Please note that the Gold Account free period will be ending on April 30th May 31st 2008*.  Don't worry you can still enjoy my Picturetown by choosing one of the following options.

Keep enjoying your Gold account.
After April 30th May 31st 2008* there is a monthly fee of $2.99 on Gold Accounts with storage up to 20GB.
Payment is available through one of the following credit cards:
MASTER CARD, VISA, AMEX
Current Gold Account members will be contacted shortly regarding payment details.

What if I want to downgrade to a Free Account?
If you would like to downgrade to a Free Account, first please be sure your account is currently using less than 2GB of storage. If you currently have more than 2GB of photos you will need to remove those photos before proceeding. You can use my Picturetown’s download feature to save your photos locally to your PC.

Once your account is using less than 2GB of storage, while logged in to your account click the Settings link from the upper right-hand corner of the site. Within the "My Account" tab change your "Account type" to "Free Account (2 GB)".

* Please be informed the Gold Account free period has been extended to May 31st 2008.
