We are definitely planning on allowing users to share images publicly in the future. There is a lot of exciting stuff coming down the pipeline. Stay tuned!

Technically Digital Ocean already does, but only between developers.

Andrew - That's awesome!

It would be pretty sweet if Digital Ocean had a "Make publicly available" option for your snapshots and so could be displayed on a market. It would be even cooler if Digital Ocean could allow you to charge for the snapshots (one-time fee, hourly, monthly, or yearly).
