I love this! Bit of feedback: if I were to use this to share photos taken for a client, I would love a way for my clients to be able to download all the photos in one go.
Yes, that is the biggest feature people have asked for. I'm trying to figure out the best way to do it. Quick question. Would it be ok if you clicked a link and then it emailed you a bit later when the download was ready?

Yes, right now the "view-only" link becomes a collaborative album through a boolean set in the database. I'd be happy to create a separate url if you think that would make it more obvious.
Just thinking out loud but if I went on a hiking trip with a couple of friends and we all wanted to show off an album of pictures to other, it makes sense I would give a view-only link to people who wanted to view the album and an edit link to those who came on the trip to contribute photos. It could be something as simple as selecting "Yes" generates an edit var with the associated link. If someone pastes the edit U…
I'd certainly consider tweaking it, though, to make it possible to share a view-only and collaborative album simultaneously.
Looks great. I'd love a way to view full resolution images without having to download it.
Good to know. That wouldn't be too hard to add. Out of curiosity why do you want to view the full-resolution photos vs. the ones that are scaled to fit your screen?
This looks great! I love that there is no account required. However, since I can use it without an account, why would I register? You may want to add some motivational copy to the registration page to tell me. Also, these two statements from the "Free" section don't seem to match: * Original, full-size photos are stored for one month. * Full-sized photos can be downloaded for $0.99/album after one month. Maybe the se…
The second line is meant to explain that after one month you can pay $0.99 and download all the full-size photos (before one month you can do that for free). Is that how you understood it?
The interface is better - but otherwise, how is this superior to imgur ( http://www.imgur.com )? Imgur has obviously already scaled.
imgur is more about sharing a single photo or creating a meme. This is more about creating and sharing an album of photos. The features of SimpleNeat include things like reordering photos, custom urls for albums, easy downloading, and, eventually, easy printing or creating mugs or t-shirts.

How about bittorrent sync for that purpose?

I'm not entirely sure that I care if you register. It might be beneficial, but I'm more concerned about you finding it useful and using it / sharing it with other people. If a lot of people use it anonymously I think it would be fine, although maybe that's naive...

What happens with the photos if you cannot afford to run the service?

As a user who would also want this feature, I would say it is because you sometimes want to see full detail. If, for example, someone sends you a link to a painting or some old coins you might be buying or whatever.
There's now a link next to the "Download Photo" button called "View Original" when you click to view the larger photos.
Update
Unfortunately on Chrome this link doesn't work because the photo is stored in a way that tells Chrome to automatically download the photo. I'll have to dig in to figure out if there is a way to force the photo to be displayed instead of automatically downloaded.

If a lot of people are using it for free how do you pay for bandwidth? What happens with the photos if you cannot afford to run the service?
You say no registration required but next the create album button are sign in and register buttons. I'm sure there would be some users who think they need to register/sign in before clicking the create album button.
I also don't see on the home page what I would get if I did register (even though it's not required).
