#2EDIT: Turns out it's one invite. See reply.
If you haven't seen iminlikewithyou.com, you're missing out. Their AJAX-rich interface is definitely slick. Lucky for you kind souls post here offering invites for nothing. Unlucky for you I'm not one of them. This time you have to work for it.
I want you to go through the demo on ourdoings.com and give useful feedback. If more than five people give feedback I'll pick the five most useful. "Useful" is defined as matching the feedback I'm getting from my actively-posting users, or that I imagine would help them.
The target market for ourdoings.com is people who have a lot of photos but little time to share/organize. Parents with lots of kid photos is one example. Travlers are another. This isn't a social networking site for photography enthusiasts; it's designed for speed and simplicity.
I know there are people who frequent news.yc and are in the child-rearing phase of life. You know exactly what this is about, and I really hope that both of you give feedback. For the rest of you who see this as a boring site for old people, just think of all the fun you'll have with your iminlikewithyou invite.

I think a vertical for child-rearing parents is a great idea. These days verticals rule. There is alot of reading to do on your site. This might be good for people that are not used to technology, but I still believe that your site should be intuitive, so that you don't need lots of text to explain things to people. I mean even my grandma knows what publishing is...

If you give brlewis site feedback as well, then I'll even throw in an upvote :)

#5I just opened up my first photo account with flickr and it was amazingly easy to upload several hundred photos from a trip to the botanical gardens and then email the series to friends. It's so simple even my grandmother can use it.
I'd advise you to work on your copywriting. With all the free photo hosting sites out there already I don't think people care about average number of photos times x number of cents to host per year. They just want to know how easy it is and that it's free or that they are getting an incredible deal by paying a subscription fee.
If you're targeting people who are new to the web, talking about zip archives will likely scare them away. Keep it simple.

I'm pretty curious about what the rest of iminlikewithyou.com looks like. So, hopefully my contribution is useful:
I think I got all the way through the demo, in any case it is very frustrating. I think that the whole interface is insufficiently intuitive. Considering the fact that your target demographic is (often) non-technical families, I would reorganize the methods of interaction.
There should be a simple pathway for every task that hides irrelevant actions on each step. For instance, once someone uploads a set of photos the option to upload more should be hidden until the user complete modifying the photos or returns to a 'home' page.
You are facing some very serious competition. There is a lot of work to be done before you launch.
Frankly, if you need a tutorial for an application like this, your interface isn't good enough.

I'd give away more invites here as well, but the last time I did, two people I invited didn't even bother to sign up. You guys suck.
