Things You'll Need:

• People who have a Yahoo account you want to add to your friends list

Add People to your Friends List

1. Click “Add Friends” on the home page.

2. Add people to your "Friends" list by entering their Yahoo ID screen names into the search field. If you are adding more than one at the same time, separate each name with commas.

Share your Photos with Friends via Email

4. Click on an album name in your list.

5. Click “Share” on the taskbar, then select “Album” to share the entire album. If you don't want to share everything, drag and drop only the photos you want into the photo tray, and click “Share.”

6. Click “Share by Email.”

7. Add the email address of your friends in the “To” field. If you want to add a personal message, enter it into the field labeled “Enter optional message here.”

8. Click “Send.”

Tips & Warnings

• You can share individual photos from multiple albums, as well as the “All My Photos” collection. The photo tray will retain the photos you’ve selected as you move between different albums.
• If you want to share just one photo, click on that photo to select it. Choose “Share,” then “Share by Email” under the “Photos” heading.
• To share photos with multiple people at the same time, separate each email address with a comma followed by a space. There’s no need to add a comma to the last email address on the list.
• If you've shared photos that you decide later you want private, you need to delete those photos from your account and re-upload them.
• People who share photos with you are automatically added to your friends list. If you share photos with someone, you’ll be added automatically to theirs.
• You cannot share Smart Albums or the entire “All My Photos” collection via email. Those collections change over time. You can only share individual photos from these collections.
• Your photos will be viewable by email recipients for up to 90 days from the date you send the email invitation. If the person you sent photos forwards your email to anyone, they will be able to view the photos, too--even if they’re labeled private.
