Well after only 3 weeks online freshtouringorigination.com has become quite a busy website. Already we have 29 albums and over 290 pictures from all the globe.
With over 58,000 hits so far this is one very 'looked at' website. There are some very cool FTO's out there! So if you haven't already go register or login and add your own album to the website now!
Here are some quick tips to help get you started...
1. Once you've registered with a working email address you'll get an activation link in the mail. Click on that and your ready to create your album.
2. First thing you need to do is create a new album. Once you've logged in you'll use the sidebar feature for everything you need to do. This will slide out from the left of the screen when you click on the 'Sidebar' link in the top right-hand corner of the site or the icon on the top left.
From there you'll see 'Add Album'. Click on that and from there fill in all your details.
3. Once that is done you can then start adding your pictures. There are several ways to do this but the basic way is to open the sidebar and click 'Add Items'. Once you've done that you should be able follow along with the instructions fairly easily. If you want you can install a program called Gallery Remote on your PC, login from the PC and upload all your pics with the software program. Very cool idea.

Add as many pictures to your album as you like. Just make sure they are of your car only and it has to be an FTO, obviously. Also if I could request no pretty girls posing with your car please. The FTO doesn't doesn't need a hot chic to draw attention to it like all the other cars out there do. Very Happy
4.
Choosing your Album Cover: For every picture in your gallery there is a dropdown box below it with a few options. Find your favorite pic, click on the dropdown box and select 'Make Highlight'. This will now be the cover of your album.
There are loads more features in the gallery so have a play with it and if you need anymore info please don't hesitate to contact me via
ftogallery@gmail.com or simply reply to this thread.
Long Live the FTO!
Cheers
Spud
ps. once you create your album you'll have your very own weblink like this...

For example mine is this...

You can add that to your own website, profile signature etc.

What I'll do is create links on the front page to all the other good FTO galleries out there. The more the merrier I say.

First hit "register" to create an account, then click the activate link in the email you were sent. After that you can now login. You'll want to press the sidebar button to so you can get some options up, then add an album and input your details. After the album is added you'll need to add items, i found using the "applet" section to be the easiest for uploading pictures.
It's a little complex

You need to add/create an Album first, then you can upload all your pictures into that.
Go to the first post in this thread for a quick start guide on how to do all this.

No worries FTO-101
Here's how to select one of your picture for the Album cover...
For every picture in your gallery there is a dropdown box below it with a few options. Find your favorite pic, click on the dropdown box and select 'Make Highlight'. This will now be the cover of your album.
You can also add comments to other people's albums or individual pictures. Always check the View Comments section as well to see if anyone has left you a comment. It's one of those little icons in the top left of the page.
