Photostream on the web

[mattpreston11]

So ive taken a picture with my iOS5 iphone and have an icloud account and photostream enabled.

So I should be able to see my picture when I login to icloud.com?

Unless I have misunderstood it.

I was thinking the same. I guess we have to wait for the official release of io5?

The GM will be identical to release today.

Almost feel like ive taken a step backwards from mobileme to icloud.

I will certainly miss "Gallery". I used to share photo's with relatives using this by uploading albums via iPhoto.

Not sure what to do now.

Looks like it will be flickr or photobucket.

Be nice if you could integrate them properly though, like now how you can tweet things within the OS.

Maybe there is an email address with photobucket or flickr you can send pics directly to?

Flickr has an email address that you can send pictures to, not sure about photobucket

I think there is a flickr upload option in iPhoto as well as Facebook and mobileme. (i'm not on my Mac at the mo so i'm not sure. Was hoping to keep everything Apple without having to rely on 3rd parties. Oh well, Apple will need to buy flickr.

just found this...

Looks like I need a flickr account.

No, there's no photo viewer in iCloud.com

iCloud is just a conduit to sync your photos between your iDevices (iOS5 needed), your Macs (OSX 10.7.2 and iPhoto 9.2 needed) and Windows (iCloud control panel needed).
