Hello
I belong to a few closed groups involving my Navy past.
People in the groups including Facebook, often post pics of our boat, with and without people in them.
All of the photos are scans of pics from the 60’s through 80’s.
The pics can be currently downloaded in Facebook and are often small in size and needing cleaning up.
I want to set up a SmugMug gallery where the group can share the pics . Some of the pics would be resized and fixed and offered back to the group on the same page. Most of them photos have no original author identified but all are from crew members. Also often back then the ships photographer would snap pics of people on the boat and give them a copy.
The smugmug gallery would have the shopping cart available where, members could order prints etc.
My account is not a higher tier, so all pricing would be default with nothing going to me.
Is this something that would be seen as acceptable, and would there be any issues?
This is a feature in smugmug for events like weddings where you allow guests to upload cell phone photos for all to see.
Thanks
Jim

I use Smugmug for my baseball photos - I have NO security on the image and it can be downloaded at NO cost.
