Cross posting from web albums

[Linda_Wells]

These sites currently allow cross posting.
www.photoisland.com
(Use auction link or it won't work)
www.homestead.com
(There is a small annual fee)
www.lycos.com
www.aol.com
cartogra.com
There is another site I accessed tonight. It's currently the only English site and sounds great for getting real photo's from your digital camera from 24p each! They also take orders from abroad!
I've sent them an email asking if they allow cross posting and hope to get an answer tomorrow, but you get 50mb free space if you open a web album.
I havent tried any of these sites. If anybody knows any more, please let us know!

Was it www.photobox.co.uk? I've been doing a bit of hunting too!

MSN allow external linking, but the urls are a mile long.

I also found a website that lists a stack of photo hosting websites with a bit of information about each of them. It's flagged the ones that it calls "Ebay OK", which I presume means you can link externally from them. It's at:

www.andromeda.com/people/ddyer/photo/albums.html

One called "Albumatic" sounded especially interesting, but it looks like you need to download some software to use it. If anyone wants to investigate it further, the link to it is:

www.basepath.com/Albumatic

Had reply from photobox. Yes, they allow cross postings. I'm really impressed with this site. Had reply from Mark. This is how you do it:
1. Make public the album in which the required image is contained.

2. Type www,photobox.co.uk/<youremailaddress> into the browser address bar. This will give you a list of all your public albums

3. Click on required album

4. Find correct image

5. You can either reference the thumbnail or the screen sized image - just right click on the correctly sized image and click on properties - the URL is the one you need to post a reference on the external site.
