I think you can label them (so hover with the mouse) but not caption

we should do a Boxrec Network on there.

A diary would be better as a blog on myspace.... Not sure if there is a function / option on facebook allowing you to do one?!?! Could and probably are wrong though.

You need to create an album 1st
After that is done go into the album itself and u should see the tag 'edit photos'
Hit this and you will see the space for captions and just fill them in

Terry,

Having ventured into both 'world's', I'd advocate myspace over facebook, for the use you intend. By way of exemplar.

Edit: Cheers Dave.
myspace is ok but has kind of been eclipsed by facebook - these things trend anyway so in a year it will all have to be done again on a new .com lol!

facebook has closed networks so only people you want to can see what your doing and your info, its basicaly a way of letting people know what you are doing and keeping in touch with people. Myspace is a bit more open and people put there favorate music and stuff up there. I prefer facebook although have both, facebook is better for proffesional stuff myspace is predominantly a teenage thing.

I've got both (both because of my previouse jobs in fairness)

Facebook is much more interactive IMO
With My Space it is more an advertisement about yourself, takes ages 2 set up a fab page, which can look really good if u do it right

My space used to be an excellent site, it was a great way to promote you work (if you are an unsigned band/recording artists). I know some sites were very proffesionally done, but personally I perfered the less complex cheap sites with just the music.

Then though it would become full of spammers and accounts that didn't showcase much at all. Its becoming a bit pointless.

Facebook is like a free version (at the moment) of Friends reuinted.
