Creating a public link to an album
To share an album with anyone, including users without a FotoWeb account, generate a public link.

When viewing an album, click the Get link in the top-right corner.
This will create a public link to the album that can be shared via email, instant messaging, or any other means. Anyone who gets the link can access the album.
If you have permission to grant download rights to the users you share the album with, those users will also be able to download the original files.
Revoking a public link
Clicking Remove under the public link URL will remove the link, rendering it unusable. This may be useful if you no longer want unauthenticated users to access the album. To reissue a new, unique link, click Get link again. This link will differ from the last one, so users with the old link will not be able to access the album.
Alternatives to sharing an album via a public link
For more fine-grained access control, you can also share an album with individual users or groups on the FotoWeb server, and with individual users by their email address.
And if you'd like to showcase an album to all users who visit the FotoWeb site, you don't need to generate a public link as described above. Instead, showcase the album on the FotoWeb homepage.
