Congratulations!
You’re a new parent and you’ve brought your precious, beautiful
baby into the world. You want to shout from the rooftops that
you have this wonderful bundle of joy and you are so proud!
You have seen or heard about online birth announcements before,
and realize that they are a quick, easy, and no hassle way of
spreading the news of the birth of your precious baby. Below
we’ll outline ways you can share your baby photos online or
create your own online birth announcements.
The
easiest way to create an online birth announcement is to go
to a site that already has birth announcement templates for
you to choose from. There are free birth announcement websites
where all you do is upload a baby photo and some information
and you are set to go, and there are other birth announcement
websites that present you with the opportunity to create mini-journals
of your baby, usually for a fee. There are sites that specialize
in birth announcements that spotlight your religious preference
or even for your favorite sports teams. From traditional to
unique and even humorous, there is a birth announcement service
out there for everyone.
Sharing
Baby Photos Using a Free Online Photo Album Service
Another
method for creating your own birth announcement website is to
use one of the free photo album services offered online. For
instance, iPhoto for Apple users provides the ability to upload
pictures from a digital camera directly onto your own Apple
hosted website. Shutterfly.com provides similar capabilities.
If you have a digital camera, you can also upload your pictures
to Wal-Mart.com where you can view the pictures and even send
your baby photos to your local Wal-mart for photo processing
in an hour so you can get photo prints for your own offline
baby photo album.
Sharing
Baby Photos with Your Digital Camera Software
Most
of the digital camera manufacturers come with their own software
that allows you to share photos also. For instance, HP offers
a Share-to-Web software application allows you to upload your
photos from your digital camera to a unique website that you
can give out to your friends and family. HP’s software also
gives you the ability to email the photos without sending them
as attachments or sending them as thumbnails attached to the
email.
Sharing
Baby Photos Over Instant Messenger
If
you want instant gratification, the Yahoo! Messenger service
now offers the ability to send pictures over your instant messaging
program so you can just upload your baby photos and send them
instantly! Visit http://messenger.yahoo.com for further information.
