F.A.Q. - FTP Information

Q. What is FTP?
A. FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. FTP simply allows Internet users to move files from one computer to another. Using FTP is just like using the web; you need a software program (called an FTP client program) that lets you connect to FTP hosts (just as a web browser allows you to connect to http hosts).

Q. Do I need to use an FTP Program?
A. PhotoManager utilizes an FTP type file transfer to send your files to the web. We made it easy for the photographer to handle the uploading and manipulation of photographs on our site so photographers can do what they like doing best, taking pictures. No need for an FTP Program.

However, if you are doing your own site design, you will need an FTP program. There are many FTP client programs and any will work, but we recommend CuteFTP for PC's. CuteFTP is made by GlobalSCAPE.
