CANON have IRISTA, which may be similar to NIKON Image space mentioned earlier.

I tried several options a few weeks ago and settled on Smugmug as the best option. It's $8/mo and you can cancel at any time. Options are there for viewers to order prints and it keeps you out of the loop as far as having to deal with handling and distributing orders. All you do is load them and smugmug does the rest. I have several thousand images hosted from our local high school sports teams.

I used to put pictures on Flickr; stopped because I could do it, only one at a time; is there now a way to upload a batch of photos ?

I do what you want to do all the time for my coaching son's college soccer team. I use Facebook and create an album. Most games I end up with 150 to 200 keepers.

I have found Facebook only offers thumbnails. I may be missing something but that is what I find.
The upside of this, if the 4-H has a Facebook page, is that the members can see the images and download lower res images. If you provide contact info and they want higher res images or prints, you might have a little side business.

Have you tried Google Photos? I do that for my mission trips. I put each trip into an album. Then I send the people a link to that album. You do have to have people's e-mails, though.

You could set up an account on a site like smug mug that would allow people to view the photos and even pay to get copies of the photos. That is what I have done and it had worked well for me.

Have a 4-H Horse group that would like pictures of their event. I take lots for my own use but would like to make them available to the public for a short period of time, do not want to deal with 100 parents/grandparents looking for a specific child. Would be at no charge by me, ideally they could simply review and download the photo they want. If they were online for 48 hrs would be long enough.
I have never tried this but here goes: Consider opening a Walgreen's photo account. Upload your photos, and I think there is a way to allow others to order prints and pay for them. Check it out.

I see that Smugmug does not upload Tiff Files or Raw Files. I was wondering if anybody knows a web site that would enable me to upload these file types.
You can upload any file type to Google Drive.

I am a big fan of Smugmug. Not too expensive and unlimited images. It offers many different types of viewing arrangements from private viewing requiring passwords to a general viewing audience and everything in between.
