Visitors to your site see the Album and its section table of contents. So if you happened to be Landon Donovan, you might have an album called World Cup 2006 with sections for Czech Mate, Italian Generosity and Ghana Gone. You can now have sections in any online album.

This release also turns out to be not only a sneak preview of the Mac version but a sneak peek of some new features coming to the Windows version in a few days. The Mac beta kept pace with new features introduced in the Windows version, but as Phanfare CEO Andrew Erlichson put it, this Universal Binary release 'is definitely 1.0.' Then we started playing with the alpha Mac version in August and the beta in September. We reviewed the Windows version of Phanfare Photo in March of last year ( ). The team used Phanfare Photo to upload almost all of them while the Phanfare server kept up with the demands of thousands of readers downloading gigabytes of data. In fact, it's one reason Imaging Resource was able to produce over 760 photos (some of them panoramas) and over a dozen videos for our PMA 2006 coverage earlier this year. Which is $6.95 a month, $54.95 a year or $299.95 for a lifetime membership. We think that alone is worth the price of admission.

It also distinguishes itself by giving you access to your collection from any computer with the organizer installed.

Phanfare ( ) is the subscription-based sharing site that stands out from the crowd with its 'zero-click' Web publishing, uploading your captioned images and video to attractively designed Web albums in the background while you work on world peace, global warming and raising your heirs.
