How do I upload photos?

One of the perks of being a member, is the ability to add photos to the website. It is quite easy to do so too.

 To start, first make sure you are logged into the site. Once you're logged in, you'll see a new menu on the left hand side, with the option of "Add/Organize Photos". You'll want to click on that link.

Now, you'll get a new page showing off a few different sections. First at the top of the page will be some stats about your account, such as how many images you're allowed, how many you've uploaded, etc. Below that will be "My Images", which will show images you've previously uploaded, so you may delete or edit them. Then finally will be a form for "Add Image".

 In here, you'll be faced with a few basic things needed for the image; the name of the gallery you want it to go into, the image you want to add, and the title you want to give to the image. The gallery option is a nice drop down box, that gives you a listing of all the galleries available, simply click the one that best fits the image you want to add. Next up, click the browse button. Now you'll see a new window that you will use to find the image that you want to add on your computer. Just navigate to where ever you have it stored at, select the image, and hit Ok/Open. Now you should be returned to the submission page. Before you finish up, you have one last, optional, step. If you want, you can add a description to the image, to give extra info not included in the title. Here you also are given some extra controls, much like those in an email, for controlling how the text looks. Again, this is optional, so you don't have to get elaborate with it. When you are happy with how things are, and are ready to upload, simply click the save button (Save) and it will add your photo 

That's really all there is to it.
