How do I create an album?

[jg rider]

I think I broke Kahr Talk.
I copied some pic from my Photo bucket account and copied them as full size image code. Then I pasted them in my albums. Now all I have is the title album and the image codes. Also I can't delete the album.
What did I do wrong?
I promise not to touch anymore buttons that I'm not familiar with

I wasn't aware you could use external web links for uploading images to an album, jg rider.

I start by clicking to my public profile page (http://kahrtalk.com/member.php?u=9219 for you) and then clicking "Show All Albums".
Then I go to the bottom of the web page and click on "Add Album".

This takes you to a new page where you name (and optionally describe) the album.


Click the "Submit" button and you go to the next page where you click "Click here to upload", and then you can select three photos at a time from your own computer to upload.


Is that how you did it?

Good advice dkmatthews
jgrider,
Try this to edit your album:
Go to your profile page and click on the "Statistics" button, find the album box and click on the "Albums created by ..." link. This takes you to a page with your albums listed on it; under "Album titles" click on the album you want to edit. This will take you to a page that has the album title to the left in a narrow, page wide box. To the right side of that bow should be links that say "Edit Album" and "Edit Pictures". Use the "Edit Abum" link to go to a page where you can delete the album or edit the title, description (you have your image addresses and bb code in this box now. BTW, no bb code in this box please), and viewing permissions. Take appropriate action and hit the "Submit' button.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Greg

UH OH! I knew I broke!
What I did was copy my pics.from my Photo Bucket.com. Then I went to "Show all albums", then "Add album" and then I pasted my pics, then I clicked "Submit". Never saw the upload page, I screwed up!
Now if I click on my albums it shows the title "My body guard" and the image codes for my external web link pics. I can't delete the codes and have a blank album.

I'll never touch strange looking buttons again! Please don't give me a time out!

Thanks, dkmatthews, Greg. Greg your walk through worked. I would have never figured it out. I don't remember reading any tutorials about "Posting albums for dummies" or for deleting them.
I went to where computer dummies should fear to go.

Yeah, well . . . stick to checkering forestraps or something else that's easy.

Just kidding . . .

Everyone has their own talents or skills and I am more jealous of your checking skills than the ease with which most computer things work for me.

Thanks for the kind words. I feel much better now.
My head is starting to swell.
Now, to go back and figure this thing out
