You do not do anything in your profile when posting photos.

1-Click on the Photo Gallery above in the date line.
http://www.willysmjeeps.com/v2/modules.php?name=gallery

2-Click on Member's Albums link about 2/3rds the way down the page.
http://www.willysmjeeps.com/v2/modules. ... _album.php

3-Using the arrows at the top of the page to the right of the page numbers go to the last page.

4-Click on "ecurb_1160" below your album photo square.
Album: ecurb_1160
Changed: 01/02/13
Contains: 0 items.
Viewed: 9 times.
http://www.willysmjeeps.com/v2/modules. ... _album.php

5-When you see the wide block with "Hay. Add some photros" in it click on the drop down menu (the small white box with ADMIN in it) at the top right.

6-In that drop down menu click on "Add photos".

7-A separate window will appear entitled "Add Photos"
It will have two small drop down menu windows at the top. The upper block is the one you are concerned with because in it you can select how many photos to load at a time of 1 thru 10. Start out with 5.

You will now see 5 dark boxes with "Choose file" in them and 5 white boxes titled to left as "Caption"

8-When you click on the gray box "Choose file" a new window on your computer will open. Use that window to navigate to the file on your computer that contains the photos you want to load.

9-Click on one photo that you want to load. At the bottom of your file box you will see the choice "Open" or "Open file". Click on it and the photo title will appear to the right of the gray box. Now if you wish the photo to have a caption under it when it is displayed in your album just type the caption you want in the white box.

Then repeat 8 & 9 for the remaining 4 photos.

10-Of the three choices at the bottom I leave mine in the center choice. Now click on the bottom left gray box entitled "Upload Now".

Voila you just loaded 5 photos to your album.

Remember to limit your photo types to JPEGS and a file size of no more than 500K.

Ok let's try the picture method.

These are three of the 15 photos I just loaded to your photo album. The 15 photos represent the 15 steps to load your own photos to your own photo album.

The line in step 3 under my name that start no photos in this album, is not there when I go there, no arrow, no drop down box.

I'm starting to feel really stupid here even with your great 15 step picture program it still don't look the same on my pc as what you are showing,I even signed out and back in again. Its like you have control of my album, not me,sorry for all the troubles but something is not working.

As you can see your album is completely functional. So I would suspect the issue is at your end. Are you logged in on the web site when this happens.

As you can see here on the permissions list for your album you are in all the blocks that I am in plus you are the owner of the album.

Let's see if Ryan can help with this issue.

Be sure he is "logged in" to the web site. If not, he will be recognized as a guest and therefore, not able to change his own photo album.

Just a thought.

Logged in to what web site this one? I'm missing something here but I think we are getting closer.

I just noticed on your pic of the permissions list you have my name listed as Ecurb not ecurb_1160 there is another person on here with the name Ecurb his album is on first page of gallery wonder if that might be the problem? just a thought.

I checked the album permissions and it was assigned to another member Ecurb.

I reassigned it to ecurb_1160.

Evidently we have several members with usernames in a variation of ecurb.

It should work now.

My bad. Can't see the forest for the trees! Glad you are working now.

Nice, solid looking A1 Bruce. The hood numbers are wee bit forward and looks like you used someone's service number for the hood number. Those old 8 digit service numbers go back a ways. The military switched to the SSAN in the early 70's.

Now I get it! Bruce spelled backwards. I was wondering why it was so popular.
