Photo hosting
There is probably a simple answer to this.... I am after a free photo- sharing website that allows you to restrict access to photos to a group of people.

Firefox V29
Just updated from V28 to 29 and this is not just a routine bug fix. The toolbars are different but it does seem a bit quicker. Biggest bug bear for me is the Favorites Icon is now "Add to Favorites" and it doesn't prompt you which folder to save them to. The new Menu button is useful though. Any other observations MSE'ers?

Would this be due to synchronization with the web version and this taking preference? In a related issue after using CCleaner the Chrome browser doesn't recognise all the settings and a few…
