Sony is offering the facility of storing unlimited photos online at Sony ImageStation. They also offer other services like printing & others. But the thing of interest is that you can create a free account & upload all your images. You can create your albums & put up all your pics on the website. No limit on the size. You can also share your photos with your friends/family. They'll be sent a link to your album via email. They need to create an account so that they can view your album online. I uploaded about 150 MB of images taken from my camera & my friend (Srini's) camera. It took about an hour to upload them.
Not just the images are displayed there, but also a lot of information is shown. The information abt pics not only includes size & resolution, but also, date & time when the image was taken, the make of the camera used, the camera model, exposure time, whether flash used or not, aperture, exposure time, focal length, metering mode, white balance & what not?? I did not know that my jpeg image contained all this info !!!
Of course, nothing in the world comes for free... The catch with Sony Imagestation is that you cannot view the images at the original size. you can only view smaller resized images. If you want to view full size images, you need to upgrade your membership by paying them money... :D
Another catch is that, not just other viewers, but even the person who has uploaded the pics, cannot download a full-size version!!!
