Why Choose PhotoShow?

Ordinary slideshows are a dime a dozen on the web. You (or your engineers) might have accidentally coded one up in your sleep.

PhotoShow delivers much more. Your users get the easiest, most entertaining multimedia experience available. And you get a product customized to your audience’s unique needs, that drops effortlessly into your site.

Great for Your Users...

Your users will love what PhotoShow does for their pictures:

  • Make it entertaining: Highly engaging “One Click Styles” – more than 100 and counting – for your users to personalize their shows. A single click transforms pictures into a complete storytelling experience, with music, thematic transitions, special effects, captions, and more.
  • It’s incredibly easy: Simple 1-2-3 authoring turns pictures into a PhotoShow in seconds. Or integrate Instashow to display photos and albums automatically as PhotoShows, with zero user effort. Try it yourself...
  • Keep pictures looking great: PhotoShow’s viewer delivers high-resolution photos. We’re not afraid to go full screen, because we don’t convert everything to lo-res internet video. (Try it in the sample show above!)
  • Set the mood: PhotoShow’s extensive library of licensed, legal music ensures users can find just the right song for their pictures (without putting you in the RIAA’s crosshairs).
  • Share beyond the web: PhotoShow lets your users broadcast their creations to cable TV or turn them into gift-worthy PhotoShow DVDs.

...Even Better for Your Site

You’ll appreciate what PhotoShow Developer Tools can do for your site. Increase customer satisfaction, stickiness, and your own competitive differentiation:

  • Promote yourself: PhotoShow incorporates your brand and logo.
  • Keep your traffic: Your users stay at your site to create and view PhotoShows, within your environment, under your brand.
  • Use your pictures: PhotoShow can import users’ photos from your site (integration’s easy) into their shows. Not storing pictures? There’s also an uploader so users can include photos from their computers.
  • Cater to your audience: You can customize PhotoShow creation to offer styles appropriate for your users. Maybe you’ve got the bling and BFF crowd; maybe elegant or formal is more your style. Babies, weddings, travel, pets… with 100+ One Click Styles (and more every month), PhotoShow’s got you covered. See what we mean in our One Click Style gallery.
  • Go viral: Your users can embed their PhotoShows into many popular sites and social networks – complete with your logo and backlinks to your site.
  • Let us do the work: PhotoShow’s hosted widgets integrate easily into your site, with no code to install on your servers. You automatically benefit from our ongoing product improvements, with no additional effort. And it’s our bandwidth delivering the shows, not yours.
  • Hold onto your cash: We make our money from premium service upgrades and selling PhotoShow DVDs. That means you can get PhotoShow on your site for free. It also means PhotoShow won’t require third-party ads on your site to annoy your users or conflict with your own revenue model.
