Possibility to share private images to a group of unregistered people through a URL
I'd like to see the possibility to share an album of private photos with a group of people who are not registered at expono through a simple URL. Presently I can only show this album to them by sending each and one of them an invitation to view the album per mail.
A solution to this would be to create an URL such as the one you get when you send an invitation to view an album to one person, except that it should not be tied to a specific mail-account, but an anonymous guest-account. This way, you could give out this URL as a "gateway" to your private pictures.
Or do you have any other plans for simplifying the sharing process?

I’m unsure

Inappropriate?You can "sort of" do this today :)
There are several ways to share photos and albums. You can do it via Facebook, Twitter, or via email to people you know (which are not on expono). You can send out share emails to a whole group of people all at once and they all receive the share email.
If you don't want to use this email feature, you can set a password on your album and send the URL and password to people.
You can only share Public and photos with Custom Privacy. Private photos are only accessible by you. To attach a password to your photos or album, use the same privacy dialog (there is a password tab to the right).
Yes, we are working on simplifying and improving the sharing process. In a day or two I'm going to post a topic about how we are going to change the sharing process, everyone is welcome with their ideas, thoughts and feedback :)
I hope this answer you question.
I’m happy

Inappropriate?Thanks, the password solution fits my needs nicely.
However, I'm not quite sure how I would find this out on my own. You should flesh out a bit the documentation/tutorials.
I’m thankful

Inappropriate?I didn't have problems finding the password feature. It isn't as elegant as Flickr's Guest Pass feature, though.
I’m confident
