Like it, photography is an area underserved with new interesting ideas. There's a world of people who take more than Instagram pics, and this seems aimed at that demographic.

One problem though: since you're aiming at photography enthusiasts, you'll want a proper integration with Aperture by a plugin or something. The way it works using the uploader (taking the cached previews) is clunky and not granular enough.

This is brilliant. iTunes killed hierarchical organization for music, but we've still been stuck with it for photos (albums = folders). This could get rid of "albums" as we know them.

As a very longtime Flickr user, I much welcome a quality Flickr replacement for those of us that want off site storage coupled with the ability to share with specific others in an easy manner.

My first thought was Apple or Google is going to buy this. Love the UI, but nobody is going to pay a subscription fee for it (and I doubt that is the business plan anyway).

This is an amazingly beautiful site and a great example of responsive design.

I like the landing page. As I was reading through, I found something you may want to correct:

"Take more photos anyway! ... so you can _you_ enjoy all ..."

There is an additional "you" in this sentence. Just to clarify, I am not trying to offend anyone here, just trying to help. I think landing pages are important.

Good luck!

I think the price is fair, especially as a dedicated backup service (i.e. a third backup dest.). If their terms & features are strong enough they'll likely pick up a following from enthusiast photographers who are tired of Flickr/500px and want somewhere where private is the default.
