As noted in Lightroom to connect to stock agencies?, the release of the Lightroom SDK has started the first of some export-to-website type plug-ins...

Not using any of these particular services, I'm curious how these work for people. Any reviews would be appreciated!

Brian, anything out there that will Link LR catalogs to online print services, such as Labprints or ROES for WHCC?

Thought I posted this already? Me guess not.

I haven't seen any export direct to a print service, but I have heard that it was in the works. The SDK is pretty new right now, so it will take a bit of time to "ramp up". I am sure the ones linked to above are just a taste of what will come from other developers and companies.

Print orders from events are usually collections from a single group of images. I can use LR now to maintain those smaller collections (orders) but have to put them in a seperate folder, temporarily, since the ordering software doesn't see the LR collections. If there was a way for it to link to ROES or whatever, it would be very useful.

Given the way a lot of us are starting to use LR now, it wouldn't surprise me if this happened fairly soon, even with plug-ins published straight from the labs. I haven't seen anything yet, though.

Thanks for posting this. I'd not heard about this before.

I installed the one for smugmug and it worked great! It seems to put the title from LR into the caption field in smug. But other than that, it's really nice so far.
