Abstract

Techniques to allow for ease of navigation within a photo browsing interface of a social networking system. In one embodiment, designations of a first image and a second image for sharing are received from within at least one of a single-image view and a camera view. Based on the designations, the first image and the second image are added to a communication. The designations may be based on a user selection of an option provided by an interface of a mobile device. The first image and the second image may be received from within a social networking application or from within a dedicated camera application.
