I am looking for a way to share pictures online for a
non-profit cause.
For many years, I have been the semi-official graduation
photographer for the Florence Crittenton School in Denver,
a school for pregnant and parenting teens. In the past I
made paper prints, at my own expense, and had the school
distribute them to the graduates who are not always easy
to find after graduation.
I would like to find an on-line solution to supplement or
replace the paper prints. The requirements include:
Limiting access to the graduates and friends, either by
giving them a passcode or allowing them to request admission
to a moderated group.
Ability to for users to download images or purchase
prints, without adding on any payment for me.
Not setting up a site where members can share their
own content.
Flickr groups come close, but it seems that the group members
would also have the ability to add their own content, and I
don't really want to be responsible for a site where a bunch
of teens can contribute un-moderated content.
I do like the fact that Flickr allows you to order prints through
Snapfish, so they can be delivered directly to a local
Walgreens for pickup.
Yes -- this is not Linux-related, but it is a pressing need
for a worthy cause.
Thanks,
Vince
