4. Adding Pictures
Click the Upload Photos button. A window will pop up containing your photos. In this case however, I am viewing my POTCO Screenshots folder.

5. Uploading
Once you have selected a picture, click Open or press Enter to start uploading the picture.
HINT: You can hold SHIFT and select multiple pictures to be uploaded at the same time. Once the bar has reached 100%, hit Save Album, or, if you want to upload more pictures, repeat step 4.

7. Photo Controls
Your photo will appear, along with various options. From here, you can select whether this will be the cover photo for the album, Comment, add a description, view full size, delete, or report the photo. Captain Redhorn, William Sunshot and Isaiah Ropeswine are the Album Mods here on Pirates Forums, and they can help you if need be with an image.
