You can upload your photos individually using the Basic Uploading Tool, or you can upload multiple photos at once with the Advanced Uploading Tool.

NOTE: The Advanced Uploading Tool requires the Image Uploader ActiveX control.

To use the Advanced Uploading Tool, follow the directions on the Add Photos page. If you do not see any information under '2. Select and upload your photos', you must re-install the Image Uploader ActiveX control or use the Basic Uploading Tool.

If you use the Basic Uploading Tool, individual files you upload can be up to 50MB in size. When using the Advanced Uploading Tool, Photo Album uploads your files in pairs; it uploads the first two files, then the next two, and so forth. The combined file size of each pair can be up to 50MB.

You can upload photos in the JPG, BMP, or GIF file formats.
