If you see a photo that you would like to know more about or add information to,  please contact the album Owner [email], click on their name and it should open your email program with their address already filled in.

If you would like to add your own Album the following is the basic information on how to create one and manage it.

Register First

On the main Gallery 3 page click on "[register]" and follow the instructions when the new registration window opens.

Note: Some browsers may load a new window in the background or a POP UP blocker may deny it, so look around if it doesn't appear and /or disable your POP UP blocker.

Logging In

When you ran the [register] , you specified a user name and created a password. Now it's time to use it! On the main Gallery page, click "[login]" Using the username and your password during registration, login to the Gallery! You now have full User privileges of the Album you will create.

Creating Albums

Creating albums is extremely simple, just click "[new album]". The new album is created. You should see the message "Hey! Add some photos" However, before adding photos, it's usually a good idea to modify some of the album properties, such as title, description, and name.  If you want more than one album create a nested sub-album, see Edit Album Properties below.  This will help to keep the main page shorter.

Go back to the main Gallery 3 page by clicking the link in the top right by the up arrow. You should see the new album on the main page. To edit the title of the new album, click "[edit title]" by the current title (for new albums, it defaults to "Untitled"). To edit the description, do the same thing by clicking on "[edit description]". Finally, rename the album. Click on the link in the sentence "Hey! Rename this album so that the URL is not so generic". Once you've done this, you're ready to add photos.

Adding Photos

When you open your album there is a box in the upper right hand corner that says  << admin options >>  click on that and a drop down menu will appear. Click on 'add photos' and a window should pop up.  Some browsers will hide  this in the background and you may have to minimize your browser window to see it. 

You can now browse your computer and upload photos, adding an optional caption with each image. You can also change the number of file upload boxes displayed by using the select box.  Click "Upload Now"  and you're on your way.  Try to remember the folks on dial-up modems and keep image file size reasonable, around 150-300 Kb will display a good quality 800 x 600 JPEG image.  There is a 1024 Kb limit on individual images.
