How it works

Add your photos. Send one link for the rest.

  1. 1

    Send one link.

    Family and friends open it on their phones and add what they have. It goes straight into your slideshow, and you get an email when it does. No app for them, no account.

    Put them in order with one tap.

    Sort by age lines them up, youngest to oldest. Look it over, keep it, or drag any photo somewhere else.

    Watch the whole thing first.

    It plays in your browser as you add photos, with music. If a photo has to be cropped to fit, the people stay in the frame, and you can check every one. Pay only when you want the file.

Start with the photos you have, add the rest by link

Themes

Choose the feel.

A theme is the backdrop, the motion and the music behind your photos. Try a few. It is the same slideshow each time.

Frequently asked questions

How do I get photos from their coworkers without them finding out?

One link does it. Send it to the department, the old colleagues who moved on, and the family. Each person opens it on their phone, picks their photos, and they land straight in your slideshow. No app and no account for them, and only the people with the link can see it, so it stays a surprise.

The party is next week. Is that enough time?

Yes. One evening is enough. The slideshow plays as soon as it has photos in it, so add what you have tonight, send the link, and it fills in as photos arrive. Most people send theirs within a day or two of getting the link.

What should go in a retirement slideshow?

The first day and the last, and the years between: the first ID badge, the team photos, the retirements they went to, the awards, the crew at the holiday party. Then the life around the work, because the room is family as well as colleagues: the wedding, the kids, the boat. Two or three photos from each stage is plenty.

Can coworkers add a short video message?

Yes. The same link takes short video clips as well as photos, and up to five of them play in the slideshow with their own sound. A ten second message from the person who trained them, or from the crew that cannot make the party, lands harder than any photo.

Will it play at the office or the restaurant?

Yes. You get a standard MP4 that plays on a TV, a projector, a conference room screen, a laptop or a phone. You also get a page that plays it, so a venue with a screen and Wi-Fi can open the link and press play.

Can the opening card show their name and years of service?

Yes. The opening slide has a name line and a line under it, so it can read their name, then the years and the place, like 1988 to 2026, Mercy General.

How long should it be?

Four to six minutes, which is 50 to 100 photos at a few seconds each, plays well while people are seated and watching. It holds up to 300 photos and 5 short video clips if the whole department sends theirs, and a longer one is fine running in the background of the party.

Can you make it for me?

Yes, for $349. We build the whole slideshow, frame every photo by hand, and work with you on changes until it feels right. You send the photos through the same link and we do the rest, ready before the party. Ask on the done-for-you page.

The early photos are prints from the eighties. What then?

Photograph them with a phone, straight from the album or the frame. Phone photos of prints work well, and if a photo has to be cropped to fill the screen, the people stay in the frame, and you check every crop before you buy.

Start with the photos you have.

Watch the whole slideshow come together before you decide. Free to preview, and the family and their coworkers can add theirs at any point.
