First, damn good domain name. Very appropriate. Second. Damn nice photo site. Third, damn good domain name!

I used to teach photography and still avidly study images and take pictures.

What program did you use to achieve this look? Very easy to navigate, good user interface, nice clean look.

Overall I like it very much.

I like the looks of the site very much. On the home page, the only thing I would change is speed up the slide show.

As you site grows, and it will, physically selecting random photos could perhaps become a daunting task. Again, a slide show or several photos side by side changing would be nice.

You should plan for your growth now and how to accomodate it. If you do get into this as a paid service, then of course you will want to feature many of your photographers' work as you possibly can to promote not only their work but your site. Customer satisfaction and word of mouth promotion is key to any business venture's success.

Oddly enough, a colleague of mine and I were just discussing and looking at photo sites not too long ago. She is a budding professional.

It is important for her, and myself and any other photo nuts, to protect images from unauthorized downloads. Your download interface and capability is very nice and easy to operate. That I have already tested.

But many photographers will want images to be copyright protected by a watermark system or perhaps manually marking them.

Unless this is purely a venture for photo "sharing", not so much as a payment type system.

That could easily be worked out with simply adding some links to the photographers own site and let them take care of the business end on their end.

I will join. Doing so will also allow me to test your uploading capabilties.

More importantly I will help get the word out to folks and photographers I know.

I think you've got something to be proud of!

Wow Thank you
The name took me a month of entering names at 1and1 to see if they where taken and I was watching tv as always while on the computer and they said something about a movie premier and Bingo!!
I wish I could take full credit for the site but just the concept is by me. I need to give credit to www.vernerwebstudio.com (Mike) Very helpfull and hes also a photo nut like me. I got lucky when I found him.
I will have the slide show speed up I agree its slow. Also the photos for the front page are selected by the user in the edit photo under there photos as you will see if you sign up. I also agree with the photo protection issue and think most pros would add there own mark in photoshop but I will also be changing the way the downloades work. I want the users to ask for permission to download a photo from the owner of the photo and if given permission then they can download the photo. There are many things I want to add to the site but its all about time and money and Im limited on both. I will be adding things slowly over the next couple of months, Then I will start to charge when I get things setup the way I would like it to be. This is a hobby for me and not my buisness, but I would like the site to pay for itself and maybe more. Thank you very much for all the good words and hope to see you on the site.

Already using the site. Very easy to use. Beats the hell out some others I have seen, and used, AND PAID FOR! BRAVO to the designer! Will recommend this to a few other photo nuts I know.

Nice site. Really neat and clean.

My first thought was "OH!!!! Yet another photosharing"

But when I saw the site I can tell one thing that this site has the potential.

5 stars. [Out of 5 ]

I pay annually for posting unlimited albums at www.PhotoSite.com. Guess what?

I won't be re-newing!

I really like the features and the ability to download in different sizes and resolutions.

I liked the design and simplicity. Is it possible to share photos with a designated number of people? I'm looking for something like the "group" folder I have on eSnips, where I invite specific people to the folder and only they have access to it. I think that having only private or public as options is too limited.
Very cool site, congratulations!

blatant

The domain, and design is great! I will use this site for my future uploads, great job.

I most certainly agree with ALL the above. You've done your homework, the site is easy to use, the parameters (free, unlimited, private) are well placed, easy to understand and even for the novice user it's a "no guess work" site. Very nicely done. <--- the good

The improvements:

While i like the idea of photosharing, there are many sites out there offering something VERY similar or identical, how are you setting your site apart from the rest. I think you're well on the way, i am missing the "lightning strike" that creates my DESIRE to come back to your site.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=267309
The random and most popular picture feature is a great idea, can you top that with one more thing that creates return user content?

One feature i would add, get some level of ability that users can order their photos printed out, maybe even framed, let them customize photos to be sent out for christmas, weddings, etc. you get my drift. I think it would put the site to even more usability than being "just" a photo sharing site. I guess i am pointing towards a creative merger of photosharing with caffee express - just improved.

Love the logo and moving curtain, represents everything that a user would identify the "premier" with.

The "Learn More" creates a 404 Error, but i'm sure you're aware of that and you're in the process of changing that.

All in all [the wrap up]
Idea: Great
Domain name: Great
Concept and presentation: Great
Business Idea/Leveraging your power for future sales: Needs work

*Thumbs Up*

Thanks to all for looking at the site. I am working on many upgrades for the site and they will be coming out over the next two months. Many will be a first for a photo sharing site stay tuned! There is so much I want to do but time and money seems to be able to slow me down( I hate that) Someone pay 7 figures for one of my domain names and this problem will be solved. I agree with that there needs to be more of a reason to return to the site I would like to hear your ideas for this, any and all would be great. Photo contests are one idea but many are doing it.

I also would like to know if you like the option to download the photos because im thinking about changing that so other users have to ask permission to download your photos.
I was also thinking about making it possable to sell your photos on the site as this may be a great reason to return to the site.
Thanks, dont be shy tell what you think.

I have not been on that site but I will check it out. Thanks

it's a decent site, but my eyes don't like the dark color very much ....
