If you haven't tried out our premium account offerings over the years, you may not know what you've been missing. Those who have upgraded could probably attest to how great it feels to have more themes to choose from, extra customization options (CSS), and even higher upload limits. These were just some of the benefits of going premium.

Were?

Yes, were. As of today, everyone can experience this exquisite joy for themselves. Things that were once restricted only to premium account holders are now available to all Multiply members. And unlimited photos, music... and yes, even video uploads are now free for all!

If you were already a premium user when we made this change... thank you! It's only through the support of people like you that we were able to get to the point where a change like this would even be possible. We're sure you appreciate the fact that more people will now be getting more out of Multiply.

As our way of saying "thank you" to our premium users, you won't ever have to see advertising on Multiply, a benefit you may have already gotten used to. Additionally, you still have the ability to customize the right sidebar of your personal site... a great place for a short bio, a list of links (or "blogroll"), or other extra customizations. And, of course, you'll continue receiving discounts when you order photo prints.

In short, we hope this decision means positive things to as many users as possible, and makes it even easier to share your life with those you know.

You can read our formal press release here.

As promised, we've upgraded the site with a few of our most highly-requested features, including video, music and custom themes! The highlights:

Video
This has been one of our most requested features since Multiply went live, and now it's here. Finally, an easy way to share videos on-line! Check out the Video tab on your site.

Music sharing
Now you can upload music and other audio files to your Multiply site. If you're a musician, sharing your songs with your entire network is a great way to get people listening to your stuff and talking about it. Check out the Music tab on your site.

Themes
Everyone wants to make their home page look a little different and stand out from the rest. Now you don't have to be a web designer to do it. Everyone can select from a number of custom color schemes to personalize their Multiply site! Check it out on the Settings page.

Lighter, easier look-and-feel
We've streamlined Multiply's look to make pages easier on the eyes and faster to load. Plus we've made searching easier by adding a "search" box at the top of every page. There's also an "on-line" indicator on every user's site now, so you can see if someone's currently on-line, or when they last visited Multiply.

No more storage limits
Now there's no need to worry about how close you're getting to the storage limit, because there isn't one. We've switched to a different model - one that will allow you to continue to upload plenty of content, while allowing us to keep our monthly bandwidth costs consistent. Every month, you can upload as many as 150 photos - far more than the average Multiply user shares in a month - and 20 songs (or audio files), with a chance to significantly increase those numbers, as well as the amount of video you can upload. We'll explain in just a moment. And you can continue sharing as many journals, calendar events, reviews, marketplace listings or links as you want. Most importantly, there is no overall limit to the amount of stuff you can share on your Multiply site.

Gold and Platinum accounts
We've said it's "coming soon" for quite a while, and now it's finally here. Our brand new subscription service includes a host of great features! The classic Multiply service - the same things you've been doing since we first went live - will continue to be free of charge. Gold and Platinum accounts will let you get A LOT MORE out of Multiply. Here are the details...
