Good question.

I installed Win7 Ultimate x64 last night and installed Webshots just now. Copied the Webshots Data file from XP into the same file in Win7 and found that I had 8813 Webshots photos. LOL.

So far seems to work fine.

Thank You

After initiating this I found that could install only by registering as a new user. Then it worked fine - was able to 'move' albums (pics) from XP to Win 7.

To bad their FAQs don't list Win 7 as a supported platform ... and it has always (last 8 years) been a problem that Webshots will only accept emails from 'Premium Members'.
