About .pictures
Pictures covers more ground than photos or photo, since a picture can be a drawing, a screenshot, or a film still as well as a photograph; it is also the word film studios put in their own names, as in Miramax Pictures. That breadth makes it suit illustrators, meme sites, and production companies as much as photographers.
Suits: Production companies, illustrators, and meme or image-sharing sites.
It is one of 33 creative and publishing endings in the catalog.
What a .pictures costs
$60 a year. One flat shelf price in dollars, drawn from your credit balance — there is no first-year discount that triples at renewal, and no fee for the privacy, because the name is registered in our name by default rather than as a paid extra.
The catalog lands on 5 price bands, and .pictures sits in the $60 one alongside 122 other endings. 19 endings are cheaper and 246 cost more.
| Term | Price | Per year |
|---|---|---|
| 1 year | $60 | $60 |
| 2 years | $120 | $60 |
| 3 years | $180 | $60 |
| 5 years | $300 | $60 |
| 10 years | $600 | $60 |
DNS on the name is included and never billed. This registry supports DNSSEC.
Registering a .pictures anonymously
Offbook never asks who you are. Opening an account takes an email address you invent, a password and an invite code — no legal name, no address, no phone number, no card and no identity documents. Funding is crypto, so no bank or processor is in a position to demand them.
The .pictures is then held in our name rather than yours, so the public record has nothing of yours to show. You keep operational control of the name — DNS, renewals and where it points — from the desk or through the API. Read more on anonymous domain registration.

Nothing on file. Nothing to leak.
An email you invent, an invite code, and crypto. That is the entire relationship.
