[nabs-l] Facebook question regarding photo albums

Hello,
I've done it before, but I haven't done it since the site change. I
believe Cindy said it all though, much more clearly than I could have
explained it myself. But since the site has become less accessible,
I'm not sure how this would work now. I never bothered with captions
though because when it came time to save them, they weren't visible
for some reason. Any idea about that?
