    Default Trouble sending Room of Doom pics...

    I took some new pics of my updated game room, but we're (my wife is tackling this job) having real problems posting them to www.videogamecollectors.com/gallery as directed by Joe. It's easier said than done! You can see by visiting there we've got no less than 5 "non-existent" rooms between us! I try to delete them but nothing happens. Most of the choices in the dropdown "admin options" menu dont do anything either. My wife was able to send half a pic (which I just deleted) but mistakenly did something to stop the process.

    She's going to try again today, but I'd like to direct her to this thread & hope SOMEONE can give an easy step-by-step walkthru on this, or at least give us an idea of what we're doing wrong. Yes, I'm asking you to HOLD MY HAND.

    I just tested it Randy, no problems here.

    Here's what I did.

    1. Went to http://www.videogamecollectors.com/gallery
    2. Clicked [login] from the upper right
    3. Entered my userid/password (these are not the same as your forum ID unless you made it so when you registered on the photo site)
    3. Clicked the drop-down in the upper right and selected "add photos"
    4. The dialog box pops up with the "form" tab highlighted and 5 sets of input forms. Since I only wanted to add one photo I changed the drop-down from 5 to 1
    5. Clicked the "browse" button
    6. Directed Windows Explorer to a file on my hard drive called "shirt3.htm" and double clicked it
    7. Added a caption in the form just below where the filename was now populated
    8. Clicked "upload now" button
    9. Waited a few moments while the transfer took place

    You'll see the file in your album now. By the way, I deleted the other 5 albums you created - there's really no reason to have more than one, I assume you were just testing various options. I also renamed your album from "Untitled" to "RJ".

    Hope this helps!

    My wife was successful today on her mom's computer- something goofy w/ our setup here I guess. The multiple other entries were more attempts at creating/uploading albums. I knew I only wanted one & the others needed deleting.

    Thanks for your help Joe- enjoy the pics everyone!
