1. Select the photos or video clips you want to publish.

   You can also select an entire Event or album.

2. Click the Share button in the toolbar, and then choose MobileMe from the pop-up menu.

3. Select the album to add the photos to (or select New Album and type a name for the album).

4. Choose who can view your published album from the “Album Viewable by” pop-up menu:

   • Everyone: Publishes the album as a public site. Anyone who has the website address can view the album.

   • Only me: Limits viewers to you alone. The album doesn’t appear on your Gallery homepage.

   • Edit Names and Passwords: Allows you to require a password or to limit viewing to certain people or groups. In the window that appears, enter one or more user names and passwords. The user names will then appear in the “Album Viewable by” pop-up menu.

   The published album associated with a particular person or group is listed next to the user name and password.

5. Select additional publishing options:

   • Allow downloading of photos or entire album: Allows viewers to download photos from your published album, or the entire album, to their computer.

   • Allow uploading of photos via web browser: Allows viewers to upload photos to your published album.

   • Allow adding of photos via email: Allows you or others to send photos to your published album from a mobile phone, other mobile device, or computer.

   • Show photo titles: Displays your photo titles in the published album.

   • Show email address for uploading photos: Displays an email address on your published album, where viewers can email photos to upload to your album. (This option is available only if you select “Allow adding of photos via email.”)

6. If you want, you can click the Show Advanced button for additional options:

   • Hide album on my Gallery page: Makes your album visible only at its own website address (which you can give to friends and family), but not from your Gallery homepage.

   • Download quality: Sets the resolution (size) of the photo or photos you’re publishing. (If this checkbox is dimmed, select the “Allow downloading” option, above.)

   • Optimized: Allows the fastest publishing with high quality. This size can be used to print photos up to 16 by 20 inches.

   • Actual Size: Publishes the photo at the same resolution as the original. This size is usually larger and may take longer to upload to your Gallery.
