icloud photo album to photobox. How?

Hi. I hope somebody can help me. Maybe it's my age but I am finding iCloud very frustrating.

Anyway, Apple told me a year ago, that all my issues were because I didn't have a very fast internet connection. Now I have. Hooray!!

So I've created an album in Photos on my MacBook Air, which took me a while. I have all the photos in the right order I wish to see them etc but now I would like to access them from the Photobox website, so that I can have that album printed. Try as I might, I cannot see where these photos are, when Photobox asks me to Get Photos From My Computer.

I hope somebody can point me in the right direction. Many thanks.

The mos basic way is to select the photos in Photos and export (file menu ==> export) them to a desktop folder and use from there - if you are using Safari to upload to PhotoBox then you can use the media browser (in the upload window on the left near the bottom of the source list Media ==> Photos ==> Photos)

HI and thank you LarryHN

I have copied and pasted to my desktop and managed to get them on Photobox that way. So thank you. That has helped.

Just for future reference, is there a way of selecting photos from an album ICloud directly or can this not be done?

Many thanks

Copy and paste does not give you a high quality image - your should export or use the media browser as suggested

If you want to access iCloud Photo Library (I'm guessing that is what you mean as there are many iCloud photo services) you can directly access photos in ICPL using a web browser to access iCloud.com
