Shorter Gallery Link


Hi. I'm making some name cards and my want to put the link to my gallery on my "non-business" card, but it's really too long to fit confortably on it. I remember seeing a long time ago that one could obtaina shorter link somewhere, but don't remember where. Does anyone know? Thanks!

  Hi Corinne. Thanks for the website! But unfortunately, when I got my tiny url link, it didn't work. At one point a box popped up asking me if I wanted to allow access to my clipboard, which they said would allow someone to access anything that I'd put on my clipboard recently. Though I didn't see a great threat, I didn't see any reason why they'd need to be able to that if I had the link. So, I said no. They then gave me a link. Would this be a reason why it doesn't work? Confusing me, though!

  okay, figured it out!

Go to your member center > Member info > and scroll down to Nickname. That's it, just enter your nickname. I used my first name (but what's the chance someone else on here used Cherylann as their nickname?). 'Susan' might already be taken.

The nickname section tells you what the address will be to give to your friends!

  Thanks dear Cherylann! How can anyone as busy as you be so on top of things?

  Sorry, Susan....I misread your question. I thought you wanted to shorten "links" which is why I gave you the one I did. Glad Cheryann read your question better than I did! :)

  No, you were right, I did. But for some reason the shortened link I got didn't work. But no problem, Cherylann's solution worked.
