Everywhere I look photobucket seems to be the choice amongst collectors for storing their trading card photos. However, I've considered building a an alternative that is tailored just for trading cards. It would have multiple options that could be selected, for each card uploaded, that would make organizing and browsing those buckets a lot simpler.

I've got some ideas that I think would work, but would you use it? I'd like to make sure there is some interest in it, and that it would be used, before spending hundreds of hours building it.

So, let's hear from other collectors.

I hate the new photobucket format, and I'll be forced to use it soon. It'd be a pain to transfer everything over, but I'd probably check it out.

I enjoyed the Gallery here, but I've ran out of allotted storage room.

So does that mean you'd use something new or not? unsure.gif confused.gif

I agree with Mark about being easy to use. User friendly. The new photobucket format is NOT user friendly. the last couple of times I've tried using my photobucket I had to go into "edit" my pics just to see what was in the sub-albums or to see all of the albums available.

I'm mostly about the Washington DC area Sports teams and Vintage.

A good means of sorting. Once I have uploaded pictures, I want to be able to sort by title, file name, date uploaded, etc. Need that for sure, primarily by title.

Thanks for the reply, Sam. That is definitely something that will be selectable in the member control panel.

By the way, everyone, it does look like this project is going to come to life. In the next few weeks I'll probably begin looking for beta testers to help test features as they're added. If you're interested in helping out, just drop me a PM.
