High all, I have tried to start an album twice on my profile, but both times cannot for the life of me figure out how to import pics to add to the one I want to keep, and I also cannot figure oout how to delete the other pirture-less album. Nothing comes up when I click on the album to allow me to browse my pics on my computer, and it is frustrating the hell outta me. Can anyone please help me with this probably elementaruy problem I am having on here????

I had no problem changing my avatar to one of the pics that will hopefully, eventually find itz way into my album on my profile. So, why is it so difficult to add pics to our albums, or is it just me? I'm not a computer whiz, just a growing whiz! lol...

As a member, you can create Albums of images that are linked to your public profile. Albums can be created by visiting the User Control Panel, and clicking on the 'Pictures & Albums' link, and then clicking on 'Add Album'.
Each album can have a title ('Joe's Holiday to Nepal'), a description ('A bunch of photos from my recent adventure') and can be of three different types: Public, Private or Profile.

  • Public albums can be viewed by anyone
  • Private albums can only be viewed by site staff (moderators, administrators) and your Friends and Contacts (info)
  • Profile albums are viewable only by you. However, you can use the images to customize your public profile (info)
How do I upload pictures?
Once you've created an album you can upload images to it. Simply view the album and click on 'Upload Pictures'.
You'll have the option to give each picture a caption, and to set one image as the Album cover, which will be displayed on the public profile. To delete an album or edit the title, description or album type, click on 'Edit Album'. To delete an image, or to edit a caption or change the album cover, click on 'Edit Pictures'.
All members who have access to your album images can comment on them, in a similar way to Visitor Messages (more info). You can delete any image comments from your albums, and report inappropriate messages to moderators.
When you have uploaded a picture, you can place it in your posts by using the BB code text that is displayed below the image when you view it at full size.

How do I attach a file to a post?
To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'. To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.
On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.
To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
How do I add an image to a post? If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the 'Attachment Icon' and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.
To include an image that is not uploaded as an attachment and is located on another website, you can do so by copying the full URL to the image, (not the page on which the image is located), and either pressing the 'Insert Image' icon or by typing
after it, ensuring that you do not have any spaces before or after the URL of the image. You can insert pictures from your albums (?) in this way too.

Well, I tried that 1st part, but never saw anything that was close to Pictures and ALbums Link, so again, I came up with no results. I'm dying to show off my buddin' ladies, almost three weeks into flowering, just stackin' up and bulkin' up, just as perdy as can be.... It should totally be so much easier to do this. Anyone know of a "computers for stoned dummies" approach to putting pictures from my computer that I easily uploaded from my camera's memory card to my hard drive onto a new album so I can show off my buddin' ladies, three weeks into flowering, just as happy and perdy as can be?????

I've never actually used the Albums feature; I have just always posted the pix in a thread and the next time you post any pix, the previous pix that you posted will be there so you can add of them to the current post too, if needed.
