crystal_schutz Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 I am interested in a new site, but I need something that allows my bride and groom to select which images they wish to keep private. most brides I know don't want to show off their nudies. I also need a site that allows me to offer gift certificates and perfeably my own discounts. Does colleges.net allow this? If not does anything else that you know of? Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lightrasp Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Answer: Password protect the accounts for your customers. & Question:when you state on your web "...archival quality DVD�s that so far have proven to last for up to 300 years." would you please clarify that statement?

paul - Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 "<i>I use archival quality DVD's"</i><p>Manufacturers like to make such claims, but their guarantees only provide for a blank replacement disc if (more like <i>when</i>) the discs fail to last. So far, even the best "gold" discs have been shown to fall far short of predictions. And how many people realize that how a disc is stored can have a major impact on its lifespan?

marv_stasak___southfield__ Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Paul, <So far, even the best "gold" discs have been shown to fall far short of predictions.> Based on what data that you know about? Just curious. Delkin is claiming 300 years on their Discs. Granted, none of us will be around then, nor will present recording technology even be relevant, but I would like to be able to state with some confidence that the discs will last far, far longer than any aluminum coated disc. What data are you accessing that would suggest the 300 years is way off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennifer_stone1 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 In regards to Collages.net I do not believe there is a way to keep specific images "private." If a bride does not want certain images published I take them off the site. The site is password protected, so only people who are invited to see the site have access to it. Unfortunately Collages.net does not offer gift certicates (would be a nice option). You can set your own prices for prints, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron_lee___minneapolis__m Posted February 20, 2006 Share Posted February 20, 2006 All images in a collages.net gallery are public (with the password.) You cannot set permissions for individual images. Collages.net looks great, and even has a decent back end, but they are horrifyingly exepensive! I'm switching to smugmug.com You could do this a number of ways on smugmug.com. The simplest would be to just create a gallery and make it private. Then, only the people who you give the direct URL can access it, and you can put a password on it, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
