Fotki introduces its brand new Affiliate Program, where you earn money from every purchase your friend makes.

Here is how it works:

And here is a quick guide on how to join the affiliate program:

• Open your "My Account" page and click on "Activate" button in Affiliate Program section
• Read and accept our "Operating Agreement"
• Copy affiliation link and invite your friends to join Fotki site using this link
• As soon as invited person upgrades his/her Fotki account to Premium membership, you will see your up-to-date commission report by going to the Affiliate Program page.
• Check the earned balance and request a payment from Fotki.

Finally, here is what we will share with you - COMMISSIONS

What makes our commissions DIFFERENT? Well...

• The amount – no other photo site pays you as much. (Bring us a comparable ad from any competitor (temporary promotions excluded), and we will beat the price!)
• The scope – we are the largest of all independent photo sites, and the most international one too – Fotki is present in 215 countries, and we’ll pay you commissions on any worldwide subscribers, and using not only US payment methods.
• Sometimes people take time to make decisions – well, we have the longest "conversion period pledge" of all of our competitors: if a customer you brought converts within 90 days, we still owe you. (Again, bring us a comparable pledge from any competitor (temporary promotions excluded, and we will beat it.)

Don't you just love getting gifts! (And giving them too, we suppose?) :) > Well, now is your chance! - Surprise your Fotki friend with a virtual gift! Send a cute smiley to a buddy you miss or a lovely heart to a person you adore. It's a totally cool new way to say "Thank you!", "Hey dude, check my pictures!", "I love you!" and a lot more - your fantasy is the only limit... How do you send a gift? You are just a couple of clicks away! - Visit the Fotki account of a friend to whom you'd like to send a gift, click on "Send a virtual gift" link at the top of your friend's page, then pick a gift and write a message which will appear next to your gift. You may send a gift anonymously (risque and intriguing!) or sign it with your Fotki username, you can add your own text too. There is also an option to show your gift only to the recipient (by default all gifts are visible on person's About Me page). Enjoy your gifts, fellow Fotki members! :) Your Fotki team

Did you know that Fotki is celebrating its 11th anniversary? Yes, long before the whole "Web 2.0" fun started, Fotki.com was already up and running and serving thousands of users - and serving millions right now! We came with a big box of presents for this birthday - here are the cool new things that we would love to present to our dear users: Goodie #1: PIN CODE - you can protect your albums from accidental deletion (by yourself or your cat) by adding a Pin code to your Fotki account Goodie #2: SPONSOR ME - you can sponsor your friends (or wonderful strangers) ;) with a Premium account - just press the Sponsor Me button at the top of that user's Fotki page Goodie #3: FREE PREMIUM FOTKI MEMBERSHIP (hmm!) - yes, when updating your membership, you don't have to pay for it, you can just select the "TrialPay" option, and if you accept a sponsor's offer - you get a free 1 year Premium on Fotki (not bad?) Goodie #4: FOTKI WIDGETS - post beautiful Fotki album preview widgets on your Fotki pages or on other sites (MySpace, etc.) Goodie #5: "AddThis" BUTTON - scroll to the lower right corner of any of your photos in a photo view and post your photo onto any social networks or blogs like Twitter, digg, etc. Goodie #6: AFFILIATE PROGRAM - sign up, it's free and self-explanatory - and start benefiting from telling friends about Fotki :) http://affiliate.fotki.com/ Goodie #7: AUDIO COMMENTS - now, you can not only write comments under any photo, but - maybe - sing them? Goodie #8: "Featured" TAG - add a tag "Featured" to any of your photos (you know how to tag them, right?) - and see what will happen by going to your Profile page :) Goodie #9: PROTECTIVE PHOTO FRAMES (Style 27&28) - here is the way to protect your photos like never before - just apply photo frames style 27 or 28 and - bingo - your photos are even more safe! Goodie #10: UPLOAD PHOTOS BY EMAIL (as well as by iPhone, Android, Blackberry, or ANY other phone with emailing capability) - just go to "Photo Album Properties" and add a word (maybe some fun word, or an album name?) to "album email address" field, and you would be able to easily email photos right into your album! Goodie #11: VIRTUAL GIFTS - click on "Send a virtual gift" button and send a virtual present to your Fotki friend (or Fotki stranger!) Please contact our friendly and personable Customer Support, they will be happy to assist you with these and any other goodies! And - happy birthday to YOU and to us! Your (birthday-celebrating) Fotki Team

Hi Fotkins, Another day and more good news for you! : ) Did you know that Fotki is supported by Eye-Fi wireless storage memory cards for your digital camera? Now you can share your photos on Fotki easily and, yes, wirelessly with your Eye-Fi card. The Eye-Fi Card is the 1st wireless SD memory card for your digital camera. It stores photos like standard SD or SDHC memory card. But the Eye-Fi Card makes your camera wireless. Built-in Wi-Fi helps you organize and share your memories (yes, there is Wi-Fi in that tiny card). During a quick setup, you specify where you want your photos sent (where in your computer, where on the Internet - on Fotki.com, of course!) After that quick setup, turn on your camera within range of the configured network to effortlessly transfer photos. Press the button, and let Eye-Fi do the rest! How does that sounds? If good enough - then please click here to buy the card today (or tomorrow!) :) FEATURES 2GB memory capacity to store tons of photos. No need to buy a new camera - it stores media just like your existing SD or SDHC card. Wirelessly send JPEG photos to your computer and/or to your favorite sharing site. Works in over 1,000 cameras. Check here to see if your camera can be transformed into a powerful wireless uploading machine. Automatically sends your photos to any folder on your computer (or iPhoto for Mac users). Automatically sends your photos to Fotki or other popular sharing, printing, blogging or networking websites. Customize how you share. Set privacy (who can see your photos), choose which photos are uploaded, set albums, keywords, and automatic notifications in just minutes. Stay in the loop. Get notified when your photos are uploaded online by text message, email or Twitter. Get started in just minutes. Just set it up, pop it into your SD or SDHC compatible camera, and watch your photos fly into your computer. No time to share photos? Use the 2GB Eye-Fi Share card to automatically upload photos to your computer and to Fotki. No cables. No hassles. No kidding. Best, Your Fotki Team.

Fotki introduces new protection feature - PIN code.

PIN code prevents unauthorized deletion of your photos, albums and folders. We suggest to set PIN code in case you share your login information (Fotki username and password) with someone else or suspect that somebody has stolen your Fotki password.

To set your PIN, please proceed to My Account page and click on "Set PIN" link in the Account Information section. You will be asked for your Fotki password to complete the setup. In case you decide to change or remove PIN, we will ask you for both the old PIN and your Fotki password.

Dear Fotki user, We are all getting ready for the fun and festivities of Labor Day - most of us will take fun, silly, great, not so great, goofy and maybe even embarrassing photos that weekend. So, how about turning these photos into fun products after the Labor Day weekend is over? :) Starting on Labor Day and for a whole week after (until September 15), we are offering automatic a $3 discounts on all Fotki photo products (except frames) - look how cool your Labor Day photos would look on them :) Click here to order these almost-free products :) whenever you are ready with your cool photos!

Cheers and Happy Labor Day, Your Fotki Team
