When it comes to the photos you share, Facebook is going big. The changes, which start gradually rolling out today to all users, truly give the social network more of a photo album feel.

When you click "Photos" at the top of your timeline, you'll see larger pictures "that fill up the page," wrote Emily Grewal, a Facebook product manager, in a posting.

You can also use the menu to look for photos you're tagged in, photos you've shared as well as albums you've created.

Friends can "like" and comment all from that one page. 

"With your Facebook photos all in one section, it's simple to show friends your favorites," Grewal wrote. "Click the star button to make important photos stand out" and appear bigger.
