How to create an album?

[sanford]

I've made a number of attempts but after selecting pix from my photo library, have  been unable to move them to my album. Any suggestions?

Before I make a bunch of screenshots from my desktop, do you use a desktop or tablet? Smaller displays sometimes show slightly different user interface so I want to illustrate the format that will best match your use case 

The text description is +Create → Gallery Image → Select Category → Member Albums → Create New Album (name it) → Choose Files (or drag from desktop) → Continue → edit title/description → Finish editing images.

Once you have created an album, future uploads will offer the option to add to existing album (usually the best choice) or create a completely new album.

Thanks, Brad. I use both ipad and desktop Mac, but will try instructions for iPad for now. 

Ive always been interested in other folk’s pix, scenery, etc, in their areas and realize I’ve accumulated a bunch that I could show in return.

I decided to try the iPad again and was able to load a bunch of pix into existing album, but I wasn't offered "continue" after loading... It was grayed out so I couldn't proceed and pix went away.

The process in images. Hope this helps. Let me know if/where you get stuck.

Important! On this step the "Finish editing images" button is in a floating window that may be off-screen at the bottom of a phone or tablet. You may have to scroll down to see it. Sometimes turning your tablet to portrait orientation will bring it into view as well.

Well that's interesting. I just added the album and image shown in the screenshots using an iPad.  I'll dig into the back end and see if I can find a mis-set permission or something...

Update: I see images now in at least one of your albums

Ok... I had success loading pix into my album using Mac desktop, so I'm basically set for now. I'll make another attempt using iPad later on, but right now Ruffy is staring at me... so my real-life will be put on hold while I take him for his walk!👹
