HP updates Snapfish photo site

Hewlett-Packard announced on Monday that it has added new functionality to Snapfish, its free photo storage Web site. For example, Group Rooms, a new photo-sharing tool, allows users to create their own Web page, with a unique URL, to which the page creator, and invited friends and family, can add and view photos. Group members receive e-mail updates when the "room" has been updated.

Snapfish has also enhanced existing features such as its services for creating calendars, greeting cards and hardcover coffee table books. In addition to the main photo of the month on a Snapfish calendar, users can add additional photos or text to individual days. Snapfish bound books of personal photos, called Memory Books, offer more design options and book sizes. And there now are more design options for Snapfish greeting cards. The site interface has also been reorganized with new navigation tools and sorting options for stored photos. HP acquired Snapfish in March 2005.

Macs Not Welcome

Hello, CNET--

Even after the Snapfish upgrade, some features, like making
albums, are still not available to Mac users.

Don't feel too blue

Making an album may be "available" to Windows users like myself, but not to worry, it doesn't seem to work. I've been trying to give them my money for an album for a week now, with no success. Some of the web pages, such as entering your credit card information, crash when you click 'continue', so see, actually they're saving you aggravation. Mary
