Default WiFi Picture Frames

I bought my Gma a digital picture frame a couple years ago. She loves it, but she complains about how she has the same pictures all the time. And "none of my grandkids visit me enough to keep it updated". I wish there was some way for us to update her picture frame automatically.

I have been told that some of the new WiFi picture frames can retrieve pictures from a website that all of her grandkids could remotely add photos too. Is this true? Does anyone have experience with this type of product? How does it work?

Thanks for the help CP!!

No experience, but I was thinking of getting one for my mom. From what I can tell, you just configure it for their Wi-fi network, set it up to pull pictures from Flickr or other photo sharing site, and then whenever you add pictures to that Flickr account, they automatically show up on her frame.

This made me laugh. Yes. A wifi picture frame sounds like exactly what she is looking for.
