Help please! Would like to upload an album... I would like to add an album to my profile. Everytime I post pics of my girl I have to copy the link from photobucket. I would like to know how to do this without the link. Also when I click on the "add an album" do I just copy and paste the links, or the actual pics? Sorry to be so computer UN-savy! :p Thanks for the help! :) |
You have to use the photos that are saved on your computer. Do you still have them before you uploaded them to Photobucket? If not, in Photobucket, open the photo, right click with your mouse and choose Save Image As and name it and save it to your desktop. You can now use that photo to upload onto YT. |
Thank you for your reply. The only thing is I know what you are saying and I have been trying that. It always tells me it was unsucessful. This is so frustrating! lol |
Sorry, it keeps saying it's not a valid image file when I'm trying to upload an avatar pic. I go to browse and select the image from my computer and hit save changes, but then I get that msg and nothing. |
It could be because your image is too large. Avatar pictures for non-donating members have to be 75 pixels at their widest measurement. Do you have software to shrink pictures? If not, you can post a picture here, and I'd be happy to size it for you. |
Wow Alaskayorkie, thank you so much! You are full of great advice and help! :) I have Irfanview and did try resizing it earlier and that didn't seem to help either. :eek: Can I post the link from photobucket? Also if you resize it how will I get it back and to my avatar? I really am not computer savy in the least as I'm sure you can tell! :rolleyes: |
If you are using Irfanview, are you resizing then saving the image? I keep a separate folder in my Pictures folder, I name it YorkieTalk, and when I resize a picture for uploading to YT I save the resized image to the YorkieTalk folder. But, uploading to an album, if you don't resize the pic YT will resize it. What format is your image in? All mine are Jpgs. |
This link has some helpful information on creating an album on Yorkietalk. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ake-album.html |

Beamers mom thank you. Yes I am saving them to my computer under the save as. Mine are jpg as well. I am sorry this has to be so complicated for me. When I go to the part where i can add album it asks for me to title it, then public, profile, etc at the bottom. In between title and the setting at the bottom there is a place for description? Is that where I'm suppose to be adding my pics? If so, can I grab the code from photobucket? Then of course photobucket gives 4 codes!! Haha what to do?! :rolleyes: This is terrible, I'm sorry for frustrating all of you if i am. I do appreciate you all taking the time to help out a computer naive person! :p |

After you have selected the type of album you want, and a title, it will take you to another page where you can upload pictures from your computer. You can upload three pictures at a time. You can rename your pictures and save them. The first picture is automatically chosen as the default picture for the album cover, but you can change this by selecting another picture. You can continue uploading pictures to this album or create new albums. The page where the pictures are uploaded will give you information on how much storage you have available. You cannot link the pictures from photobucket you your album, you have to upload them from your computer. So save the pictures from photobucket to a folder on your computer, and then just upload them from that folder. Here again, is the link. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...ake-album.html |
Okay, sorry for making this harder than it really was. :p Well I got that part figured out, but it tells me it's not a valid image file? I'm just gonna give up, this is making me feel dumb! :cool: Thanks Nancy, Beamers, and AY for helping! Throwing in the towel! |
