About Groopix

What's different?

• Remix!   First, someone in your Group creates a photobook. Then, you can preview that Photobook, buy it, or remix a copy of it for your own needs. It's easier to work with something that's 90% done than 0% done!
• Multiple uploaders.   Groopix lets multiple photo-takers upload to the same Group.
• Collections.   We let you further organize each Group into collections. These divide the total set of photos into more manageable sub-groupings.

Partner Focus

Even though Groopix is available to consumers directly, our sole focus is to work with online communities and provide them with a new source of revenue, branding and loyalty.

• Incremental revenue (beyond advertising).   Groopix acts as a wholesaler to its partners - who can mark up our low prices to their users as they deem appropriate. In most cases, there are no startup costs or special fees - just call us and we'll set it up! Groopix makes money when our partners' users buy Photobooks - that's all there is to it.
• Branding.   Groopix offers a powerful photobook theme editor that lets partners fully control the Photobooks they offer and content used in them. Groopix supports "autofill" capabilities, but also supports storyboard-style Photobooks as well. Partners can protect their own embedded photos and artwork, while users upload their own right alongside.
• Loyalty.   There is something especially rewarding about a photobook - it captures the emotional value of an experience, and presents it in a truly professional way. It is a memorable keepsake that creates a special bond between the individual and the provider of the experience.

Who's Behind It?

Groopix was created by former executives from MSN, Ofoto (now Kodak Picture Gallery®) and Netscape. The service was born out of frustration by the lack of collaborative features of the big photo sharing sites, and how poorly they address the special needs of groups.
