Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 28 Send Message	I have recently found a number of photographs in our family box but we have no idea who they are. Please look carefully at them for us and contact me if you have any idea who or where they may be. Many thanks. :-)

	Welcome to the boards Linda. You need to give a link to the photos so we can see them, although it is highly unlikely that anyone will know who the people in the photos are. Someone may be able to identify where they were taken (depending on the photos). Kath. x

Member Since: January 2003 Posts: 28 Send Message	Thank you for your help. The photos are in my keepsafe in a folder named Linda's mystery photos and my account name is Linda Varley. I don't know how to allow others to view this folder.

	Edit the particular folder or photo so that it is 'shared with everyone', in the 'privacy menu. Then copy and paste the url from your browser bar, into your next post on this thread. EG: http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/keepsafe/asset/edit/10919566 links you to a photo of a letter from a WWi soldier in my keepsafe. I assume it will work the same for a folder, but I'm not very IT literate.

	It didn't work for me, Linda, but I can't give advice. I've never done it myself. Did you edit it so it is shared with everyone?

	I think you've given the link to your Folder. You need to view each individual photo and give the various urls. Look at the url that Kucinta posted - the last 3 sections are asset/edit/10919566 Yours is folder/contents/14766 - You have FOLDER, she has ASSET.
