Expand the abilities of Apple's excellent photo library manager: share your iPhoto libraries over the World Wide Web!

Uses Your Existing Photo Library
iPhotoWebShare works with your current iPhoto library, so you don't need to transfer your pictures to a new location -- your pictures continue to be maintained by iPhoto. This means you don't have to learn how to use another photo application or have to periodically copy pictures to a different location. iPhotoWebShare works with iPhoto version 4 and version 5 libraries.
iPhotoWebShare does not modify any iPhoto database files or picture files, so your data is completely safe. It notices when iPhoto updates its library, and shows the changes the next time the web page is accessed.

Share With Everyone!
iPhotoWebShare allows you to share your iPhoto libraries with everyone. Although iPhoto allows you to share your library, it not only requires the server to be running iPhoto, but the client as well. Since iPhoto isn't thrifty in its memory usage, both systems tend to get bogged down. iPhotoWebShare runs as a small, background task, so you don't have to run iPhoto to share -- you don't even have to be logged in! With iPhotoWebShare, your photos are accessible through web browsers, so family and friends can view them using Safari, Mozilla, or Internet Explorer on Macs, PCs, or Unix boxes!

iPhotoWebShare uses Rendezvous to advertise its service, so local Mac users will automatically see your library being shared in Safari's Rendezvous menu (also works in Camino.)
If you have a static IP address or a dynamic domain, you can even share your photos across the Internet!

Requirements:
iPhoto 4 or later.
