I live abroad and I post a lot of pictures of LO (at least I used to) for my friends and family. I've been using FB this whole time because its just the most convenient way so far, however, I'm now looking for another way.
Where do you share pictures of your LO online? Something that's easy for me to upload would be ideal, I no longer care if others need to have/start an account to be able to see my pictures. I figure anyone that wants to see them won't think it's too much of a hassle.

I had been using FB until last week, but a post on here got me thinking I don't want to use that anymore. So now I'm thinking shutterfly. I'm subscribing so I get some good ideas!

I use a Tumblr account and share a picture a day. I also use Facebook and email.

I share a photo a day (The Daily Baby) with an email mailing list and have an Apple photo stream for other shots.

I prefer email. My list is only family, and they like to make prints/books out of pics. I send occasional shots to close friends, but rarely (photos are big files, man!). If I make a book on Shutterfly, I usually buy copies for family, but I have given them access in the past, too. What about Picasa? Some of my family use it and give me access. It seems easy.

I think I have a good photo sharing system down. I use Flickr for sharing a small (okay, medium-sized) album of photos with all friends and relatives - you can view it if you're friends on Flickr, OR if you have a "guest pass" link to the album, so the viewers don't need accounts. I'll periodically put the link up on Facebook so my Facebook friends and relatives can go to Flickr and see the album.
I also put up a large album of photos on Picasa - it's very easy to use (it syncs to folders on your computer, so you can just drop new photos in the folders and the web albums automatically update), and people can order prints from Picasa, which my mom likes to do.
Plus I'll email random photos to random people from time to time.

Shutterfly has a share site option now where you can post pictures, videos, journal entries, and milestones. Kind of like a blog. I just started uploading but haven't sent out the link to share yet.
