Many members have been requesting a way they can order prints from their TotSite. We are proud to announce the new TotSites Photo Center is finally here!
Why use the TotSites Photo Center?
- 50 FREE prints for new accounts
- 5 cent *everyday* pricing - We encourage you to try to find a better deal!
- Great quality - all prints are done on Fuji photo paper
How do I get started?
- Go to the TotSites Photo Center and then follow the steps to create a photo printing account and upload your photos.
Can my family order prints and do I need to upload my photos twice?
- Anyone can create a TotSites Photo Center account. They do not need to be a member of TotSites.
- If you are a TotSites member, we highly recommend you create a generic Photo account to share with your family to upload photos you wish to share with everyone. Each family member can then enter their own address information and pay for prints themselves using your photos. This way Grandma who lives 300 miles away can order a print of that adorable Zoo picture at any time. Of course this is optional and you are welcome to keep your account private (or create two accounts and get 100 free prints!)
- You do need to upload your high resolution photo separately to the Photo Center. When you add photos to your TotSite we automatically resize the images for your site before you upload them (with the EZ Photo Upload). This allows you to upload your photos up to 50 times faster! Typically members share more photos on their TotSite then they want to print - so you get the chance to upload your print quality photos separately and in most cases saving you tons of time!
What’s Next?
We will be adding new features later this year to help you better integrate the print photo center with your TotSite. Stay tuned!
If you have any questions or concerns please contact support or post a comment in the community forums. We hope all of you take advantage of your 50 free prints and check it out.

There have been many request for a Hockey Design in the style of our popular football and baseball designs. The playoffs are in full swing, but even if your team is no longer in contention you can support them by decorating your hockey theme with your squad’s colors. Better yet, your Tot will be immortalized with a personalized retired hockey sweater hanging from the rafters (and if you have twins, both will get their due recognition).
We hope you enjoy the new Hockey Design. See your star Tot’s name in lights!

1) Some FireFox and Safari users experienced a problem when choosing fonts for their homepage and journal sections. We made an update this afternoon that should solve this issue for any new or updated entries.
2) We will be posting an update to the EZ Photo upload next week that you will need to “install” before you can upload more photos. When the update is ready, more information will be posted when you login to your site.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
We’ve received a lot of requests for additional sports-related designs, so we picked a popular theme that would work for the boys and the girls out there. Have fun with the new soccer theme, with special rotating images for either gender. And don’t forget to admire the new scrolling reader board feature that displays your baby stats!
Check out the new Soccer Design!
