Dear John , Webshots has been acquired from American Greetings and the original founders are introducing a new service called Smile by Webshots. Smile by Webshots is an innovative photo management service for today’s modern family – helping you store all your photos, find your memories and effortlessly share life’s moments with the people you are closest to. We are transferring your membership plus your photos and videos to Smile by Webshots. Just log in by December 1 using your Webshots member name: ******* (and password) to confirm your account and get started. IMPORTANT: the current Webshots site will be going away as of December 1. If you do not want to come over to Smile, please download and save your photos to your desktop or anywhere else you choose. Sincerely, The Smile by Webshots Team PS.

I always liked Webshots. Let's hope that never happens to Youtube...

So was it free and now they are charging? I'm not familiar with the service.

Was free for low volume usage, annual charge for huge volume.
I have used it for over 10 years. These are my stats for public viewable folders on Webshots overall Photos 6381 views 806642 downloads 8147 The whole site contains 692 million photos !! Which will not be available after December 1 2012 when it is closed down. They have had a management buy out after the company that bought Webshots 5 years ago decided it was "not part of their core business". The new Smiles service does not make photos available to the general public - only to people you say can see them. |
