Top 10 Online Photo Sharing Websites
The age of digital photography has not been popularized by the ease with which we shoot or edit the photographs, but the ease with which they are shared worldwide! As with the advent of digital photography, Internet has also enhanced its reach simultaneously on a global level. And this has led to the mushrooming of websites that cater to photo sharing needs of the enthusiasts. However, a few of these online photo sharing sites stand out with the help of their excellent quality and popularity.
Flickr – It is the most popular photo online sharing website that has gained the maximum exposure worldwide. Started as a site for sharing video-game screenshots in 2002, it has incorporated free amateur accounts and $25/ year Pro-accounts that offer unlimited uploads, prints, and other features. Video-sharing too has been recently added to the website’s host of features.
Shutterfly – It is also one of the leading photo sharing websites preferred by college forums and university forums across the world. Uploading, printing, editing and mail-to-order photo prints are available as services from this website. One of the leading features that allow university students’ forums to take active interest in the site is its ability to let groups and teams to share and use photos on other websites, provided they have the login and password.
Webshots – Founded in 1995, it is one of the oldest photo online sharing websites that allows you to upload, share and use custom prints of 1000+ photos and images. On possessing a Pro-account, the user can have an advertisement-free home page for uninhibited sharing and usage of photos!
PhotoBucket – It had the top spot in photo sharing website lists, and still has a cult fan following – especially, among MySpace users and bloggers. Providing ‘easy to use’ tools to make slideshows, share albums and other online photo sharing facilities, it has also supplemented its range of services with new-age technologies to keep the young crowd flocking to the site.
Smugmug – This site has become a premium choice for professional photographers, though it is also a great option for novice photographers. The only issue with Smugmug is that there is no free account available, although online photo sharing tools like Smugglr has kept the members busy and happy!
Tiny Pic – Tiny Pic is one of the latest additions to the list of photo online sharing websites that has earned a place in the top 10 through its sheer innovative and user-friendly feel. You can also share your favorite videos with the images on the site, such as a documentary on London’s life along with stills on the same subject!
Picasa Web Albums – An able online counterpart to the desktop application Picasa, Google’s Picasa Web albums let you create and share albums and upload almost 1GB of free photos. It also helps you buy extra storage that can be used in tandem for your Gmail account.
Fotki – Fotki has introduced a novel feature that was yet to be explored by online photo sharing websites – photo contests. With unlimited photo storage spaces for blogs and low-priced prints, Fotki has certainly become one of the most admired options for amateur and weekend photographers eager to share their ‘masterpieces in the making’!
MyPhotoAlbum – Started in 2004, it is for those who wish to keep personalized photographs and share albums among peer groups and family. It makes the photo online sharing experience better than the conventional upload and prints, with a lenient attitude towards niche photo album creation.
RockYou – This is not the usual photo online sharing website. It, instead, allows members to download and implement different widgets and applications for an optimal usage of photo sharing on similar websites. More of a complementary website than a mainstream success, it helps your experience with the photo sharing websites improve drastically!
Thus, registering with one of these sites will give you a taste of how creative and tasteful the art of digital photography and photo online sharing has become today!
