Tutorial for the new photo album feature!

[JessicaS]

Here is a basic tutorial to help you create a photo album.

The Album feature is currently only available to those with 50 posts and 60 days of membership.

Supporting members have larger album options.

To get started creating an album click on your user Control Panel.



Then click on "Pictures and Albums"


Then choose the "add album" option.




Here you will name and describe your album and choose privacy settings.



Choose the pictures you would like to upload from your computer.





You can resize your pictures from your computer or on an image hosting site.





It is pretty simple to create an album but let me know if there are further questions.

Awesome! Thank you!

Cool!!!!!

I am sure this is a reeeeeeally stupid question, but could we link to the album in our siggy? My guess is no, but I figured I'd ask. If not, can we mention an album (unlinked) in our siggy?

Thanks!

The software isn't going to enable links in the signature feature, but you are welcome to place text in your signature to let folks know to check out your pictures

can we mention an album (unlinked) in our siggy?

Yes

[KirstenMary]

Awesome! Thank you!

We've also adding some new smileys to let people know to check out your photo album:



(or that you're a photographer, too, I guess)

Oh, wish I had some siggies left, I'd use that album one.
I hope I start seeing more around, I would click on profiles to see albums, but only if I knew they have an album.

Great feature and awesome tutorial!

Is it possible to have a "View Album" note under a user name. For instance, when I click on a person's user name on the left side, a box pops up giving me choices: "VIew public profile" "Send Private Message" "Send email" "Find more posts"....

Is is possible to add "View album"?

We can't actually add something to the drop down without some fancy tricks

[PuppyFluffer]

If anyone has faince tricks....it would be you! Or maybe that every skilled CM!

Oh well, it was worth the asking!

It might be in a future update. I am not sure.
