1. Go to Share.Pho.to and click Upload your photos

Now  click the 'Choose photos to upload' button. You can add any number of photos  at a time. Press Ctrl-key (or Cmd-key if you are on a Mac) and select all the files  you want to upload. Or you can simply hold down the left mouse button and draw a rectangle. All the photos inside the rectangle will be added to your photo set.

Pick some photos from a folder

Tip: If you' have picked the wrong picture click the large white 'X' at the top right of it. This photo will be removed from your photo set.

Remove the photos you do not want to share


2. Add a few more photos.

The Ctrl-key trick only works if you stay in the same folder. If you go to another folder your selection will be cancelled. Do not worry, you are perfectly able to add photos to your photo set from different directories. Select some photos from the first folder, click 'Open' and wait for photos to upload. Press the 'Add more photos' button in the top left corner then. See, now you can add photos from another folder. Click the 'Done' button when you are ready!

Share all the photos in one photo set


3. The final touch: add a caption to  your photo set and photos.

Sometimes you want to label your photos with funny captions or just indicate when and where a photo was taken. To add a caption to an album you can either click 'Add photo set caption' on top of the page or click the 'Change photo set caption' link on the right. You can add different captions to all the photos in your album, too. When you click an individual photo you get the same options for captioning it.

Add captions

Tip: To make your photos look fabulous you can apply beautiful photo effects at Funny.Pho.to.  Remember that a nice picture can tell a thousand words.


4. Your photo set is ready to share!

That is it, you are all done. Your brand-new album and all the photos have intuitive URLs starting with http://pho.to. For example, our sample album URL is http://pho.to/3k53. Your friends will immediately know if you send them photos by the way the link looks.

Share your photo set or any photo the way you prefer:

  • Copy and send a short  link to your photo set or an individual photo

  • Share photos to your favorite social network in one click

  • Get an embed code for forums or websites

Many ways to share photos


5. Get feedback from your friends.

Your friends cannot add captions to photos , however, they can add comments to photo sets or individual photos. We have set up reliable Disqus comments on Share.Pho.to. Your friends can log in with a social network account or post comments as guests. Comments are updated in real time and it is really easy to manage them.

Adding comments is easy

Tip: If you are not comfortable with the idea of comments, click 'Disable commenting' in the Admin area on the right to turn them off.


6. Control your photo sets.

Only you can access your photo set Admin area . To have this access to the photo set admin options from everywhere, copy and save the 'Permanent admin link'. If you try to open your photo set on another device or with another browser without using the permanent admin link, you will not get admin rights.

If you think that you might need to delete your photo set quickly you should save the 'Permanent deletion link'. If you follow this link from any device your photo set is instantly deleted. Be careful as you cannot undo it!

Save these links


7. Use Share.Pho.to on your phone.

If you have an iPhone or an Android phone you can create photo sets on the go. The apps are free and as easy to use as the web service is. Get Share.Pho.to on the App Store or download it from Google Play.
