On April 22, 2009 we upgraded KeepandShare to a major new photo application that provides many new features. That is the photo application in KeepandShare today. Previous to April 2009, we had an earlier generation photo application called 'photoblogs'.

KeepandShare new photo application is upwards compatible with photoblogs. Any photoblogs you have already created will appear just the same, just as your photoblog folders will be unchanged. If you edit old photoblogs, you can even insert newly uploaded photos into them with the insert photo icon.

With the new KeepandShare Photo application, however, you gain significant new functionality. Managing your photo library is much more capable, including editing, tagging and searching of individual photos. And photo librarys can now be viewed in five different styles: light table, film strip, blog, scatter blog, and slide show.

For photoblog style, just view in the new 'blog' or 'scatter blog' styles, which give you a vertical scroll just like the old photo blogs. However, what is no longer possible with the new photo application is creating 'by hand' custom layouts inside of your photo blog using advanced editing with HTML tables and HTML formatting. If you want, you can still create documents in the KeepandShare document application and insert photos into it and have full HTML editing flexibility for custom layouts.

Many people loved telling stories with KeepandShare's photo blogs where you could put unlimited text before and after photos. Yes, you can absolutely still do this! Every photo accepts both a title field and a description field. These each contain large amounts of text, and each is displayed with the photo in all album views. So, to tell a story in photo blog style, simply write your sentences and paragraphs in the description field and view the album in 'blog' mode.

An important user tip: after you have finished adding a title or description to a photo, instead of clicking on 'Save', click on the yellow 'Next' button and it will both save the current photo and take you to the next one - speeding the addition of photo titles and descriptions.

Yes you can. 'Photo rolls' are groups of photos uploaded before April 22, 2009. To access your old photo rolls, edit a photo blog or document, then click on the 'Insert Photo' icon command. The Insert Photo dialog allows you to select your newly uploaded photos, but you can also access old photo rolls by clicking on the blue link 'Click here for old photo rolls' (it's on the right side under the yellow search button).

No, photos uploaded before April 22, 2009 do not count against your account limits. Feel free to keep all these old photos around.

No, you cannot, but you can simply re-upload your photos to use them in new albums. Here's why: the old style 'photo rolls' (photos uploaded before April 22, 2009) are much less capable than photos uploaded after April 22nd. For instance, new photos are much higher resolution, can be edited, have titles and descriptions applied, and support powerful 'tagging' and searching. Because old style 'photo rolls' are missing all these features, the old photo rolls cannot be used in new photo albums. We suggest you simply re-upload your old photos again - you'll gain all the benefits of the new photo capabilities.

Yes. There are two methods: (1) In the photo application, make a copy of an older blog, retitle it, delete existing photos, and proceed with inserting photos into it with the tool bar's 'insert photo' icon command; or (2) Create a document in the document application and insert photos into it with the same 'insert photo' icon.

No, photo blogs created before April 22, 2009 cannot be converted into new albums. You should re-upload your original photos and create a new album if you want the new style albums.
