Webshots Being Replaced with SMILE
Webshots is going away as a free subscription to be replaced by SMILE. SMILE is going to be subscription service only. I don't mind paying but $30 a yr is twice what Webshots charged. If you have photos you wish to keep from free Webshots you need to move your photos.
There are a number of free picture hosting sites. You can request zip file(s) of all your precious memories.

Also webshots blog for the breaking news

Gotta run ... have to d/l my 17,000 photos and 500 videos. I know I have originals somewhere but this is just in case. What a BUMMER!!!!

Webshots Update
Webshots is back up for the 1000's of us who were locked out since January 31, 2008.
They didn't bother to answer any emails except for the auto reply thingie. I have their blog address now so will be leaving notes whenever necessary ... they probably don't read those either. Here's a some important information to keep handy for the next time 800-305-6766. If you want to email your suggestions (complaints): help@americangreetings.com and customersupport@webshots.com
Apparently webshots changed their IP address or something along those lines so many who were on AOL, COX, Suddenlink, PadotNet, Verizon DSL, Broadband (UK) and other ISP's around the World were locked out. It took their engineers awhile to figure out the problem. I knew I was in big trouble when I was unable to ping webshots IP address. They could have notified us of the update and problems. After all they love to send out ads which I don't want.

Webshots Problems
I have not been able to access any Webshot photos for over 5 days now. I've been asking others but it seems I was the only one .... not so. Finally a friend (thanks Carolyn) took pity on me and looked at the Webshots Blog and discovered:
Webshots blogs and discovered that many, many people are still not able to access Webshots. Lots and lots of complaints. So friend, it's not you or your computer but the area you are in. Here is an email address to get some help or answers. webshots@custhelp.com or customersupport@webshots.com
PLEASE take a moment and send webshots an email. I did and also told them I expect to see a credit on my account.
Thanks.
