Retrieving images and video via the Web
Note: To retrieve full-size photos and videos from the Web, you must not be preventing photo printing and full-size downloads.
Download a single image
- Visit your Phanfare web site at yourusername.phanfare.com.
- Click on an album and then click on an individual image.
- Click the "Download Hi-Res" link on the options menu to the right of or superimposed on top of the photo or video.
Download an entire album
1. Visit your Phanfare web site at yourusername.phanfare.com.
2. Click on an album and then click on an individual image.
3. Click the "Download Album" link on the options menu to the right of or superimposed on top of the photo or video.
4. Now you can configure your download options.
- Hi-Res Images: Choose this to download the full-size image. If web-size versions of the image are all you need, you can deselect this option and the download will be much faster.
- Include Videos: If you deselect this option, the download will include a still picture of the first frame of the video instead of the video itself. It can make for a much smaller and faster download.
- All Album Sections: This option only appears if your album has multiple sections. If you only want to download the photos and videos from the current section, deselect this option.
Note: Download Album will only download photos that aren't marked as Hidden in the Phanfare client. If you want to download all photos and videos including hidden items, use the Export Album feature in the Phanfare client. See below.
