Click on "Add an Album"
Give your Photo Album a name and click "Submit", e.g. "Year 7 History Excursion"
Select the Category checkboxes that apply to this Album, if an appropriate category is not there, leave this blank for now, once you have finished you can use the instructions to add a category.
Next click on "Edit Comment" and add a comment about this gallery, this is a short (optional) sentence that describes the gallery, e.g. "Our recent excursion was a big success, here are the pictures to prove it"
Next click on the "Add Pictures" button, there are two links but they both do the same thing.
A list of folders will come up, find the one which is most suitable to your gallery. If you need to create a folder please follow these instructions first.
Once you have found the folder scroll to the bottom of the screen and use the "Browse..." button to find the first image on your computer, then click "Upload"
It might take a while for the picture to send, but once it is finished you can use the "Browse..." button to select and upload the next image.
Once you have finished use the check boxes to select the images which you have uploaded, or use the "Select All" button to select all the pictures in the directory, then click the "Save" button.
Your gallery has now been created, read the next lot of instructions to see how to add it to the website.
