Online Photo Album/Gallery - PhotoOnWeb

PhotoOnWeb is a new internet site for your online photo albums. It is a product of VSO Software publisher of VSO PhotoDVD - Photos DVD Slide show software.

It works a little differently than other album sites I've used but I love the results. You download a small program (about 6Mb) and install it. When you run the program you can select to create a new album or open an existing album.
Now select your photos. You can browse your hard drive to find them or you can drag and drop from an open window. Each photo can have its own comments.
Select an album name (which will define the web page name), a description (which will appear on the page) and a template. There are more than 20 templates to choose from: photographic, wedding, model book, holiday, real estate, birthdays, etc. All done? Then Publish your album. Publish connects with the web site. If you are not logged in, you must do so and then the pages are created and uploaded with reasonable speed.

I haven't yet tried hosting the pages on my own ISP web space but they say you can.

It's brand new - I even got to use my name as the login. It's free! There's a 100Mb of storage. And the current version has no ads inserted.
Overall, PhotoOnWeb is very hard to fault!
Take a look at an example I put together of derivations.
