"Lightbox has played
a key role in making our collection
accessible to a worldwide audience.
We've had great support from Lightbox
when we've needed to upgrade or add
our own customization to the standard
interface."

"Lightbox Photo has
proven to be a great tool enabling me
to provide an independent, reliable
and professional solution to market
& sell my photographic work. What has
further enhanced my experience with
Lightbox Photo is the flexible, skilled
and courteous staff behind the product.
As great as the product is the customer
service has been even better, exceeding
my expectations from implementation
of custom design to basic support.
All around my Lightbox Photo experience
has been exceptional."

"I am a web
designer and found Lightbox Photo as
a solution for an artist client who
wanted to be able to manage their
photo archives on their own. I was
truly impressed by the level of
service we received from the sales
and support department in setting up
the site, not to mention the
incredible built-in features
Lightbox Photo offers. My client can
add photos, change prices,
descriptions, etc, all without my
help! I highly recommend this
software."

"In three years it
has completely turned my business around
so that 90% of my sales are now online.
It also helps that the site appeals
to my target audience of late teens
- it has media previews, they can email
their photos to every friend they can
think of, it is easy to order using
credit cards; they love it and so do
I. I even have people choosing me as
a photographer because of the way the
photographs are displayed and sold.
For my corporate clients and big theatre
clients and families I use the Private
Galleries feature to display proofs
– they appreciate the discretion this
offers. Lightbox was the best investment
I ever made (and it is remarkable value
for the amount it costs); without it
I doubt if I would still be in business
as a photographer, as it is, despite
the recession, I am having my best year
ever."

"I wanted to thank
you and Hien for the outstanding support
you've provided over the last couple
of months. I have no prior experience
of server side & web programming so
I know that some of my questions / understanding
have been perhaps a little odd at times.
I've been really impressed by the speed
with which you have resolved my issues,
usually within a few hours of being
raised, sometimes even over weekends.
I can't remember the last time I received
support like that in any industry sector,
let alone IT. I'd also like to let you
know how highly I rate Lightbox. I did
a lot of research before committing
to Lightbox, and trialled a couple of
alternative service providers as well.
Apart from Lightbox none that I trialled
or considered offered anywhere near
the flexibility and functionality that
your product provides. Lightbox has
provided me with a very simple and user-friendly
web-site that offers very powerful functionality."

“Lightboxphoto has
been for me the light at the end of
a very long tunnel. I had tried unsuccessfully
over a long period of time to have a
professional e-commerce website designed
and built, but it became a minefield
of unresolved problems with a very fragile
operating system. Lightboxphoto’s top
of the range Enterprise system was the
exact opposite. Sturdy, confidence boosting,
with a help manual to cover almost every
eventuality, backed up by the Lightboxphoto
team’s quick and efficient responses.
I could not have hoped for a better
system to tailor to our own design.
I realised recently that if I had continued
as I was, before I was referred to Lightboxphoto,
that my life could have been blighted
by technical problems, whereas now I
feel I have been given an open door
on the world and all the freedoms that
go with it. The compliments keep flowing
in, thank you guys!"

"Lightbox Photo is
the most effective tool to present and
sell photographs and images online that
I have come across. The developers have
thought of every detail to ensure their
product assists not only the photographer
in helping to present their images well,
but also the audience that experiences
an intuitive and well designed image
browsing and selection process. The
detailed guidance provided in the help
documentation for Lightbox Photo is
very welcome, however the most impressive
feature of my experience with Lightbox
Photo is the excellent support provided
every step of the way. From the moment
I purchased the Enterprise edition I
felt confident that I had made the right
choice. The developers assisted me whenever
I ran into difficulty, and provided
advice and practical help that ensured
the end result achieved my goal. Thanks
again for a great product equaled only
by superb support!"

"In the first version
of my website, it featured an integrated
search engine that was slow, cumbersome
on the back-end, and lacked a lot of
functionality. When I discovered
Lightbox Photo software it was like
a dream come true. I can go on
a shoot, keyword, and upload images
in just a few minutes with ease and
without any technical knowledge
of database operations. In fact,
just recently, a client found an image
that I had just shot an hour earlier
on the search engine and I made the
sale literally minutes after uploading
it to the database. With the old
system, it would have taken me hours
to upload images that are ready for
licensing."

"I found Lightbox
Photo quite by accident, but I’ve thanked
my lucky stars every day since.
During an initial discussion with a
website developer to explore feasibility
of developing an e-commerce site to
showcase my photographs, I pointed the
developer to a site that I greatly admired
and told him “I want to develop a site
that works something like THIS”
– and it turned out the site I had pointed
out was one built around the Lightbox
Photo gallery software. I contacted
the friendly folks at Lightbox Photo,
and after reviewing their demos, exploring
the features of their Control Panel,
and studying their awesome System Configuration
& Help Menu, I chose not only to buy
the Lightbox Photo software, but I contracted
with Lightbox Photo to customize my
site as well – all at a fraction of
the price I would have paid elsewhere.
As a newcomer to website development,
I really appreciated the outstanding
technical support, quick response, and
exceptional customer service provided
by the team at Lightbox Photo.
I could not have found a better team
to have in our corner as we launch our
new business. Whether you are
just starting out or a seasoned web
veteran, you can trust these folks to
deliver a great product and stand behind
it every step of the way. Thank
you Lightbox! It’s a privilege
having your name associated with my
website."

"Being a photographer
nowadays, you spend more and more time
with your computer and unfortunately
even more time than with your camera.
With lightboxphoto and their support,
I have finally found a tool which optimizes
my digital workflow and client communication,
both in the assignment and the stock-image
sections. It is the first time ever
that I have a tool which does exactly
what I need - a software application
tailored with the thinking of a photographer.
Lightboxphoto will add to my creativity,
as I now will have a lot more time for
my real profession and passion again
– photography itself. Thank you!"

"As a professional
aerial, landscape and commercial photographer,
I demand the best from my photography
gear and everything else I use for my
business. For the longest time I have
been searching for the perfect solution
to get my photography business website
re-energized with fully customizable
marketing and usability features. Having
already tried a home-made e-commerce
cart system, I found myself limited
and frustrated all the time. Since purchasing
LightboxPhoto's Enterprise edition,
I have to say that it is exactly what
I have been needing for a long time.
The quality just doesn't stop with the
software, the excellent support and
very quick response times have gone
above and beyond what I expected for
support and help. For any aspiring artist
seeking to make his/her dreams of doing
what you love for a living come true,
you really cannot go wrong with LightboxPhoto.com's
software solution...Cheers!"

"When I looked into
Lightbox Photo, I was impressed by what
the software offered, which seemed ideal
for my picture library. When setting
up Springboard Images, Adrian and the
Lightbox team helped me achieve the
look and feel that I was after. With
Springboard Images now up-and-running,
the feedback I'm getting from my clients
is that this a very easy to use, accessible
system"

"Lightbox were extremely
reassuring, patient and helpful as we
made the transition from our old html-based
site to a new PHP driven one. Their
software already came with excellent
features, but they worked with us to
customize it even further to our needs.
Quick response, thoughtful service,
and a great product, they offer it all!"

"I looked at several
alternatives when I decided to put up
my own stock photo website. I kept coming
back to Lightbox Photo and made a mental
note when others recommended it on various
lists. I haven't regretted purchasing
a licence. When someone is looking for
a recommendation, I now put it at the
top of my list. The support is fast,
friendly and excellent when needed."

"I’ve been searching
for a platform to show my photos to
clients and found the perfect fit with
the Lightbox Photo program. I was able
to customize the look and feel exactly
how I wanted and am extremely pleased
with the final outcome. The feature
to add keywords to photos so clients
can do a keyword search is extremely
helpful and a definite sales booster.
The program is easy to use and the Tech
Support is great. The “Behind the scenes”
set up for adding photos and indexing
is really easy to use and fast. Extreme
Nature Photography would not be possible
if it wasn’t for this great program
and the tech support folks at Lightbox
Photo."

"As a professional
wildlife and landscape photographer,
having a good website and an even better
online image library is an essential
part of my business. I've spent countless
hours searching the web for the right
image library software. Having a background
in internet marketing and SEO I knew
what I was looking for and after each
search, I returned to Lightbox Photo
Gallery Software. It's easy to set up
and use, flexible and most importantly,
it gives my customers what they are
looking for; a fast and easy way to
find the right image. In my opinion
Lightbox Photo excels in displaying
the image in the best possible way,
without compromising functionality and
user friendliness. This is what I was
looking for; the best combination to
satisfy the artist and the marketer
in me. Lightbox Photo Gallery Software
delivers."

"As a web design
agency (www.zinco.co.uk)
we were approached by a local photographer
to develop an online image library,
after researching the market we soon
realised that LightboxPhoto was the
best tool for the job. Our client is
really happy with his website and we
have found that LightboxPhoto is the
ideal software for developing a compelling
and professional online photographic
library. The software has many features
and has proved to be robust, reliable
and good value for money. But what makes
the software stand out from the crowd
is the high level of customer support
that LightboxPhoto provide. The team
at LightboxPhoto are forever helpful
and willing to go that extra mile to
provide 100% customer satisfaction.
If we get asked to develop another stock
image library we will definitely choose
LightboxPhoto!"

"After many years,
I have finally found the software I
trust to help me manage my images online
- just as I wanted it. The initial setup
for my old static website took me 3
months to develop. Lightbox took me
a week! The support from Lightbox has
been phenomenal! They are very quick
to respond to my questions - especially
with the time difference between us.
Thanks to Lightbox, no more lengthy,
time consuming web page development
for me. The limitations now lie with
me and how quickly I can caption and
keyword . . ."

"I have been looking
around for a long time and tried to
find the best solution to handle pictures
on the internet. There are many solutions
available on the Web, but many of them
are very poor or bad. After a long time
of searching for the best solution,
there were two choices left. One of
the choices was Lightbox Photo and another
that cost ten times more. The decision
was very easy and the choice was Lightbox
Photo Gallery. I am surprised of how
advanced this system is and since working
with Lightbox Photo, it is even more
advanced than I had even thought. Do
you need anything more than Lightbox
Photo? I don't think so... Together
with Fotostation it works perfectly."

"Having a sales and
marketing background, I knew if you
were serious about business you had
to be serious about Internet Marketing.
For years I looked for a way to build
a stock photo image site to offer the
photography of my husband Peter Sanderson
to a larger audience. All I could find
were very expensive custom-built options
where you were tied to dependence on
a website designer to change and manage
the site. This adds huge maintenance
expense and doesn't allow flexibility
or control by the owner of the business.
I was so delighted to find lightboxphoto.com,
which offered a package at a fraction
of the price, as well as powerful tools
and features that allow the owner easily
and efficiently to drive their own site,
and so drive their business further."

"Lightbox has been
an easy company to work with. They provided
an online proofing program for my wedding
and portrait clients that allows clients'
friends and family members from a distance
to see images and purchase them. Lightbox
matched my website's look and whenever
I want updates Lightbox has been quick
to respond. I recommend this company
to all professionals wanting to have
their images displayed in a clean and
professional manner".

"As a vendor who
works for both individuals and corporations
I have grown to understand the impossibility
of some of the most simplest sounding
requests. I have also found how some
of the most impossible sounding requests
can be easily met through creative application.
As a client I have learned how to get
what I deserve for my hard earned investment.
The folks at LightBoxPhoto not only
deliver a solution that is worth ten
times the investment, they do it without
hidden fees, with accountable support
that is easy to understand, in a package
that does not scream of their branding
and all in a manner that any business
could learn from when it comes to respect."

"Lightbox Photo has

"Have no doubts about
this brilliant software, buy it! As
a beginner to this type of website software
I was a little daunted at first, but
found I rapidly came to appreciate the
logic of the whole set up and soon made

help if you know something about basic
HTML/CSS for the template customisation,
but you will discover that the support
from the Lightbox team is comprehensive,
courteous, speedy and accurate."

and the rest at Lightbox. You've created
an invaluable piece of software and
backed it up with solid customer service.
Lightbox is easily the best, most affordable
way to get a searchable, sellable database
of images onto the web. It's flexible
enough to have allowed us a seamless
interface with our existing site and
the customer service has gone above
and beyond by upgrading features to
meet all of our "special" needs. Bottom
line is that Lightbox is a killer app
and terrific value."

"I gave myself six
months to find the right tools to manage
my pictures online. Traveling to computer
and photography shows should have given
me the best insight into the various
options on the market, plus talking
gave me a practical insight to what
they really offered. But it was the
internet that really gave me what I
really needed, Lightbox Photo. While
it's the easiest system to use that
I came across, it also offers the best
features in a flexible format where
I can really make my site my own, without
too much knowledge. But if your looking
to the one future that stands out, then
that has to be the support from Lightbox
Photo
TM, this has really been
second to none!!"

"The software that
Lightbox Photo has created is wonderful.
Well thought out and efficient, as well
as very user friendly. But we actually
chose to go beyond the scope of what
most users would require. This meant
some custom programming to which the
people at Lightbox Photo were extremely
helpful and have been an integral part
of the development team with our stock
website. I can only say, thank you Adrian
for a great team and knowing the true
meaning of customer service."

"We spent months
researching every single piece of software
to form the backbone of our new transport
and railway photograph archive. There
are many excellent programs in existence
but none combine a really good search
facility, with easy e-commerce support
and a very flexible design facility.
After trying four other programs on
our short-list, lightboxphoto emerged
as the clear favourite and that was
before we discovered the patient and
lightning-like support offered by the
Lightbox Photo team! Every little
query is dealt with seemingly whatever
the hour of day or night, and the result
is that our SOUTHERN IMAGES website
has been widely admired and applauded
for its appearance, features and functionality!
Many thanks...."

“I am simply amazed
with the functionality and features
of Lightbox Photo. The intuitive interface

the event that there are any issues,
Adrian is there to assist every step

with installation, he has spent much
time on the phone ensuring that I would

with friendly, personal support. Adrian
and Lightbox Photo have more than exceeded
my expectations."

"I'm a part time
event and outdoor portrait photographer,
busy developing a new business. I bought
the Lightbox Photo program in order
to add a customizable online ordering
module to my web site. I was a bit intimidated
at first, as it's been a long time since
I've taken on any web development work;
(and I never was particularly good at
it!). In a very short time this package
has allowed me to offer a professional,
customized online ordering component
for my customers. The key ingredient
has been outstanding customer service
by the fine staff at Lightbox Photo.
They answered every e-mail question
quickly and often called me to be sure
I had the information I needed. Follow
up has been outstanding. I would recommend
this package without hesitation to anyone
who needs a customized package for online
ordering."

"This is the best
script/photo gallery set up I was able
to find. Has everything you would need
and is fully customizable. You can integrate
it into your current design by simply
changing the templates inside the administrational
module. It is worth the extra $$$ at
the end, especially if you plan to sell
your art or photographs online as instant
downloads with PayPal. Supports other
file formats as well such as media files.
Many thumbs up for this one!"
