During peak periods, e-hollahs may take hours to be processed and sent. 

What is Hollah Up?
Hollah members may upload image and sound files to use in e-hollahs and soulvites.
The uploaded files are available in all e-hollah and soulvite categories whenever the member signs-in. The files are only visible to the uploading member.

How do I upload a file?
First, sign-in. An upload images link, and an upload sound link will appear in the left column of the homepage. Select upload images to upload images, and upload sound 
to upload sound. Then type in the name and location of the file on your hard drive,
floppy disc or CD. You may also use the browse feature to locate the file. 
Press upload. 

What types of files may I upload?
Image files must be in .gif or .jpeg format. Sound files must be .wav or .mid formats.

Are there file size limits?
Yes, the file size limit for image files is 100K. The file size limit for sound files is 50K.

How do I use Hollah Up files?
All uploaded files are available as selections in all the e-hollah and soulvite categories. Select them just as you would any other e-hollah or soulvite image or sound file.

Are my Hollah Up files publicly viewable for selection?
No. The files are viewable for selection by the uploading member, and only upon 
sign-in. The recipients are able to view the image only in the completed e-hollah 
or soulvites.

How do I view my e-hollah or soulvite?
When somebody sends you an e-hollah or soulvite, you will receive an email notifying you of this fact. The email will contain a Web address (URL) that you can click on and, on most email programs, be taken to your Web browser and e-hollah. In some cases, you'll need to copy and paste the entire Web address into your Web browser. Your e-hollah or soulvite will be accessible at that Web address for 20 days.

How do I view animation?
You will need the latest version of Shockwave or Flash (free download)
A button under your e-hollah postcard will tell you which; it will either say Get Shockwave or Get Flash. All you have to do is click on that button and follow the simple directions. It's that easy. If you have problems, check out Viewing Animations.

What are e-hollahs and soulvites?
Hollah.com is all about expressing yourself and sharing thoughts with your friends and family. E-hollahs are electronic greeting cards that enable you to keep in touch with friends and family.  Soulvites are electronic invitations with RSVP service, that enable you to organize gatherings online.  You create the e-hollahs and soulvites by selecting images, words and music that fit the occasion. We notify the recipient, and generate the web page where the recipient can view the e-hollah or soulvite.
