PhotoRocket now has Galleries

PhotoRocket, the sharing photos service for Windows, Mac and iPhone, now has Galleries for groups to share images.

photorocket02.jpgLaunched in February 2011, PhotoRocket is the ideal solution for busy people who want to share more photos more often; no email attachments or upload buttons for photo sharers; no registration required for recipients to view or download full resolution photos. Now the app even has Galleries.

PhotoRocket started by being a free photo sharing service and downloadable apps for Windows, Mac and iPhone, enabling instant and simultaneous photo sharing to friends and family, social networks like Facebook, Twitter, and popular photo sharing destinations like Flickr and Shutterfly.

PhotoRocket brings simplicity to recipients of photos, as well, because there is no registration required to view or download photos. Friends and family get conveniently notified by email that photos are ready for viewing without having bulky attachments to clutter their inbox. Recipients can immediately re-share photos to their own friends and favorite sites, all within seconds after confirming their email. They do not need to download a PhotoRocket app to re-share.

 

PhotoRocket also eliminates scattered web links and file attachments by consolidating images into a personal viewing experience that includes all the photos shared or received from anyone else who uses PhotoRocket. Not only are photos conveniently archived by sender and date, but PhotoRocket makes it simple to view or download full resolution images at any time, from virtually any location.

Now, with the PhotoRocket Galleries, the creators made the simplest way for groups to share the photos they took together, all in one place. You just need to drop your photos into a customizable gallery, share a link from your gallery to your friends and family so they can view, add and even comment the photos in the gallery. It’s as simple as that. Try it at www.photorocket.com.

Based on this article, I checked-out PhotoRocket, liked what I saw and signed up. I am sorry to report that PhotoRocket no longer supports uploads to either Flickr or Shutterfly - and those two destinations were the main attraction for me.

Iam sorry to hear aboutyour trouble, but the FAQ at Photorocket does say that:

"PhotoRocket currently supports sharing your photos to several 3rd party web services: Facebook, Flickr, Shutterfly and Twitter. You can enable sharing to these sites, either from within the PhotoRocket app or at photorocket.com within "Settings". Under "Connect to Destinations" click "connect" next to the web service you want, then follow the instructions to give PhotoRocket permission to share your photos there.

And also the press-release I had about the system. I did not try it now, only tested the system when it came out, earlier this year.

Jose,

I know it says that Flickr is supported on their FAQ page, but after I posted a question asking about uploading to Flickr and Shutterfly, I got a reply from PhotoRocket saying that that article was to be depreciated. Here's the link to their article with the depreciation - https://support.photorocket.com/entries/20276168

Kind of takes some of the wind out of the sails of their video, doesn't it?
