Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

Two questions:

1. For those of you that created website for guests to share pictures from your wedding, what do you recommend? I know shutterfly has a good setup. Anything else? I don't want to do Kodak, as the guests cannot download from there.

2. Can you post pictures of the cards you made and put out on the tables asking guests to upload pictures? How many did you make? Where/how did you print them?

Thanks!

Re: Photo Share Sites

We made one photo card per guest...we set them up with the menus on the table. We used a site through our apple mobile me account. We LOVE it...so easy to use!

Re: Photo Share Sites

I am using shutterfly because it is so easy to set up. I also set it up that the guest do not have to enter a password to go to the site....so the site is public.

The card that I am using is going to double as a favor tag too. So I am making as many cards as I have favors.

I actually posted a topic earlier with a poll for my thank you/photo share cards to get opinions from people. Check that out and let me know what you think too!

Re: Photo Share Sites

I made our website on shutterfly.

I printed cards the other morning. I took blank 3x5 cards and put them in the printer!!! They're not the most elegant things, but they get the info across and I figured would be convenient for guests to stick in their wallet or pocket.

(I honestly debated just printing on the inside of the table seating cards... I'm such a nut!)

I only made 30 cards. I can't imagine more than 30 people with digital cameras. I only have 110 people coming, and of those 30 are close family / parents / BP (ie: at the RD).

Good enough for me!

I can show you later if you want... but I'm sure you'd rather do something more elegant.

I'm all about practical!

Re: Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

Any thoughts on photobucket? Someone I worked with mentioned that as well, but shutterfly seems more popular.

Re: Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

I used photobucket! I made it a 'group album' so guests would not have to enter a password.

It's just a matter of preference, I'm sure either will be fine!

Re: Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

I used photobucket... I have all of my regular pics on an account there and I love it bc once someone posts a pic there, it automatically gives you a link so you can post the pic on any other website.

Here are my cards, super simple since I did them myself.

Re: Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

We did the site through Snapfish, you can make 'group rooms' so you can make a room for your wedding.

We did the Vistaprint 250 free business card thing. I am going to probably attach them to our favors along with the placecards... just might be easier for guests to take and for the RH to set up... less likely to get lost maybe

Re: Photo Share Sites for Guests to Upload Wedding Pictures

I used the shutterfly family site. I printed the website and instructions on the back of our menus. I don't have photos on this computer.
