sharing photos

Post by han » Wed Sep 23, 2009 4:04 pm

hello
i have some holiday photos i'd like to share with the people in my place
ive put them on facebook

does anyone know if i put the facebook album link into a post in place if that allows people to see the photos, but not see my IRL info?

or

does anyone know a way to put the photos from facebook into a post on bus? or do i need to use something like photobucket instead?

thanks!

at the bottom of each album (and i think each pic) will be a link that says share photos or something similar. it looks like http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=8 ... 9aeef6a523.
that will link to a page showing the album without someone needing to be on facebook. if you want the actual image to be shown in a bus post, i'm not sure if facebook will let you do so, you might want to try photobucket or similar if you really want that.

the title of the page is [facebook name]-photos so anyone accessing it can see your name. if already on facebook they might have access to your public fb profile BUT not directly linked to the album page. your public profile is only things you have allowed to be seen by non-friends, you might want to check privacy settings for that, but if just knowing your full name and seeing your list of friends, which everyong will be able to see via the photos, is too intrusive, then try another way of doing it?
