Web based photo albums

[Zen]

On Photobucket it worked fine the first time.
When I tried to upload more their was no tab with that option, I read their help section about four times.

I'll look again

You could always try the google version.

Go to the google homepage & create an account.
They have a free programme called Picasa. From there you can organise the photos on your computer & create web albums.
I've been fiddling around with the programme for a few days & it seems to doing the job.
Best of all - it has a 1Gb of free storage.

Zencentury. OK step by step.

Log into Photobucket.

When the page comes up you should have a main album. If there isn't an album, you need to create one. This should come up as "Main Album". You can then make sub-albums by typing in the new sub-album title (e.g. I have a lot of snakes as pets so would use Pythons 2007, Boas 2007 etc.).

To put pics in your chosen album, at the top right hand corner of the page you will see a box marked "Upload to: (whatever your chosen album is called).

Under that there are 3 little boxes with "browse" at the end of them. Click on browse and choose whichever path on your computer your pics are stored on. Select the pic you want to upload and click "Open". The path will show in the little box. Move to the next box and do the same. Once you have selected the pics click "Upload"...and be patient. It does take a few minutes depending on internet traffic.

If you need to upload more than 3 pics there is a facility at the bottom of the box which says "Add more". This brings up about 10 browse boxes.

To post your pics on the forum just click once on the URL link and it will automatically copy your pic. Go back to the forum and click the "Insert Image" box. Delete the HTTP:// that comes up automatically and just put the cursor in the box and right-click the mouse button and select "Paste". The URL of your pic will be inserted. Then click "OK" and your pic will show as the URL. When you've finished posting your pics, just click "Submit Reply" as normal and your pics will show on your post.

Hope this helps. If you get stuck, just yell.
