We recently completed a release that includes a bunch of new features.

• Show your slideshows offline, when no network connection is present
  Ever want to show a Phanfare slideshow at a party or outdoor event
  where no network connection is present? Now you can with our
  downloadable slideshows. You will notice that the new album and
  image options menu on the web includes a downloadable
  slideshow. This slideshow can be played offline and shows images
  edge-to-edge on your computer. Music and videos are retained, as are
  the Phanfare slideshow controls. Fow now, the slideshow can only be
  downloaded and played on a PC. Mac support is coming very soon.
• New web album layout
  We introduced a new clean album layout that makes starting the
  slideshow easier to find, accommodates larger captions, and
  consolidates all of the features that were previously below the fold
  into one easier-to-see menu on the right. Here are more details on using on
  the new layout.For Phanfare purists who don’t want to lose the screen real estate
  to the new album option menu, you can opt to have album and image
  options appear in a context menu over the imagefor all of your
  albums.Regardless of whether you choose to hide the album option menu, this
  new album view includes a full screen image mode when you click on
  the image; repagination of the thumbs and auto-sizing of the image
  if you resize your browser; better looking next and previous
  buttons; and the ability to add HTML to your captions.
• Bulk download whole albums from the web
  Often requested by all of you, you can now download the entire
  contents of an album, including original images and archival videos,
  as one very big zip file from the web. This option appears on your
  website in that album option menu. You can only download the whole
  album if downloading of originals is on for the album.The ability to download the whole album from the PC client is coming
  soon.
• MyPhanfare gets updated
  Several new improvements to MyPhanfare, including the ability to
  access your Phanfare address book and the ability to play videos
  from within MyPhanfare. As a reminder, MyPhanfare is meant as a lightweight control panel
  for your Phanfare account when using the Windows or Mac organizer is
  not convenient. You can login to MyPhanfare at
  my.phanfare.com.
• We repaired the Christmas lights
  Just in time to put up holiday photos and videos, we fixed the
  Christmas style. Previously the lights on the style were not working
  (no joke). They should display in most browsers now.For a quick summary, here are the release notes.
