Hi, talk about fspot being complicated, plus it wont add gallery to FB, 
you have to do that yourself and then use the uploader to upload to the 
already added gallery. Not easy. :(

I will give that a try now, see how I get on. My problem is, I have a 
Facebook profile, attached to that is a Group, then I have a Facebook 
Page, all for different things. I know, making things complicatged, but 
I only added them as I got more used to Facebook, and its was too late 
to change everything.

John.
