Uploading Pics / Files

Regular users  use the "regular" http upload. Regular HTTP uploads use the browser's built-in capabilities to upload files to the server.

Now you may upload your files using the upload boxes below. The size of files uploaded from your client to the server should not exceed 250 KB each.
When using the URI/URL upload section, please enter the path to the file like so: http://www.mysite.com/images/example.jpg

When you have completed the form, please click 'Continue'.

Editing Files

This is where you can modify the title description, keywords and custom fields (if they are used) of a file.

Use the album drop down menu to move the file to another album.
