| Q: | What are the guidelines for
uploading images? |
| A: | Images uploaded on the fotozon.com web
site are automatically re-sized to be in a smaller format suitable for online viewing. If you prefer to do you your own
resizing, you can make the upload process a lot quicker and upload the exact image you want. Use a photo editing software
such as Photo-Shop and edit your images to a size less than 900 pixels on the largest
dimension. Images less than 900 pixels will not be resized for the foto view pages. They will only be resized for the
thumbnail, square and medium size images. |

| Q: | What are the guidelines for uploading text descriptions? |
| A: | Text descriptions are limited to 1000 characters for free accounts and unlimited for upgraded acconts. Some HTML is ok, such as bold, italic, paragraph, line break and font. Links to outside websites are ok too, however they will be checked for accuracy and removed if they point to a non-existent web page. |

|
| Q: | How do I let others know when I've uploaded new pictures? |
| A: | You'll see a link on the bottom of every one of your public pages labeled "Alert". Simply have your guests click on that link and follow the simple verification to start receiving automatic notifications whenever new material is uploaded. You can also click on the link and add the email of your friend or family member, however please note that in order to protect against un-authroized email and spam, the person receiving the alerts MUST verify their email before they receive any notices. New pictures are scanned automatically three times a day by our alert system and guests will only receive an email when fotos are added to the homepage or album they have indicated interest in. |

| Q: | What's the maximum size file I can upload? |
| A: | Technically, you are limited to 5MB per image file. However, because you can uplaod up to 6 images at the same time, you can actually upload much larger files (up to 30MB) if you only upload one image at a time. Although the upload limit is huge at FotoZon, please keep in mind that larger image sizes can take a long time to upload and may result in a network timeout error during your upload. |
