I'd like to continue experimenting with the photo albums. If you are reasonably computer savvy, and you had photos in our old photo album, please consider reading below. I will eventually make some detailed guides on how to manage your photo album, but right now I need a few people who are willing to poke around without instruction to help me test a couple things.
On our old site, the photo "albums" were not really albums at all. The appearance of albums was created by grouping photos by owner. Here, we have actual albums as containers for our photos. when the old photos were migrated, they were put into a single album called "Member Photo Albums" What I want to do is move all that content into individual member albums.
What I wanted to do was programatically create albums for each member who has any photos, then move those photos into the member album. That is an extremely difficult programming task due to many complexities that I won't get into. What I'd like to try instead is to "spread the pain" (share the love?) by asking members to create their own albums.
YOUR MISSION, if you choose to accept it...
Thanks for your help!

YOUR MISSION, if you choose to accept it...
- Go to the Member Albums Category and create an album with an album title that exactly matches your member name.
- Note that you need to upload at least one photo when you create the album.
- Let me know when you've done this (post here or send me a PM), and I'll try a couple different methods to move your content
