How do you share a photo album?

OK I have a photo album in iPhoto.  How do you share that now that mobileMe is gone?  I want to be able to send a link to someone whether or not they have iCloud.
I tried making a shared photoStream album, and it sort of works.  I can't re-order the photos after they have gone up though.
What is worse is that when you go to the web site for the album, the photos are all automaticallyt cropped and laid-out into what is supposed to be an artful design, but which really just ruins any photos which are cropped to fit into squares.
Is there another way?  A way to at least disable that auto-layout?
Thanks
Bob

iCloud provides a simple gallery in the form of 'Photo Journal' - uploading of photos from iPhoto to web pages hosted on iCloud, but only from iOS devices; and the photos are compressed to a size adequate for online viewing but are not available in full resolution as with the old MobileMe Gallery. Apple have provided a sample album here.
This page examines some alternatives:

  • HT201317 I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    I have a MobileMe account and have shared many MobileMe Galleries.  MobileMe Galleries are going away in June.  How can I share a photo album with others using iCloud?

    The new ios version of iPhoto allows sharing.  Here's a blurb from Apple's web site:
    There’s the old way of creating photo galleries, then there’s the iPhoto way. Select a group of photos and iPhoto automatically flows them into a beautiful journal that’s fun to personalize and share online. Touch a photo to make it bigger or smaller. Or drag it to a different spot on the screen. iPhoto adjusts the page around whatever you’re doing, so your journal always looks great. You can even add captions, maps, dates, and weather — giving family and friends the big picture at a glance.
    More things you can do:
    With iPhoto, there’s more than one way to share a photo. Post pictures directly to Facebook, Flickr, or Twitter. Play an impromptu slideshow on your iPad or iPhone. Or stream photos to your HDTV to give your big moments room to shine.
    I have not used ios version of iPhoto to share "journals" and I'm not sure this is part of iCloud or not.  You'll have to do a google search on "ios iphoto" and read up of this journal thing.  As far as I know, this is the only way of sharing photos.  I'm not sure whether other friends use a browser to view these journals or whether they need something special.  Any way - search around to find answers.

    I have "Sync Photos from" clicked. But the "selected folders" remains greyed out. I have too many photo folders to combine into one folder, and this is just a glitch around the problem. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

  • How do i share a photo album with another computer

    I have edited a photo album that I wish to share with another computer in my network.  How do I import the album?

    If you want to share them as an album the only way to do this is to use  iPhoto Library Manager
    Using this will also preserve versions and all metadata
    Alternatively you can simply export to a folder (File -> Export) and then import to the other Library. If you drag the folder to the Album heading it will create an Album for you. You can get almost all metadata (but not Faces) this way if you export to jpeg, but you won't get versions.

  • HT4858 How do you remove downloaded photo albums (from my computer) from my iPhone?

    Same way you got the albums via computer, this time de-select before sync.

  • How do you make seperate photo albums/camera rolls for the ipad and iphone

    I am trying to make photo albums and different camera rolls for the ipad and iphone.  can anyone tell me how to do that?

    I don't think you can in the native iPad Photos app. It's just where all photos save in camera roll. If I sync folders with pic from my MacBook, it syncs as a separate album in Photos, but I can't move pics between them. I've actually just downloaded an app that allows for sorting photos by creating links to the photos to place them in the folders you create--it does not make duplicates of the photos to do this, so no worries of using up space.
    Anyway, the app is Best Album +transfer. Right now on sale for 99€ which was why I decided to get it.

  • HT4236 How can you create a photo Album on your iPhone and import that Album onto your computer (in my case a PC)?  It appears you can only sync from the computer to the iPhone, which is the opposite direction of what's desired in this case.

    It appears that sync'ingis pretty much one way, from the desktop to the device. If you create a folder on the desktop that is synced through iTunes with the iPhone, that folder appears as an Album in Pictures on the device.  But on the device you cannot add photos to that synced Album, so there is no way to use the desktop-based Album as an evolving target for new pictures on the phone, unless you do all the additions on the desktop software. 
    This really isn't "syncing".
    Further, if you create a new Album on the iPhone, it doesn't appear in the sync'ed folders on the desktop.
    The configuration for this discussion is iTunes 11 on Windows PC, iPhone 4S, and Windows Photo Gallery for picture editing on the PC.
    I'd like to have Albums and PC-based Picture Folders truly sync'ed.  Am I missing something or is this truly an iTunes Photo Sync'ing deficiency?

    The camera roll is not part of the sync process at all.
    You should be importing these photos to your computer regularly as you would with any digital camera.  Youc an organize them on your computer and sync the to the iphone if you wish.
    The photos sync from the computer to the iphone is one way.
    The iphone mirrors the selected content of the computer to which it is synced.

  • How do you delete a photo album off your phone that doesn't have the delete option available? and the photos section on iTunes has no photos synced?

    so I have an iPhone 4s and a while back I put a photo album on my phone, but now I cannot delete it!! The delete option isn't there to do it on my device and I have tried unchecking the synced photos button on iTunes and that doesn't work, I just want them off my phone.

    If unchecking and syncing in iTunes doesn’t work, you may have to use a third party tool like iPhone PC suite. With it, you can delete the photos and videos in Camera Roll, pictures in apps, pictures transferred from computer to iPhone and more. Use “Crtl + A” (for Windows) or “Command + A” (for Mac) to select all the pictures in an album and delete them, the album will disappear automatically.

  • How do you delete a photo album on new iPad?

    Need help to delete a photo album.   Also, is there a way to easily select more than one but less than all photos in an album?

    Why is a post pc device dependent on a pc to erase images?
    In the case of photos it is not a question of the type of device, but of the application you are using. Both iPhoto and Photos app are applications that allow albums to be uploaded and mirrored from your Mac. If you do not want the mirroring, don't use this feature - use the Photos Stream to upload. Then you can delete.

  • How do you share/backup photos with iPhoto 8?

    In order to be able to view photos on any of our home computers, as well as for backup purposes, I had a script which whenever activated updated the Picture folders on each computer from the one that imported the pictures.
    However, after having installed iLife 08 on two computers, that script is no longer effective. It seems that my entire photo library is now in one enormous file (I have 25k pictures). One would think I could replace that file on the secondary computers with the one from the primary, but that would involve a 50+GB replacement every time -- hours instead of minutes.
    Any sagely advise available??

    Select the photo(s) and click share and share to the face book album you want

  • How do you make another photo album?

    I tried to sync my pictures but it didn't work and i don't know what to do now to make one ???

    At the moment you need to do it on your computer prior to syncing, you can't do it directly on the iPad. If you sync multiple folders from your computer (which you need to do together in one go as only the most recent sycn remains on the iPad) then each folder will get it's own album on the iPad. With iOS 5 later in the year, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device

  • How do you share iCloud Photos with a group

    I have 8 people that I routinely share photos with in iCloud.  I have to manually add each person every time I create a new album.  Is there a way to create a group so I can simply add the group email and everyone will get notified?  I can create an email address on my server ([email protected]) and forward it to everyone's Apple ID, but that doesn't really work.  What if everyone added the address [email protected] as an alternate address in iCloud?  Would that work? 

    OS is Mavericks + server app

  • How can I upload my photo album to my gallery and share to friends from iPad?

    How can I upload my photo album to my gallery and share to friends from iPad?

    You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your album file into the folder. The file must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the files should appear & you can import.
