mouth.
San Francisco, California, September 15, 2003 - PictureTrail,
a popular online Photo Sharing destination announced today it has reached the milestone

PictureTrail has grown vigorously since its launch in 2000.
With minimal focus on marketing or public relations, its steady increase of users
from around the world has been fueled mainly by satisfied members getting friends

almost entirely by word of mouth," said Val D'Souza, President of PictureTrail.

has concentrated its efforts on optimizing user experience and making it as easy
as possible to manage and share photos on the site.
"We receive regular feedback from our members praising
the various customization options for their images and albums," said D'Souza.
"It's not only the increasing array of background patterns, album covers
and music styles, but also the functional aspects of the site, like our Image
View statistics that allow users to see how many visitors view which albums and
pictures."
But the human element has also contributed to PictureTrail's
rapid growth.
"Many of the members who contact our customer service end
up writing us thank you notes praising our support personnel as articulate, patient
and personable," said James Marte, Member Services Manager of PictureTrail.
