- E-mail notifications can be sent to selected users notifying them when new pictures are available.
Targeted for Internet Explorer, but a limited version can be used with any browser. There is also some limited support for small screen browsers such as pocket Internet Explorer used in Windows CE/ Pocket PC operating systems.
