Hi Everyone

I am in the process of looking for an APP so I can display a picture of each of my smurfs. I am also wanting to add a short title/description to each picture. Does anyone have any suggestions?

The APP will be used on an IPad.

Thanks

Kath

Sorry for being so ignorant..but what is an APP?

An APP is a software program for a smartphone/tablet.

Well, I did not know what was an APP for I never use internet on the smartphone. Maybe one day if it works quickly !

For my pictures, I am on Flickr but I was told Instagram is more friendly and less "artistic" : the thing is it belongs to Facebook and therefore asks you to agree with their knowledge of your private life, something I can't agree with...
But maybe you search for something different, I don't know.

Tell us what you choose, Kath.

Hi Guys

I thought I would explain a bit more of my situation.

I am currently using an APP called SortShots which has been reasonably good. I think there is a free version and a paid version. I went with the paid version as I have over 3000 pictures. It allows you to label each picture which is great; 20001 Papa WG and create groups. Though I have a problem re-tagging a picture if for example it is in the wrong group.

I agree with Arno that I don't want to be Instagram as it is connected with Facebook. Though I did not think of Flickr so that could be option.

Any other suggestions would be most useful.

Cheers

Kath

Sorry I can't help because I only work with my pictures on my laptop. I use Instagram a lot on my phone lately because I love the editing program, but I don't sort the pictures with it or name them.

I love the free photo editing program Photoscape which I use for simple edits (like website pictures) on my laptop, but not sure if they have an Iphone/Ipad version of it.

From my short experience on Flickr I would say you should explore and try it :
- you can post 1 TB pictures, with name, comment, tags and place them in groups you create : it is very easy.
- you can rename and modify, remove pictures : it is less intuitive to me, but still easy I think.
but of course it is not a website, it is a sharing platform, so people can see and download your pics.
I can send you the link to my Flickr if you want.

Thanks for the kind offer Arno.

I think I might use Flickr as it appears to be really good. I am still trying to work out how it will go on the iPad. I will let you know how I go.

Cheers

On the weekend, I had to upgrade my IPad and initially I did not have enough space. The app I was using for my smurf photos was huge. So I decided to delete it and make the move to Flickr.

This was after reading Arno's review and looking at some of the creative smurf photos. I am so glad I did as it is very easy to use. Initially I could not work out how to get my titles to come across but I have now.

For those of you looking for something to display your photos and you don't want Facebook, check it out.
