Photo site for a club.


I am looking for a site on the web where the members of our walking group can post their photos and other members can look at them.

Needs to be:

Easy to get into.
Only invited members can view and not viewable by the public at large.
Easy for each member to upload photos.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks.

Warning: Stay away from imgur then. Albums might be 'secret' or 'private' but the images are still viewable on the internet at large. This means that they will not be searchable, nor will they be on your profile page. But someone *might* be able to guess the URL of the image and see it.

Depends on what you really want. If all you need to do is to upload/download, then you could use FTP or something similar. If you want to be able to actually view them over the internet without "downloading" the file, then you could setup a normal apache server and use a .htaccess to require a password.

EDIT: I just re-read the original post, and it looks like you're looking for an online service, not something that you can install on your own server. My bad!

My recommendation would be for your club to start its own website. That would give you full control of access your materials and photographs.
