Webshots embodies innovation in photos.
With humble roots in Windows screensaver shareware, Webshots rocketed to popularity on the Web in the late 90’s allowing users to decorate their computer desktops with stunning imagery from around the world, hand-selected from professional photographers.
With the advent of digital cameras, Webshots became the first true public photo sharing website, enabling its members to upload photos to easily share with family, friends or the rest of the world.
Today, Webshots is a global distribution platform for image content. With an array of screen experiences, free and paid content channels, and publisher tools, Webshots disseminates images and news in real-time enabling viewers to enjoy, repurpose and republish media.
Webshots is committed to bringing joy to our audience and community. This includes designating a portion of revenue to organizations that preserve the wonder, drama, excitement, beauty, and awe of our planet.
