Share photos by sending album links to family and friends

Sharing photos probably was one of your main things you had in mind when you bought that digital camera. You’ve already found out that sending out high-quality photos through e-mail is very tedious at best, and often simply impossible, because good photos are just too large to send by e-mail.

To share photos with Pixagogo, you don’t send those heavy photo files as attachments, you just upload your photos to our servers once and we’ll give you back a compact link ( an "URL", e.g. http://albums.pixagogo.com/9125395205) pointing to an online "album".

Essentially, that album is like a little web site with its own private address that will remain unchanged, even as you update the album over time. Only those people that you have somehow provided the link to will ever be able to access it. You can obviously share the album by e-mailing the link to someone. Every album comes with a handy "Send to Friends" feature to do so quickly, without even firing up your e-mail program!

But you can share those album links in many ways aside from e-mail:

• put an album link on a Christmas or Birthday card,
• hand out some printable album invitation cards (handy option in every album under the "Share" tab) at the event where you’re taking pictures, even before they have been uploaded,
• put the album link on your web site
• send out the album link by SMS or other phone messaging system
• even dictate the link on the phone!

Whatever you use to get the album link across, it doesn’t matter. What counts is that your correspondents will be able to look at your albums, view your photos as fast, high-resolution full-screen slide shows (without having to install any photo software) and order prints in various sizes to be sent to their home.

Because Pixagogo offers unlimited photo storage, you can afford to leave your albums online. Unlike most other services, viewers can be sure that your albums will be exactly where they are a year and more from now. And you can update those albums in the mean time: a great platform to keep everyone visually abreast of the latest news!
