About SharePhotos.us
SharePhotos.us is a flexible web application for sharing photos with people you trust.
SharePhotos.us is NOT not a good way to archive your photos; keep your original files safely stored elsewhere!
In uploading photos to SharePhotos.us, you grant permission to other users and guests to view and download your photos. Do not use SharePhotos.us if you do not want to grant others that much access to your photos.
SharePhotos.us uses email addresses to send necessary messages regarding account setup, password reset requests, and setting up guest accounts. If another user grants you guest access to a new group, their use of your email address lets us detect that you are already a user and just grant you additional access. SharePhotos.us does not use ANY information you provide for ANY marketing purposes.
SharePhotos.us is a personal project, not a commercial product.
One person is the designer, programmer, documentation writer, and bug fixer.
Please understand that security for SharePhotos.us will not be up to the standards of commercial products.
If you choose to use SharePhotos.us, you do so at your own risk.

John Barstow started developing SharePhotos.us in February 2017,
borrowing essential logic from the "sample application" from
the Ruby on Rails Tutorial, a book and screencast series that Michael Hartl created to teach web development with Ruby on Rails.
