After you sign in, menus fill in with shortcuts. This page is a plain-language map to those same screens, including Album page & viewer and related topics.

Logged-in menu overview
After sign-in, the main menu typically includes Create Album, Create Folder, Global Settings, Link Album, Search, Tools, Edit Home Page, Personalize Home Page, optional Change Header & Footer (Power Premium), and Account & Billing. Inside a folder you also get Edit Folder and Personalize Folder for that folder’s listing and style.

Tools
Tools is the hub for account-wide utilities. Open it from the home menu, from Account & Billing, or tools.jsp.

Prints on all albums — turn print ordering on or off for every album in one background pass. Guests may order from Hidden albums when Prints is on and they can view the album; Personal albums stay owner-only for guest ordering. You can still change any album in Edit Album.
Default album template — starting options for every new album you create.
Global Settings — account-wide defaults for albums, photos, navigation, downloads, and more (same page as the home-menu Global Settings link).
Address book — contacts for invitations and Email Album.
Download your files — Premium and higher: pull every Original to your computer.
Print order history, print cart, and Prints & pricing — past orders, checkout, and the live catalog.

Account Settings (name, email, password) stays on Account & Billing, not under Tools.

Let us create your first album
“Let us create your first album” on the getting-started panel is for members who want setup help instead of stepping through Create Album themselves.

Folders, home & personalization
Edit Folder changes folder title, description, dates, URL slug, and security the same way albums use Edit Album. Personalize Folder styles that folder’s listing. Home-level content still uses Edit Home Page and Personalize Home Page when you are not inside a folder.

Header, footer & account hub
Change Header & Footer is the Header & Footer editor (Power Premium); see Account & Membership → Changing Header & Footer. Account & Billing is the hub for plans, billing, storage, and Account Settings (name, email, password). Address book, downloads, Global Settings, and Prints utilities live under Tools.

Packages, upgrade & Link Album
Compare membership tiers from Account & Billing or the public packages page. The printable check/money order flow is linked from billing help. The full Link Album workflow is described under Linking Albums.

Status banners & contact
If the trial or subscription has ended, maintenance is scheduled, or the account is disabled, the home and album templates show a blue notice with links to sign in again, open Account & Billing, or reach support. A cookie warning may appear if the browser blocks cookies.

Design color preview
Personalization can open a design preview window: it renders sample thumbnail and enlarge rows with your colors, fonts, borders, and table backgrounds so you can judge contrast before saving. It does not change live albums until you submit the main design form.
