Those sound pretty cool. :) The photo albums will go a long way to helping with the stories told :D Not that I'm worried about it at all, but... what sort of limits are you going to put on the uploading of pics? With the cheapness of storage space now days, I'd suspect no lack of file space... but it adds up. There's some education involved as well... no use having a bunch of space if folks are going to upload full size (uncompressed) pics. Maybe ther should be a time limit to auto-delete old pics? Recommendations on file sizing would be nice. Dare I request a short tutorial for those that don't know?? or am I expecting too much? Should people know about file conversion by now?

re: Picture Limits
You can have a maximum of 5 albums, that contain up to 25 pictures each.
Maximum File Size per Picture 300.0 KB
Maximum Picture Dimensions 600 by 600 Pixels
Pictures will be automatically resized to fit within these constraints if possible. However, you may receive better results by doing it manually.

This information is included in the Photo Album upload screen.
