Note:

  1. Submitting your video album to the Ulead Gallery and submitting to the Summertime Video Contest are the same thing. You do not have to submit your album in two places.
  2. Once you submit your video album to the Gallery and Contest, your video will be available for viewing by anyone who comes to the Gallery. Your other Mediashare albums, videos, and photos can still be private using custom security settings in the SECURITY feature.
