Creating a new shared album
You can add the contents of a folder to a new album. The album can be shared with
family and media players on the home network, and with friends and the public on the
Internet. Images in an album can be shared through RSS, Facebook or Flickr.
To create the album, select the folder, display the menu, and then select Share Selected
Items. By default, the album has the same name as the selected folder. Optionally enter
the Name of the album, and optionally enter a Description. Select a theme for the
album, or keep the default theme. Choose whom you want to share the album with, as
described in the following sections. Click Submit to create the album.
Allowing downloads
The album streams compressed images to conserve bandwidth and improve performance.
You can allow people viewing the album to download original full-resolution versions of
the files. This is especially important if the album contains documents, because the
album lists these files but cannot open them.
To allow files to be downloaded, select Allow downloads for this album.
