Travis, For what you want to do - why not consider some sorta file-sharing website? There are many out there. The one we use is "Drop Box" -- https://www.dropbox.com They allow 2GB free storage, easy file transfers, and even create "thumbnails" and gallery views for photos uploaded into your special "Photos" folder.

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with using online photo sharing websites such Shutterfly, Picasa, Flickr, Photobucket, or the like to share and distribute publicity and event images internally. We don?t have a DAMs set up that can be accessed by multiple users (yet) and we are looking for a simple and cheap solution for allowing image users to browse publicity images that are ?fresh? and available. We would have about a dozen people that would need private access. People like publications, marketing, education, and web would be the primary users. Any comments, advise, or anecdotes are welcome... -Travis -- Travis Fullerton Assistant Photographer, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts 200 N Boulevard, Richmond, VA 23220 804.340.1538 _______________________________________________ You are currently subscribed to mcn-l, the listserv of the Museum Computer Network (http://www.mcn.edu) To post to this list, send messages to: mcn-l at mcn.edu To unsubscribe or change mcn-l delivery options visit: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/mailman/listinfo/mcn-l The MCN-L archives can be found at: http://toronto.mediatrope.com/pipermail/mcn-l/
