Camera club photo sharing
Feb 20, 2014 07:14:12 #
Looking for a way for my photo club to share photos back and forth and comment. Kind of like uhh, but only need to communicate with 10 people. Set up a blog on blogspot, but not sure it will work. They can't seem to post. Any ideas.???

Facebook. Set up a group page only visible to those who join your group

Sometimes the best answers are the most simple. :-)
The only small reason I might disagree is that facebook has about the worst photo licensing policies of any website I know of. Any picture you post is basically available to facebook and any of its affiliates, which seems to include advertisers.

Thought about fb, but wasn't sure that was a good idea, although it works. Hadn't Thot about group email, but for photos? Don't they lose quality in that process? I have had trouble with that trying to send pics of baptisms to the church. Had to take a flash drive. Technology can sometimes be a problem.

A photo should not lose quality in an email, but that is not a very convenient way to share large pictures as well as comment threads.

The blog does seem like the right tool. Can they not post their pictures, or even comments? If it's just the pictures, they could send the pic to you and you could post it, then everyone could comment.

We have one set up from local group members that did the worldwide photowalk. It's also served as a great way to keep in touch with those people.

Actually Thot of that, as they can comment, but can't post pics. Thanks, and that could work.
