I just added the ability for users to have their very own photo galleries on the site. If you go to the top navigation bar and click on "Forum Navigation" you will see a link to "Photo Gallery"

That will bring you to the gallery menu page, which has a link to all members galleries (ones not set as private by the user) and also is where you will add images to your own gallery.

Simply click on the tab that says "upload" and you can browse your computer for an image to upload to your gallery. The process will automatically resize the images to 800x600 so it will be easily viewable.

Once you upload at least one image to your "default" album, you will then see additional features that get activated. You will be able to manage your own albums, set preferences and control who can see or comment on your pictures from this page. You will also be able to add up to 5 sub-albums to sort and categorize your images if you wish. Each member who has at least one image uploaded will also have a link in your profile page as well on all topics with a link to your photo gallery.

Once you have images in your gallery, when clicking on an image in your gallery it will open in a "hovering" lighbbox that will darken the page in the background and allow you to click through the photos in the gallery.

there are also links on the image view page that will allow you to paste the images into forum posts on this site or any others that you may use such as myspace, facebook or any other site.

There are many more features available, but I think the best way for you to see all of them is to try it out. If anyone has any difficulties, questions, comments or concerns please don't hesitate to let me know.
