Change is Coming... But That's OK!

Please find below some directions for switching over Photoworks Accounts to ShutterFly Accounts that was originally published by Shea Ann DeJarnette, the wonderful 4-H Agent from Robeson County.  She gave me permission to copy this to our Blog.  THANKS SHEA ANN!!!

Well we have a little announcement to make for all of you who follow the Robeson County 4-H blog. As you know when you click on the links to our photos you find them at photoworks.com. Our organization has had a decade long partnership with this company even before it was photoworks and was known as Seattle Film Works. In the last day or so photoworks has announced it will be closing as of April 4, 2011. They are transferring our photos to a similar service at shutterfly.com.

This will effect you in two ways. For those of you who look at photos or download photos for project records etc., you will now be taken to our Shutterfly account where you will have to create your own free account as you did on photoworks. You will be able to save entire albums to your account or specific photos. You can download them to your computer and print or order prints from shutterfly just as your did photoworks. If you have photos stored at photoworks you can log into your account (up until April 4) and ask them to transfer your photos to your shutterfly account which you can do for free.

The second way this will effect you is through the blog. All posts prior to this one are linked to photoworks. After April 4, we will replace the links in reverse chronological order so the photo links will be through shutterfly. This is not an overnight task, and may take some time but we will work diligently to update all of our posts with new links to the new photo sight.

If you would like to order any of the photo books we have made in the past now is the time. The last post of each year has a link to the books that were made. After April 4, these books will no longer be available. We are working with Shutterfly to build our own share page that you will be able to access all our photos separately without a specific link from the blog and will keep you updated on that process as it happens.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we go through this process. If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me at michelle_stumbo@ncsu.edu.
