How'd the holidays treat you this year?

Did you make any special new memories? Capture them with photos? Share them... on Multiply? :-)

You already know that Multiply is the best way to share photos with more of the people you know. We just thought we'd remind you that Multiply's official photo print partner, QOOP, is a pretty good way to do even more with your photos.

Whether we're talking about simple prints or something more elaborate, like posters, stickers, mugs — or hey, 2008 calendars! — QOOP makes it easy to get your photos onto great products, which make thoughtful gifts anytime throughout the year!

To get your (or a friend's) photos onto customizable products, just click the prints & gifts link that you'll find under most photo albums.

Although you're always free to manually download the photos you've already shared on Multiply, there's a much easier way to get a copy of the lot of them, whether for yourself... or someone else.

A few months ago, we announced that Multiply had partnered with QOOP for our brand-new photo printing services. In addition to the custom postcards, calendars, mugs and more that they create, which you may already know about, did you know that QOOP also makes it easy to order a backup copy of your photo albums?

To get started, simply start with one of your photo albums – any one will do. Click the prints & gifts link you'll find below the album. You'll then be taken to QOOP's site; once there, you'll find Photo Disks among the list of items. Select this and the rest is simple -- you'll be able to choose to add all of your photos to the disk, choose certain albums, or even pick photos shared between certain dates!

This sort of thing is great if you ever need an easy copy of all the photos you've posted to Multiply. And let's not forget that these make great gifts for those less Internet savvy... but still near and dear to your heart!

Today, we're proud to announce that we've updated our photo-print offerings... complete with a brand-new print partner!

We took our time with this decision, searched high, low, far and wide, and finally selected QOOP to handle our users' photo-printing needs. We've had a chance to sample their products and are quite impressed with the quality they're able to deliver.

While QOOP allows us to offer you full the range of printing options we did before, it doesn't stop there.


With QOOP, you can now show off the photos you've posted to Multiply on a wide variety of products! Who wouldn't want to see their memories every month on a calendar, or every morning on a coffee mug? And naturally, these sorts of things make great gifts -- think of it as a whole new way to share your photos with the people who matter!

Here are just a few things you can customize using photos from Multiply:
(see QOOP for a complete list)

• posters
• calendars
• stickers
• mugs
• magnets
• greeting cards
• mousepads
• ...and much more!
  

To order these fine products, or to just have a look at what's available, simply click the prints & gifts link you'll find below the thumbnails on almost any Multiply photo album.

Additionally, after uploading a new photo album of your own, you'll be given the option of immediately using your brand-new photos on an item. Check it out and see what looks good!

International shipping is, of course, available. And once you do receive your order, why not post a photo of yourself holding it, for that meta-photo goodness! :)



If you'd like to prevent others from ordering prints of your photos, enable Advanced Posting and you'll find an option for doing so when adding a new album, or editing an existing one. Of course, disallowing others to order prints doesn't mean you can't still order prints from your own photos!

If digital photos are a good thing (and they are!), effortlessly getting prints of your digital photos is a great thing.

Being the insatiable crew that we are, we decided to throw caution to the wind and take it to the next level. We're pleased to announce that prints of your photos on Multiply are available from the very new, very low price of $.16 each. We've gone ahead and lowered prices for the entire range of print sizes; here's the full list:

(all prices in U.S. Dollars)

• 3x5" - $0.16
  
• 4x6" - $0.16
  
• 5x7" - $0.79
  
• 8x10" - $2.99
  
• wallet prints (4) - $1.49

Think about it: that's up to six prints for under a dollar; why wouldn't you want to share your fondest memories with those you're most fond of? And while you're at it, if they're not already members, why not invite them to Multiply so they can join your network and take advantage of photo printing... and everything else membership has to offer!
