Guests' picture sharing site?

Hey y'all,

I'd like to make little cards with a website address printed so guests can go and upload all of their pics of the wedding ceremony/reception and we can all see them -- but I can't figure out where/how to do one.  I made one on Picassa but I think that the guest would have to have a google account to access it.  

Any thoughts or ideas??  Thanks!!  :)

  • We used Wedding Turtle and really liked it because guests don't have to put in an email address or make an account. The website is catered to this exact situation. You set up an account and can choose to password protect it or not. Then guests just go to your URL and upload! It's that easy. They can also put approximate times on each photo, so at the end of it, you essentially have a "timeline" of your wedding day from all your guests' photos. Guests can also choose to upload and email the pics directly to you.

  • Oh wow, that sounds PERFECT!!  Thank you so much!! :)
  • My wedding website is from Project wedding. They offered a option to have a a album where people can upload their own pictures. I did just for the fun of it. You can check it out if you like.

  • What about Shutterfly or Photobucket? I was thinking of using one of those sites, but I don't want my guests to have to sign up for an account.

    You should use www.trycapsule.com !!!! I'm telling you it is way better than the pther mentioned sites. I've tried them all; Capsule is the best because it has soo much mroe to offer then just guests uploaded photos. 
  • I signed up for Wedding Turtle today and played around with it. I got my confirmation email  about 2 hours after I signed up for it. They mail you 250 free cards with your site on it. (They come in green & white, but you can pay ($10) to change the color options.) You can also email site info to your guests. You can plug in wedding info (Ceremony and Reception Time & Location(s), Wedding Attire, Contact Info) and password protect it if you want. There are 2 options for guests to upload photos - they can email them to your site address directly to the site from their computer.  Guests have to enter their email and name to upload photos, but no other registration is needed. Guests get a confirmation email saying that the photos have been uploaded and a separate email with a code if they want to edit a photo they've uploaded. (It doesn't look like you can edit photos other than rotating them.) They are partnered with fotomoto for ordering prints, but you can also download them to your computer.
