I’d like to store my photos in a solid POD for sharing with other people, annotating them, etc.

Are there existing Solid apps which support this?

If not I’d like to have a go at building something myself. What would be a good starting point for building such an app?

you can simply drag & drop your pic on the green plus in the databrowser

or use poPock [PoPock](https://scenaristeur.github.io/solid-vue-panes/) to send many files at the same time

I’ve made a portfolio app [portfolio](https://scenaristeur.github.io/portfolio/) that add a watermark to your pics  
with code here [GitHub - scenaristeur/portfolio: Portfolio webapp running on Solid platform with vuejs](https://github.com/scenaristeur/portfolio/)  
and tuto for building same app [Portfolio : How to create a Vuejs Portfolio App on Solid](https://spoggy-test6.solidcommunity.net/public/blog/portfolio.html)  
Would be happy if you have feedback, and want to collaborate 😉
