Mpix 2.0 Preview 3: New Sharing Capabilities

We are getting closer to the launch of our newly designed Mpix site.  If you have missed our previous posts on the upcoming launch, then feel free to read our introduction to Mpix 2.0, our preview of the new print ordering process, or our sneak peek of the new frame options that will be available.

In this post we will be showing you some of the new features available for sharing on the site.  Our goal is to make it as simple as possible for you to let your friends, family, and contacts view and buy photos that you have uploaded to Mpix.  We hope you enjoy what we have in store!

Sharing in the new navigation
In the previous post, we highlighted the “Buy Prints” tab in the new main navigation.  We are excited to announce that “Sharing” too has landed a prominent place in this navigation bar.  We think that the new Sharing features will be a great addition to Mpix and we look forward to enhancing it even more in the future.


Sharing an Album
Sharing an album is now only a couple of clicks away.  Once you go to the new community section of Mpix, you will be able to select from all of your albums to easily share one or more albums at a time:


 
Once you have selected your albums, you can then send an e-mail invitation to people with whom you want to share them.  It’s as easy as entering an e-mail address or selecting from contacts that you already have shared with in the past.  Adding a list of manageable contacts is just one way we are working to make sharing easier and more fun.

 

 

 

View albums shared with you
In addition to sharing albums, you can also access albums that have been shared with you by others.  This means no more going through old e-mails to find the link to the album that was shared with you.  If the person you shared with already has an Mpix account, then the albums are automatically available the next time they log in!

 

 

Everything you need to order photos from albums that have been shared with you is now in one place.  Or if you are looking for a fun way to browse the photos in each gallery, then you’ll like our new slideshow feature too:

 

Questions or Comments?
We are excited about this new addition to the Mpix Community and we hope you like it too!  We hope that you will let us know what you think about the new sharing options that will be available in Mpix.  Please feel free to leave a comment below!

Have you thought about providing a full commerce site?  Or are you thinking of leaving that to Zenfolio?

I'm considering Zenfolio now, mostly because of their relationship with Mpix.

I just read the email....will the drop shipping option be available through zenfolio too? Just renewed another year with them.

Regardless...I am SO excited!

For now, fulfillment will be through Zenfolio. Yes, we hope to offer the drop shipping option in Zenfolio as well.
