Avanquest SendPhotos comprises:
SendPhotos Mobile software is installed on a mobile phone, making it easy to share snaps on the move and keep personal pages on www.sendphotos.com continuously up to date. Within two clicks, photos taken on a phone are uploaded and automatically backed up. Selected friends and family can view photos moments after they have been taken to discover exactly what their loved ones are doing and where they are. A convenient Set-up Wizard walks users step-by-step through the creation of their SendPhotos Web login and general application settings. Furthermore, the software allows mobile subscribers to avoid costly data charges that can otherwise occur when uploading photos whilst roaming.
Avanquest SendPhotos is the only all-in-one free photo sharing solution that provides certified support for more than 140 mobile phones from leading manufacturers in the market today. This includes the world's first Android-powered smartphone, the T-Mobile G-1, Apple's latest iPhone and Blackberry's Bold and Pearl handsets. The SendPhotos iPhone version even includes a photo editor with easy-to-use control of cropping, colouring, contrast and fun features that enable smudge and text addition to images.
SendPhotos PC enables people to organise, edit and share their digital photos while offline or online. Users can upload, download and synchronise photos and albums on their own personal pages at www.sendphotos.com, allowing only a selected few or the entire world to see them. Those with access can download HD photos in original size and ‘share back' by uploading their own for a comprehensive online photo album and photo exchange. An editing tool is also included in SendPhotos to reduce redeye, crop pictures, correct colour and change the contrast of photos, making it convenient to enhance an image before sharing it.
SendPhotos also allows photos to be optimised for rapid download so that users without broadband internet access can obtain the images quickly.
SendPhotos Web provides users with personal photo pages at www.sendphotos.com for storing, uploading and sharing digital pics. The space can be accessed from any internet connection in the world, so digital photos and digital images can be backed up, stored and synchronised regardless of location. Privacy is a priority at SendPhotos and access to digital photos is only available to authorised family and friends.
An easy to use interface makes it simple for people to arrange digital pics and holiday snaps into friend and family albums or animated slide shows. A simple drag and drop function with animated icons makes it easy to transfer photos online to external websites such as Picasa, Flickr and social networking websites such as MySpace.
Avanquest SendPhotos is available in English, French, Spanish, Italian and German editions at launch and provides both remote printing capabilities and the ability to embed a photo album created in SendPhotos to a website or blog.
