Title: Adding pictures to Gallery- help
Post by: gamer Mac on January 22, 2009, 10:59:35 AM

Gents
   I am looking for some help in adding pictures to my LAF gallery. I can’t seem to find a suitable category for my photos and they keep trying to go to the armoured car category. What am I doing wrong? I have posted a few pictures but only two have appeared in my own gallery.
I have had a look at the help menu and through some of the other post on this board but I can’t find anything.
Can someone explain why/how I am being stupid.
Thanks in advance.

I start by choosing 'Gallery'
Then [My Gallery]

I then choose the sub-gallery I want to add the pics to (previously created)

And at the bottom theres a link to 'Bulk Add Pictures' (adds up to 5 at a time) or Add a picture.

Works for me....  :)

Argonor
when you say "previously created" do you mean by you?
There arn't many choices if everyone does it that way.

You need to go to "My Gallery" and at the bottom of the page is the option to add a "sub gallery" or jsut upload from there to your own gallery.

Does that help?

Try this and see if it helps...

From Gallery go to My Gallery and then click on Add Category in the Admin Panel section.


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/2.jpg)
From there you can name your new gallery, and give a brief description. Click on Add Category.


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/3.jpg)
Now your new gallery shows up in your list of galleries. Click on it.


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/4.jpg)
From here you now have the option to add pictures to the gallery. Click on Add a Picture or Bulk Add Pictures.


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/5.jpg)
From this screen you can now upload your picture, and give it a name and description.


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/6.jpg)
Now we can see there is one picture listed in the new gallery...


(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y40/Plynkes/Gallery%20How%20To/7.jpg)
And clicking back on the gallery we get the thumbnail.

And here's the actual pic.

Hope that helps a bit.
