How to Use the Kodak Easyshare Gallery
The Kodak EasyShare Gallery, which is often referred more simply as the Kodak Gallery, stores digital images online. You can email or share on Facebook the digital images you upload to and store in the Kodak Gallery. Using the Kodak Gallery online photo storage program, you can also edit your photos, order Kodak prints or turn them into a physical photo album. While the Kodak EasyShare Gallery is free to create, you are required to purchase Kodak services to keep the account longer than 90 days.
