=======================
## How do I upload a photo?
Go to your OpenPhoto site (it'll look like yourusername.openphoto.me) and click Upload. Click Add Photos and add the photos you'd like to upload. You can also add attributes that'll apply to all the photos uploaded in that batch, such as a tag, an album, a privacy setting, or a license.
Go to your Trovebox site (it'll look like yourusername.trovebox.com) and click Upload. Click Add Photos and add the photos you'd like to upload. You can also add attributes that'll apply to all the photos uploaded in that batch, such as a tag, an album, a privacy setting, or a license.
## How do I delete a photo?
Visit Photos under the Manage dropdown menu at your OpenPhoto site while logged in. From there, hover over the photo(s) you want to delete and click the checkmark that appears. Click Batch Edit and select Delete.
Visit your gallery or an album. Hover over the photo you want to delete. You'll see the title of the photo along with a few icons. Click the trash can to delete the photo.
## How do I change the privacy setting of a photo?
You can do this by visiting the individual photo or by finding that photo in a gallery or album. In gallery or album view, hover over the photo you want to change to private (or public). You'll see the title of the photo along with a few icons, including a lock. In full detail view, you'll see the photo's privacy on the right side with the rest of the photo info. An unlocked lock indicates a public photo, while a locked one means the photo is private. Click the lock to toggle the privacy setting.
## How do I edit the title or description of a photo?
Visit the photo whose info you want to edit, then click the title or description. Enter your new title or description in the box that appears and save. You can also edit the title directly from the gallery or album view.
## How do I share a photo?
While viewing your photo gallery or an individual photo, click Share (or the curved right-pointing arrow). Select whether you want to share via email, Twitter, or Facebook, and share away.
## How do I download an individual photo?
You can download a photo directly if you or the user has enabled that option in the settings page. To do so, view the full details of the photo you want to download and click the Download link on the right hand side.
## Where does the image for my user photo come from? How can I change it?
We use Gravatar to set your original user photo, and you can change it across Gravatar by visiting their site and changing your photo there. If you'd like to set one of your uploaded photos as your user photo, visit your gallery, find a photo you'd like to use, and select the human silhouette.
## What are albums? How do they work?
An album is a collection of photos grouped around a theme of your choice. This lets you share many photos with friends or browse your own photos more easily. Albums can be public or private on your albums page.
## How do I create an album?
While you're logged into your OpenPhoto site, visit Albums under the Manage menu. Enter the name of your album under the Create Album section and click Create.
While you're logged into your Trovebox site, visit Albums. Select Create Album, enter the name of your album under the Create Album section, and click Create.
## How do I add a photo to an album?
You can add a photo to an album by editing an individual photo's details or batch editing photos.
## How do I edit a photo's details?
Visit the photo's page and click "Edit Details". Then you can edit the title, description, tags, location, albums, groups, privacy, and license.
You can add a photo to an album by hovering over the photo in your gallery and pinning it. Then select Batch Edit and Add to Album. Select the album you want to add the photo to and save.
## How do I edit multiple photos at once?
Visit Photos under the Manage dropdown menu at your OpenPhoto site while logged in. From there, hover over the photo(s) you want to edit and click the checkmark that appears. Click Batch Edit and select the detail you want to edit, change the detail, and click Submit.
Visit your Gallery at your Trovebox site. From there, hover over the photo(s) you want to edit and click the pin that appears. Click Batch Edit and select the detail you want to edit, change the detail, and click Submit.
## What are groups? How do they work?
Groups let you share a photo with certain people without exposing the photo to the entire Web. Want to share photos from that party last week but don't want just anyone seeing them? Add the photos to a private group that only your friends have access to.
## How do I add a friend to a group?
Visit Groups under the Manage menu and create a name for a group. From there you can add your friends by email address. They can log in with Mozilla Persona or Facebook to view the photos.
## How do I add a photo to a group?
When you upload a photo, you can select a group for the photo to be part of. This is completely optional. You can also change the group(s) a photo is part of at the Manage Photos menu.
## How do I share a private photo?
We're currently working on a new way to share private photos. Look for it soon.
