I was trying to set up a guest account so that someone can download photos from my site. I've got the "originals" turned on in the account I was testing it on ("Sassi" within the 2007 ski folder"), but I can't see the download functionality (the little folder bar).

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

    Hi :)

    You have protection turned on in that gallery. That will keep the save photo on the photobar from appearing.

    Protection?
    Thanks Barb.

    Is there a way for my guest to download photos from the site without me turning off the protection for everyone else?

    Guests can go into the gallery tools area. They could turn protection off, download the photos, and then turn it back on. Another idea would be to place those photos in a password protected gallery. You assign the password and only those with that password would be able to view the photos. You could then turn protection off and leave it off. An idea.

    With originals on click original on photobar. Right click doesn't work on original. But in FF goto page info, select media tab, scroll down to image and
    click save. :D

    Thanks for the help
    I ended up creating a protected gallery. It's not exactly what I was hoping to accomplish, but it'll work.

    Thanks again!
