{How To} Make an Album, Start Uploading Pics, and Getting a Profie Background!

Pictures are in 2nd post!
Hello, I haven't see any guides about Albums, so I thought that I'd make one and share it with you guys!

Making an Album:

(For members that do NOT have any albums)
1. You will have to go to your profile.
2. Under your Friends List, there should be a button labled "Add New Album". Click that.
3. Give your album a title (something like "My Pics" is fine), a description (optional), and select what kind of album you want it too be.
Here are the album choices:
"Profile"- Used to modify your profile. Can only be seen by you.
"Private"- Can only be seen by you, your friends, and staff members.
"Public"- Anyone can see it.
4. Click "Submit"

There, you have an album! (please scroll down to find out how to upload pictures)

Making an Album:

(For members that already have an album, ONLY)
1. Where it shows your album/s click where it says "Show all albums" under the album/s you already have.
2. It should show you all your albums. Scroll down and on the bottom-left hand side it should say "Add Album". Click that.
3. Give your album a title (something like "My Pics" is fine), a description (optional), and select what kind of album you want it too be.
Here are the album choices:
"Profile"- Used to modify your profile. Can only be seen by you.
"Private"- Can only be seen by you, your friends, and staff members.
"Public"- Anyone can see it.
4. Click "Submit"

There, you have an album! (please scroll down to find out how to upload pictures)

Uploading Pictures:

1. Go to your profile.
2. Click on the album you want to upload to.
3. If this is your first time uploading pictures, click "Click here to upload pictures!". If it is not your first time, click "Upload Pictures" towards the top-left.
4. Click the "Browse" button to select pictures from your computer to upload. You may upload 3 at a time.
5. Click "Upload Pictures"
6. Click "Save Changes". Also, while you are on this page you can select that picture as your album cover, choose to move it to a different album, give it a description, or to delete it.

There, you have uploaded a picture!

Getting a Profile Background:

1. Where it shows your album/s click where it says "Show all albums" under the album/s you already have.
2. It should show you all your albums. Scroll down and on the bottom-left hand side it should say "Add Album". Click that.
3. Give your album a title (something like "My Pics" is fine), a description (optional), and select "PROFILE" album!
4. Click "Submit"
5. Upload the background/s you want to use (see Uploading Pictures, above)
6. Go to your profile.
7. Click "Customize Profile" (located under your reps/stars on your profile)
8. Click the blue/green button with a landscape/hills on it.
9. Select a picture.
10. Play around with the fonts, font colors, borders, headers, footers, ect...
11. Click "Save Changes" at the bottom.

Ta da! Now you should have a profile background!

Other:

I will add how to edit albums, delete albums, and how to delete pics later!
PICTURES will also be added to make it easier to explain!

If you have any other questions, please ask! I'll try my best to help!

If this is your first album, you will see "Add Album", click it. If it's not your first, you will see "Show All Albums", click that.



Click "Add Album" at the bottom. It is always in that spot, if you don't see it, your profile background might be hiding it.



Give your album a title, description, set the type, and click "Submit" when you're done.



Click "Upload Pictures" or "Click here to upload pictures!".



Upload the picture from your computer.



Give it a description and click "Save Changes" when you're done. While you are here, you can also choose to delete the picture, move it to a different album, or set it as the album's cover.



Click "Upload Pictures" to add more.

Can you help m get a picture in my siggy?
It wont work.
Like it will show up were you click "Browse"
then open it up and it will only show up in the little box by the "browse"
button. it wont show up in the siggy.

Does that make any sense?
