Help.
I need advice on a photo sharing site.
I need an easy to use site for clients.
Background: As a "value-added" service to our clients, I am offering "stock" photos that they can use free of charge. These will be general photos, as well as photos that are focused on their particular needs. For example, a selection of transportation related images that can be used by clients that advocate for increased road funding.
I have been using dropbox, which works fine for image storage and access, but it doesn't offer the visual appeal of photosharing sites like Flickr. On the other hand, the only way I can find to protect images on Flickr is to limit access to "friends and family," which means a client has to be signed up with Flickr to access the images.
Here is what I want:
An appealing, easy to navigate front-end so clients can look at a selection of images without having to dig;
A simple password protection, so I can share the password with clients, but they do not have to be a "member" or sign up for anything to access my images;
Sufficient storage space (preferably 1tb) without it costing me an arm and a leg.
Protection of the images from theft by the hosting company. In other words, I don't want Getty Images or anyone else claiming that they can sell my images simply because I've put them up on their server.
Any recommendations?
