How do I add a description or enable comments to my photosynth?
Probably a painfully obvious thing that I've skipped in the instructions or whatever, but - I've seen many synths, particularly the example/top ones that have a detailed description of the scene by the creator on the right-hand side of the page, and viewer comments below the synth and the description. I can't find any way of adding/enabling these, it's not in the synth application, I'm not asked for these at any part of the process, and I can't see an appropriate button/link/etc anywhere on the page for the completed synth or in my profile etcetera.
Before the inevitable questions: XP SP2 (SP3 is waiting to happen once I've got a full backup in the can), IE7 with all updates I know of, 1Gb RAM, Pentium-M, Intel 945 graphics. Tagging it and the rest of the synth process has worked ok.

Yes, as Luke writes, the synth description, tags and comments are all editable on the web page, when you're viewing the synth, though you have to be signed in. (We also added a tags field to the synther itself to encourage people to add tags right away, but we didn't do this for synth description.) You can comment on anyone's synth when you're signed in, but only the synth's author can add/remove tags and edit the description. For the time being at least we want all text to be attributable to a user, so we're not allowing anonymous comments.
I’m pretty sure this'll sort you out

Inappropriate?Go to:
http://photosynth.net/Default.aspx
click on "Sign in" (it's a the top left and it's damn hard to see)
After that you should see all you synths.
Now you can delete synth, edit your profile etc.
comments are always activated, but you need to be logged in in order to write comments.

Inappropriate?Yes, sorry guys, I think I was seriously misunderstanding the signing-in process and the like. For one thing, this is the first time I've signed in with my actual ID because I check my MSN hotmail like never - only just twigged MSN was showing a "new mail" icon. (No-one I actually talk to uses that address!). Also assuming (understandably!?) that signing in to Photosynth: The Application signs you in to the whole service and website.
I'll see if it works now! Got a couple I need to delete, for starters...
I’m completely "Duhhhhhh"

Also, the "Sign in" is at the top RIGHT for me. Don't know if that's just a typo, or a significant difference...? Plus the first line of my description looks to overwrite the date, synthyness and number-of-views line (so, I'll just have to put in a blank one each time, no worries).
Other than that it's all working excellently, so many thanks :-) -
Inappropriate?I see the edit button where I think the description of my synth will be.
I clicked on it and got as poetic as possible and then... ¿How do I save it?
I see no save, nor “ok” nor “accept”
What should I do?
Thank you.
PS
Secial thanks to Greg Pascale for the app.
Great Work.
I’m hoping to describe my syth
