After uploading files, you can then rotate/flip, hide, highlight, edit text, reorder, etc. by using the drop-down below each photo.
As a last step in album creation, select "properties" from the main drop-down menu up top and change the Album Title to something other than "Untitled". Please make it descriptive! Albums left "Untitled" may be deleted without warning.
Also, it is recommended to rename your album to something other than "Album##". Again, please make it descriptive. Note: The album name appears in the link/URL to your album
Some basic rules/guidelines for using the gallery
Please do not post any copyrighted, pornographic or otherwise offensive pictures or images.
Please create one main album for yourself.
Create any additional albums as "nested albums" within your main album.
Any albums without owners and/or titles (e.g. those labeled as "untitled") may be deleted at any time. This especially applies to albums in the "Member Photos" album.
One last tidbit of information... The main drop-down in the upper-right corner has some pretty useful functions... You can edit the properties of your albums, you can set the permissions to allow other users to upload/edit files in your album. Play with it, it's not hard to figure out.
If you have any questions, please feel free to post them here. This thread is intended to be an FAQ, so in the spirit of trying to keep it clean, I'll add your questions (and corresponding answers) to the post below this one and then probably delete your post.

Album name and album title are two different things:
The name of the album is the directory name on the server and the name that appears in the URL.
The title of the album is what shows up on the web page.
How do you delete an album?
yes I am guilty of album 38 I believe, containing 0 items, but I can not find a 'delete album' among the choices............
Go that way, really fast.
If something gets in your way, turn.

Never argue with idiots. They will bring you down to their level, then overwhelm you with their experience.
