Sharing photos with a ReadyNAS Duo

Hi all,

since Netgear has anounced to effectively terminate the ReadyNAS Photo service, I wonder if there is an alternative way to host and share photo albums with a ReadyNAS Duo. As much as I like it, I cannot afford to buy a x86 NAS, so ReadyNAS Photo II is not really an option for me.

Cheers,
Daniel

We are also working with ReadyNAS community developers to come up with an alternative photo sharing solution.
We apologize for any inconvenience to you.


Stay tuned.

Re: Sharing photos with a ReadyNAS Duo

Having used ReadyNas Photos on my ReadyNAS Duo for the past several years I am greatly disappointed it is being discontinued. I have no plans to upgrade to a newer ReadyNAS since mine works fine and was purchased with the understanding that it was a long term purchase.

I'm hoping those of us owning a ReadyNAS Duo will not be forgotten about.

Regards,
Tom

I too am disappointed about the loss of this great add on so hopefully they will come up with something very soon

I thought being the version 2.2 that it was Photos II . I guess not.

It's Photos I version 2.2. Photos II is quite different and much improved. Photos II is completely managed via web-interface. Take a look at http://www.readynas.com/photos2

following your helpful Netgear-style reply to my post in the end-of-life announcement thread, why don't you inform NV+ users of the add-on when it's officially ready ? thanks

I don't work for NetGear but I am a ReadyNAS fan. I presume yoh-dah or the community developer will post about the add-on when it's ready.

Re: Sharing photos with a ReadyNAS Duo

If you do not need all the puuhaa with managing your albums through a webinterface, but prefer a static website which you generate from time to time, you could consider
running JALBUM and generate your album directly on your 'www' share on the nas....

http://jalbum.net/

(forget their hosting offer, you can just generate the album locally and host directly from you nas).

Re: Sharing photos with a ReadyNAS Duo

So did anyone come up with a photo sharing solution for the ReadyNAS Duo?
