Snapfish for Photo Skins, cool gifts, photo sharing and more
I love to share my photos with friends and family.  Snapfish is an EASY way to do that.   Set up a free account, upload your photos into an album you create, and voila!  Share the album with anyone you want.  

Prints with options
Anyone can order prints from the albums they're invited to view (or your own, of course) and on many occasions, I have ordered dual sets of pics for family (the second set is dirt cheap).  Snapfish processes them quickly and ships them directly to the recipient.  I love this feature, and have never been unhappy with the quality.   Best of all, you can add borders - wild or simple - to your shots when ordering.  I always prefer the thin white border and it's an option, which makes me extra happy.   The only time I was dissatisfied was when I ordered prints to be picked up near my house.  MUCH better to have Snapfish process them and mail them.    

Cool Gifts!
You can also use Snapfish to order cool photo-based gifts, even at the last minute.  This year, I ordered a phtoto mug for Father's Day, thanking my dad on the mug for a great trip he'd just taken the family on.   He was blown away that it was customized and came so soon after the trip.  

Today I see that Snapfish has added "skins".......peel and stick photos that customize iPhones, computers, PDAs, whatever gear you're packin.'   ;-)    I can imagine that will be a huge hit with teens.   I can imagine a few business applications using this feature, too.

Editing & Enhancements
Snapfish also makes it easy to rotate, crop, enhance your photos.  Once you've uploaded to your album and tweaked all the photos to your liking, you can start to play with the album itself, captioning, rearranging, etc.  It's easy to use and highly customizable. 

The Bottom Line:  Libby Loves It!

Sounds like a cool site. I keep telling myself that I need to get the pictures organized and do something like that.

Thanks Libby! This has given me great ideas for X-Mas gifts! Cheers!

another con, I find the price to be high unless there is a special, especially when you compare quality to other sites. Walgreens is great at the gifts and prices.
