Put the best or clearest image first
The first image tells people they opened the right set. For events, start with the group or highlight shot. For products or listings, start with the main view.
How to create a simple online album
1. Pick a focused set
Choose up to 25 photos or short videos that belong together. If the album has multiple topics, split it into multiple shares.
2. Generate the share
Create one browser link and one QR code from the same share. Use the link online and the QR code in physical spaces.
3. Set the window
Use a view limit or expiry when the album is temporary, private, or meant for a specific review period.
What makes the album easy to browse
One entry point
Use one link instead of scattered files
An album link is easier to send, resend, and close than a pile of attachments. It also gives you one place to point people when they ask for the photos later.
Controls
Decide how long the album should stay open
Some albums can stay available longer. Others are temporary: a school event, a proof set, or a quick family batch. Choose a window before sending so the album has a clean ending.
Album checklist
- Use one purpose per album: event, family batch, product set, listing, or preview.
- Keep it under 25 files so the album opens and scans quickly.
- Put the most helpful image first.
- Add a short description so recipients understand the album context.
- Use the link in chat or email; use the QR code on cards, signs, or slides.
- Set expiry or revoke access when the album is no longer needed.
FAQ
