The Blog

Today, Pixpa (www.pixpa.com) launched the ability for its portfolio website users to publish and share their portfolio galleries anywhere on the web. Pixpa users can now publish their photo galleries directly on their Facebook wall, any website or blog or a number of social networks as a beautiful, interactive slideshow with full navigation controls. Users can publish single or multiple galleries by simply selecting galleries in EasyStudio – the online control panel for managing Pixpa portfolio websites. Click here to see this in action.

The interactive slideshow is branded with the user’s identity and links to a full screen photo gallery slideshow on the user’s portfolio website. Pixpa users can also use this feature to share specific galleries as stand-alone slideshows with clients.

Gurpreet Singh, CEO, Pixpa says – “We feel that the ability to share and publish work across the web is a very important tool for any photographer, artist or designer to reach out to a distributed audience online. Creative professionals can now take their work to their audience, rather than wait for people to visit their website. The embeddable slideshows also are a great tool for driving traffic to one’s portfolio website by sharing selected works”.
