*Setting Up Your Photo Gallery at BP.net!*

[JamminJonah]

Okay it may be tricky for some of you to do this, and lord knows it took me a while to figure all of this stuff out so here is how to set up a gallery...

step 1: Log in (or register if you haven't) then log in under your name and click on Photo Gallery

Step 2: click on Create/Order my albums - this is where you name each sub section of your gallery - For example I have one album for my avatars and misc pics, one for my BP, one for african house snakes, and one for pictures I snag from other sites. To set up a new album click new and enter the name you want the album to be.

Step 3: Click on Upload Picture - this will allow you choose which album you want the picture to appear in (the drop menu) and select the picture from your computer. If you are using windows most pictures are default saved in "My Pictures" so click "browse..." this will open up your computer directories- navigate your way to the picture you wish to upload and double click you should see the directory names in the text box next to "browse..."

Step 4: click upload - this will upload the picture into the album that you chose to upload it into. If you wish to title the pic (appears as a caption under the picture) fill in the title blank before clicking upload. you can always go back and edit your pictures and order/create new albums!

TO EDIT YOUR STUFF: click "my gallery" it will open your albums and you can choose to delete or edit or look at the properties of your albums. This is useful for deleting older or bad pics and also for changing titles of pictures or adding descriptions.

ONCE YOU HAVE SET UP YOUR ALBUMS: you can post pictures in the forums or make pictures your avatar! To learn how to set-up an avatar check this out! : http://www.ball-pythons.net/index.ph...&p=26279#26279

Thanks for the tip, led4urhead. Worked great. Ended up using Paint as someone suggested in that thread. Check out my new pics, I think you'll like them.
