Shared Photo Album

I have set up a web album for everyone to post photos to. The easiest way to add photos is to:

  1. Put your photos onto your PC as usual

  2. Download Picasa

  3. If Picasa does not find your photos automatically then import them manually

  4. To upload photos, select the photos you want to upload and use the "Web Album" button (large icon at bottom of screen). In the wizard you will need to "Sign In" as an existing user. The username is MtBlancGimps@gmail.com and the password is an essential piece of mountain climbing equipment that any self-respecting individual will not do with out (all one word).

  5. Once signed in, selcet the "Add to an existing album" option and then select "Mt Blanc Ascent September 2007" in the album title field. Finally, in the "Upload Setting" select the "Slowest Upload, Largest Size" option so everybody can get best quality photos for printing.

  6. Once your photos are in you can add captions, tags etc like this example. We can also add suitably inappropriate comments to any photos (a play ground for Mr.Mawson I fear)
(If you are a budding commercial photogrpher bear in mind these photos are available to anybody with nothing better to do)
