Neighborhood festivals and community association events bring together participants from all generations - from small children to seniors. While everyone wants to share photos, not everyone is connected via LINE.

Photo Sharing Challenges at Community Events

Local events come with their own unique challenges.

  • Participants span a wide age range with varying levels of tech literacy
  • Many residents don't have each other's contact information
  • Some people prefer not to join personal LINE groups
  • Distributing photos via community circulars is too much work
  • Community newsletters can only feature a limited number of photos

Simple Sharing with QR Code Display

Just display a PicTomo QR code at the venue, and participants can freely upload and view photos. No app installation or account registration required, so even those unfamiliar with smartphones can use it with confidence.

QR Code Placement Locations

  • Registration tent: Guide people when they check in
  • Main headquarters tent: Display prominently in A4 size
  • Community bulletin board: Place where people naturally look
  • On the back of staff name tags: Ready to show whenever someone asks

Using Photos as Event Records

Community event photos serve as important records too.

  • Use in community newsletters for event coverage
  • Reference for next year's event planning
  • Introducing the community to newcomers: Show them "We have fun events like these!"
  • Grant reports: Use as photographic evidence of activities

Privacy Considerations

Privacy is especially important at community events. Announce the photography and photo sharing rules beforehand. Getting parental consent for children's photos and discouraging social media reposts - establishing clear rules helps prevent issues.

Summary

Community association event photos are valuable records that strengthen neighborhood bonds. Adopt a photo sharing system that anyone can use regardless of age or tech skills, and preserve community memories together.
