Export Galleries to Other Sites
Overview
Save yourself time and increase your exposure by exporting your galleries from PhotoShelter to these sites:
Exporting a gallery
- Go to the gallery you'd like to export.
- On the left hand side, click "Facebook/Flickr/Social" from the "Export Options" menu
- Follow the instructions for the appropriate site
Facebook is a social networking site of over 300 million members. Through our integration, you can either upload images to a new album in Facebook, or you may post a link on your Wall that includes thumbnail previews for the first few images in your gallery, all of which will link back to their homes on your PhotoShelter site.
By clicking "Connect," you will be prompted via a pop-up window to log into your Facebook account. (If you are already logged into Facebook within the same Internet browser, you will not be prompted.)
By default, no images that you upload to Facebook will be watermarked, but if you check the "Watermark Images" box, we will apply the watermark you have on file to the images that you are sending.
Please note that Facebook has a 200-image maximum for any single export, so if your PhotoShelter gallery exceeds 200 images, only the first 200 will be sent.
Post to Flickr
Flickr requires you to login and allow PhotoShelter to transfer photos. You need a Flickr/Yahoo! account to use this feature. You need to set your export options before you click the "Export to Flickr" button.
The first time you use the feature, you will be taken to the Flickr login screen.
After you successfullly login, you will have to authorize PhotoShelter as a third party application to post to your account.
Once you have authorized the application, the transfer will begin immediately. There will be no real-time indication that the transfer is occurring. You can login to Flickr to see the images in your photo stream. Note: your Flickr privacy settings determine whether images are public or not.
SportsShoooter
SportsShooter is a community of top sports photographers around the world. Enter your username/password. The mechanism will only export the first 10 images of a gallery at a fixed size of 500 pixels per SportsShooter's requirements.
