Is BubbleShare Free?
Yes! BubbleShare allows you to store your photos for free and share them with anyone. Photos shared with BubbleShare are shared in low resolution and they have
a discrete row of text ads. We will eventually offer a premium service.
I don't need to register? That's strange what's up?
That's right, you can create an album and share it without bothering to setup an account.
We think you
have enough passwords to remember! When you create an album with BubbleShare we will email you the link
to your album along with a link
to administer your album at any time in the future.
Note that at any time you can always create an account using that email address which gives you much more
functionality.
Why should I register?
By registering you have access to a more robust set of tools. You can manage multiple albums and
view albums people have sent to you. Registration is Free.
Once I register an email address why can't I continue to share Albums without logging in?
Once you register an email address, you must login to share your album. Creating an account prevents spoofing. Spoofing
is where one person sends something as though they were you. By creating an account you are 'locking down' your email address so that only
you can manage and share albums.
How long will my Album be available?
Your photos are stored in low resolution for 365 days. At the end of the year you can renew your
album for another free year at no cost.
Will BubbleShare launch a premium service?
Yes. But our mission will always be to provide fast and simple photo sharing as a free service. The premium service
will allow anyone to enhance their album, share higher resolution photos, and much more. We will announce details of the premium service at a
later time.
Creating an Album
How do I create an album?
Unlike other services, you do not need an account to create an Album. You can start creating an album right from
the main
BubbleShare website. Simply click 'Add Photos', and add as many photos as you like. Then click 'Create Album'. Follow the
on-screen instructions, and your album will be created for you.
Are there other ways to upload?
Yes, there are many ways to upload your photos to create an album:
Internet Explorer - Click "Batch photo uploader", and we'll give you instructions on how to
install and use our ActiveX uploader. This tool allows you quickly to drag and drop files right into the
BubbleShare website.
Firefox/Opera/Mozilla etc. - Click "Batch photo uploader", and you can use our Flash-based uploader to instantly upload a batch of photos. To select more than one file at a time, just click "Add photos" and hold down the CTRL key as you click on multiple photo files. Once you have added all of your photos, click 'Create Album'.
Macintosh iPhoto - Download the iPhoto plugin and you can create an album right from iPhoto.
Can I create more than one album?
Yes! You can create as many albums as you like!
Can I upload movies?
I'm afraid not, we are limited to photos at the moment.
Managing your Album
I created an Album without registering for an account, now how do I go back to it and edit it using the Slideshow Editor?
If you've created an album then we have already emailed you an administration link. Find the email in your inbox from BubbleShare with the subject called "Administration Link". Follow the link provided in that email to return to the editor so you can edit your Album.
If you forget where you've put the email, or accidentally delete it you can create a new account. All of the Albums you previously created will be accessible
Sharing your Album
How do I share an Album?
There are two easy ways to share your album:
1) From the Slideshow Editor, simply click the "Share Album" button and enter the email addresses of the people you wish to share your Album with.
2) When you created your album we emailed you the link to your Album. Check you email inbox for an email from BubbleShare with a
subject of "Share Your Album". Simply forward this email to your friends.
Can I share my Album on a blog?
Sure! You can post your photo album on your blog by clicking the “Add Album to My Blog” button. Just copy the code and place into your post. Voila!
Who can see my photos?
Only the people you share your photos with.
