and pricing (esp price of shipping)

We use Costco (www.costcophotocenter.com) because we usually have so many to print. It's free to upload, keep an album, share that album with friends and family, etc. If you are familiar with Snapfish, it's the same format. You can pick up at the warehouse (if you're a member) or have them shipped. With Costco printing it has been hit or miss on the quality. We've also used Snapfish for our holiday greeting cards and had them 'pick-up' printed at Walgreens -- these turned out great.

I've heard that Wal-Mart is awful but haven't tried them myself.

Hi K. - Try Kodakgallery.com. We use them with all our digital pictures and it's very easy to use and have friends/family order from there. I've also used snapfish - but am not too familiar with them. Good Luck...R..

I use kodakgallery.com

We use Kodakgallery.com I JUST sent an order at the end of this week so they would arrive at grandma's in the coming week. I don't know about the quality.

In the past I have used Walmart for my own prints. While the quality is good, it always seems to be an ordeal for the store personnel to find my pre-paid uploaded photos.

My sister-in-law uses Costco. I haven't tried them yet.

I saw $0.19 at Walgreens on Main/McDermott? and may try a few there to see how they work out.

I personally was disappointed with the quality from Wal-Mart-- that may have been my local store though. I liked Costco-- resonable price, but they print my last name on the photos. (This is a problem for me as my girls are adopted and I send tons of pics to the birthfamilies, who are not supposed to know our last name.) I LOVE Walgreens! It does not cost anything to upload the pictures. The cost less than if you go to the store. You are able ot organize photos into albums, and can easily share albums or just single photos to people anywhere by inviting them to see your pictures. They do need to sign in on-line. I like it because there are Walgreens all over the country-- you have a choice of picking up your photos at the Walgreens of your choice or having them shipped directly to you for a shipping fee. Our grandparents love viewing all of the photos on-line, then selecting the ones they wish to purchase and picking them up at their own local Walgreens. You can also create cards, post-cards, calendars, mugs, etc. I love making calendars for the grandparents for Christmas-- not very expensive and they love seeing their granddaughters every day. Hope this helps!

I use shutterfly.. www.shutterfly.com
Love it. You can order pictures, create calendars, books etc. You can crop your pictures and change them to b & w or whatever...and you can also share your pictures online. The price is right too, even with shipping.

We use Shutterfly and we have been very pleased with the results. When you register for a new account they give you 20 or 25 free pics. We order our Christmas cards from Kodak.com. They are a little more expensive but the pic cards are sized traditionally. HTH.

W.

Walgreens.com works GREAT. You can share them, friends can order them and you can order them and pick them up at a local store for .19 a piece. Highly recommend them!

I use shutterfly.com and have been using them for about 2 years now. The pictures come out great plus the paper they use is fujipaper, which last much longer than kodak paper. When you order it tells you what sizes your particular pictures will come out best on. They don't charge for upload. Good luck!

S.

We use Photoworks, and have since my daughter was born 7 years ago--we love it--no chg to upload pix--

Shutterfly.com all the way! I use them for all my pictures.

I personally prefer to print my own pictures. I was using the Kodak printer doc. I had two of them and they just could not hold up to the volume of printing I do. I just purchased a HP photosmart printer and I love it. It prints fast, quality pics and all you have to do is insert your photo card from your camera. I have several friends though that use snapfish.com and love it. Hope you find something that works for you :)

I am kinda late in the running of responses, but have to tell you I have only had good experiences with Shutterfly. Their pre-paid plans make it really cheap to send photos and photo gifts to family members as well. Plus, I like their other novelity items (mugs, brag books, ties, personalized greetings cards I always use on my hubbie, note cards, and enlargements etc.) I have about 20 albums from the past 5 years of my life (getting married and having our first child and all the vacations in between) on their site and their site is equipped to allow you to share website (albums) with your family as well -- its lets you send a link dedicated to your own website of photos. Oh, and I have always been very pleased with their quality of work.
Let me kwow if you have any other questions I might be able to help with, Good luck

I do Costco and am very happy with quality, no charge to upload, and you can share the online album for no charge.

I use Wal-mart for prints. They look great. You can also send pictures to others, even after you edit them. I've never tried that though.....There is also Hello (I think) that some of my extended family likes to use.

I think as far as quality, I go with kodakgallery.com. I also like snapfish.com and shutterfly.com. Snapfish is very user friendly. I use all three, but it can be a pain b/c once you use one, you can upload all your friends/family's email addresses in and with one click the album is shared with everyone.

K.,

I use Snapfish, and the pictures are excellent! You can upload albums for free and e-mail them to friends and family. They can order them and print photos themselves. Or you can have them mailed from Snapfish. I usually order mine online and pick them up at Walgreens. (If you have Snapfish mail them, the photos are a different size and cropped a little bit.) Anyway, I've been really happy with it. Just visit snapfish.com to check it out.

K.,

Our family has tried several websites. The one that we found great was Winkflash.com. It took a minute to upload the pictures, but the cost and quality was great. I hope you like it.

M.

I use snapfish.com, there are really good. It is a fun website.

Good Luck,
E.

If it's pictures you want to share w/family from all over, may I suggest joining "myspace". I have joined and will soon be moving to the DFW area. That a way, people who know my family and kids can look and keep updated on everything going on. It's free to join. You can also keep family informed on what your kids are doing, ie:crawling, walking, talking. etc.

If it's the "physical" pictures you need, why not just go to walmart? You can also download them and have them print them w/out going to the store. Creative memories does it thru their website also.

hopes this helps

I LOVE SNAPSISH!!! and you get 20 prints FREE to try them out! when you refer someone say your family and they order you also get more free prints!

I've used both Snapfish.com and Walgreens.com. With both you can upload your pictures and have them sent to you or directly to family members in other cities/states. My mom lives in Colorado and with Walgreens, I have them printed right in her city and picks them up the next time she is in the store. I love it! Good luck.

Hi, K.! I have used Shutterfly for 5 years for all my sharing of photos. Printing, however, I like Costco.com. You can upload photos and have them printed within an hour at your local Costco. I've also uploaded photos and had them printed at another family member's local Costco so that they could pick up quick, cheap prints. It's cheaper AND MUCH QUICKER than mailing them or getting them from Shutterfly or other online service! I also have other people upload the photos I want to my local Coscto, then I can just run and pick them up for cents.

I just got pictures printed from www.mpix.com. OMG the quality is amazing. The color is so fantastic and you can get a Luster finish that is finger proof and fade proof. I was very very impressed and they are cheap also!

I keep my photos on snapfish.com so they don't take up room on my computer but I haven't ordered through them yet. I get all my photos for my customers through wolfcamera.com and then pick them up at Ritz Camera. I love the quality and the choices that I have through them. You can also get a membership with them for really cheap that gets your prints even cheaper. You can also get prepaid digiprint cards from them that saves you even more money and you dont have to send credit card info over the internet. You can choose gloss or matte finishes, pictures with border or without, etc. I also like them cause I can have the pictures developed at any Wolf or Ritz camera. What I mean is like my family back home in New York and Florida, when I do picks I can choose a location near them and then they pick up the prints in an hour and I dont need to worry about mailing anything to them.

I began printing digital prints at Sam's and was quite pleased with their quality. However, since then I have used Snapfish and Photoworks. Both have great quality processing, matte finish options, and great prices, not to mention how stinkin' easy it is to have your pictures delivered right to your door. I think I paid 9 cents per print last time I ordered from either of them. Both of them also offer deals periodically like free shipping and free prints. I know some folks mentioned Walgreens, and even that you can get your Snapfish prints at Walgreens. I would stay away from Walgreens. My mother is a photographer and I have some photography training, so I notice color quality, etc. in prints. I've tried Walgreens digital printing 2 or 3 times (even different stores) and every time the color has been AWFUL. My pictures have had been too blue or too green. If you put them along side the ones I've had printed elsewhere, the poor quality is obvious.

We use ritzpix.com. Haven't found better quality anywhere. You can upload for free (up to 100 photos), and it's easy to share. You can also pick up your photos at Wolf Camera so you don't have to pay for shipping, and they are usually ready in a couple of hours.

I use snapfish.com. They do not charge to upload your pictures. 4 x 6 prints are only 12 cents. The quality is like any 1 hour photo lab. I also think you can create on line albums for family to look at and they can purchase pictures too.

Shutterfly here 2. I like it better than snapfish because your friends and family don't have to join to see your photos. Also shutterfly gives you kinda your on website to keep your pictures on so you can tell someone your web add and they can just can go view.

I use Sams Club website, you can go to their site and upload the pictures. You can have them mailed to your home or pickup at the store one hour, or 2-3 day. They have good quality and good prices

Have you tried Walgreens.com? I know you can order them for about 19 cents a picture, and I think you can view them online as well. You can join for free, so it's worth a shot. Also, there's Shutterfly.com.

I have used samsclub.com several times and have been impressed with both the quality and price - particularly when I have had the photos shipped to the store instead of having them printed by the in-store 1-hour photo machines. They do not charge to upload photos, at least on line, though if you want them to display your photos for a long time you can pay a small fee to maintain space on their site. I believe you have to be a member of Sam's Club to use the service. Someone mentioned not uploading photos because someone can "snag them" off the internet. While this is true, and I don't leave photos in the Sam's Club albums long-term, I'm not really too worried about having someone decide to copy a family photo. There is no identifying information (such as address) attached to the public album, and I don't think our family photos look enough different from everyone else's family photos to draw too much interest.

Silly as this may sound, I recommend Walgreens. Their site does not charge for uploading and your family members can order 1 hour prints for pickup at any pharmacy near them. The prints look good and you don't have to pay for any that don't turn out. Plus their cheap and fast!

www.flickr.com

I love this site. Our entire family uses it across the country (and those stationed abroad). It's easy, free and I've even used to find images for work.

Hi K.,

We use Kodak Gallery (www.kodakgallery.com). No charge to upload pictures and it's easy to share albums with friends and family. We've been pleased with the pictures and they arrive quickly --- usually within 3 or 4 days.

Hi, we use Picasa2, a free download from google. You can't order prints from Picasa2, but you can edit your pictures yourself, and print them out on your own printer. I have been using it for a couple years now, and I am quite impressed with it, mainly because it's completely free. You can create slide shows, collages, and a whole slew of things I haven't even tried yet. Hope this helps! :0)

Hey K.,

I love KodakGallery.com. But you can also upload them to Snapfish.com. Either of these sites are great. I've used them both.

Take care,
A.
