A beautiful site solely dedicated to photography. You get a lot of feedback to your work if you are connecting with the some other photographer. No video, reel, story useless stuff. Just photography.... See more

my opinion: half a rip-off. They encourage you to post highly appreciated photos, you get 700,000 views, then if you don't subscribe they close your channel without warning. Wasted time, forget it. Yo... See more

Female nudes galore, but the hypocrisy is unbelievable. I'm a guy, so can barely post anything before they remove it. I'm a pilot so I was trying to post aerial photography, and they even removed pict... See more

Photo scam

I have been promised twice that after paying a discounted 70% of the PRO membership, my images would be published in a dedicated book. This never happened and when I asked more details, they said the images had been included. However, I was never asked to provide hi res images nor a release to publish my copyrighted work. Recently a fellow photographer was notified that one of his images was to be published; however, when he requested information on the book, he was told that the book was to be ordered and that he would have to pay 680 US$ to see his work.

Best customer service anywhere.

I was having a technical issue and it was resolved very quickly. Somehow I ended up speaking directly with the CEO and he was extremely helpful. It says a lot when the CEO of a company of this size will communicate directly with a new customer.

I signed up for the pro membership and I am not regretting it.

ART AND PHOTOGRAPHY

There’s one image sharing group that differs from others . I have the Swedish YouPic in mind that really shines. Competings companies like Flickr, 500pix or Google can´t actually reach up to YouPic when comes to the photo enthusiasm among the members at Youpic. The enthusiasm is shared through constructive comments on pictures from YouPic members . Personally I have never met online trolls on YouPic .
Once you visit YouPic.you will instantly notice the enthusiasm on the site with a community that currently consists of millions users from all over the world. It is the perfect tool for professionals as well as beginners as it offers the possibility to get international exposure for your work, grow your brand, find clients, learn key skills, meet new people, be inspired, and evolve as a photographer, both professionally and artistically.

YouPic offers the ultimate platform for those who want to fully embrace the art of photography without being interrupted by advertisements or worry about your personal data being sold. It seems like there's intentionality behind each picture that's shared rather than mass postings that are common on other photo-based social media platforms. It seems like YouPic takes its users seriously as well,more down to the individual based .

There is a free membership at YouPic , but also YouPic premium and PRO YouPic . With YouPic Premium, you’ll get access to more advanced search options. For example, you can look for pictures based on camera type and ISO—plus other filters.

You can also gain higher visibility in YouPic’s directory with Premium, making you more visible to potential clients. With YouPic Pro, you get all of the above features and more. For pictures, you can set your pricing and keep all of the markup. Moreover, YouPic will allow you to create your own photography site,

There is YouPic apps for Android and IOS.

Wasted time

my opinion: half a rip-off. They encourage you to post highly appreciated photos, you get 700,000 views, then if you don't subscribe they close your channel without warning. Wasted time, forget it. Youpic is not your home, if you want a forum choose Juzaphoto, if you want maximum sharing and advertising choose Instagram.

Breath of fresh air

Pros:
The biggest pro will be the platform's commitment to photography. Unlike other popular social media platforms, users get to share their work with the entire world. The community is knowledgeable, encouraging, and supportive. The platform truly inspires you to dedicate more time to your art.
Cons:
I believe the yearly subscription fee is a bit overpriced, however, sometimes the promotional vouchers reduce the price quite a bit.
