Being able to just hand out an URL instead of burning several CDs or repeatedly handing out and collecting some USB drive if you want to exchange high resolution photos sounds like an advantage to me.

Email is still no alternative. Gmail, for example, has a 25 MB limit. Good for maybe five photos. Something like dropbox might be. (But you cannot share there if your friends don’t have accounts.) – edit: Ah, just noticed that’s seemingly also the case with divvyshot.

Well, that’s a problem you should work on – I cannot and will not force my friends to sign up for anything when I just want to share photos. That sort of defeats the whole purpose. There already is a unholy proliferation of all kinds of services you need a password for. That’s nice if all you want is a nice collection of great tools (you can pick and chose and end up only with a handful) but not so nice if you have to force your friends to sign up when you want to use the thing for one of its main use cases.

I bet you could make it possible to download and maybe even contribute (adding photos by sending them via Email, maybe?) without needing to sign up. Your use cases should work without me having to force people to sign up and hate me and your service as a consequence.

I know your whole signup process is dead simple (make it even simpler be not having people type their password twice) and you don’t even need to use your real Email address and you don’t even send out a welcome Email (all great things, really, I wish everyone were like you) but I know quite a few people (and not just nerds) who are allergic to any kind of signup form.

I have to correct myself once again. You can actually upload photos without signing up, just (as I suggested :) by sending them by Email. Cool! Just tested it, works great. That feature is a bit hidden, though, but that makes for a nice experience when you discover it :)

I still think you cannot download full resolution photos without signing up. Did I miss anything?
