road, access albums stored online and share snaps with family and friends.

The service will be fully integrated with Elements 7 and with Adobe's recently launched online photo editing suite, Photoshop Express, which will be rebranded as Photoshop.com on both web and mobile.

Adobe has taken its time to react to the mobile photography trend, with rivals such as Yahoo's Flickr and Google's Picasa long offering means to upload and view your photos from a mobile device - and not only Windows Mobile devices, either.

However, Adobe will allow owners of other handsets, such as the iPhone and BlackBerry Pearl, to upload photos to their Photoshop.com account with the third-party ShoZu software.

In a further bid to play catch-up with its rivals, Photoshop.com will boost the amount of free storage available to users to 5GB. Those paying for the premium Plus membership will receive 20GB.
