PhotoUpLink: iPhoto FTP Plugin

PhotoUpLink is an iPhoto plugin that allows easy uploading of your high resolutions images to a (S)FTP server. As you can see above, it adds an extra tab to iPhoto's Export Photo pane with a number of options. According to the developer, one cool feature is that after uploading an image or album to your FTP server you can create an email with "an AppleScript attached that allows the recipient to import directly into a new iPhoto album." The idea is that this makes it easier to share high-resolution photos that can't easily be attached to emails. In addition, PhotoUpLink can "export video and images into any ODBC datasource such as MySQL server," export images directed into "Word documents, Zip archives or PowerPoint presentations" and even join multiple photos into a panorama.
PhotoUpLink is $24.99 and a demo is available. Although it is not available yet, the developer appears to be working on a similar plugin for Aperture.

PhotoUpLink 0.3.4 for Aperture is now available as a test download. ODBC, FTP, and SFTP features are largely working. PhotoUpLink for Aperture database connectivity lets you export all the binary data and metadata from your library into a searchable SQL database. PHP and other languages can then be used for web applications with the photo library. It can be downloaded from http://www.photouplink.com
April 21 2007 at 1:35 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyHas Apple managed to get iphoto to run fast enough to be usable yet? I had to ditch it over a year ago because the 5 minute start up and 8 minute shut downs made me insane. And that doesn't even take into account the sever pain associated with actually browsing photos in it. SOOOO SLOW.
Oh and this is on a 17 inch Imac, the last one before the Intel processors were intro'd, 1 gig of ram.
Bout. Time. I've been waiting for a simple upload tool that supports SFTP straight out of iPhoto - this means I can do some simple iPhoto exports to a customized folder for clients... the CMS can just scan the folder as needed, and build accordingly with a GD library out of PHP or something similar. I love it. http://slideshowpro.net/ has something similar as well for their flash app.
