No Album link in my CP, can't upload photos?

Hello, I have no album link in my profile or CP. Do I need to be a member for a while before I can upload any photos?

Thank you

Do you mean you want to upload photos to the gallery or in your posts? If you want to upload to the gallery I think you just click on gallery (link on the left) & just click on upload.
If you want to add photos to your posts there's a thread here that explains that.
How To Embed Photos
I think you have to be a member for a while or have made a certain number of posts before you can add photos, not sure now it's been such a long time!!

You are not out of moderation yet so photos may not post. Nobody really uses the gallery so best just to embed pics as shown in that link. Please ensure that they are resized to a max 650 pixels wide or else they will not show properly.

Cypher and Souffle, oh ok thank you, I will try to embed. I just wanted to upload a picture of my little guy onto my profile or somewhere to join in. I'm not even sure I am replying in the right way at the moment. Sorry to be uninformed I haven't had a chance to learn more lately since my little guy has been ill and taking all my time. Thank you for the help.

Oh my goodness isn't he gorgeous! That face. He clearly likes you a lot by the way he looks happy

There is a stage further you can go with the photos. At the moment they are uploaded and show when you click on the link. After that you can go to the paperclip at the top, and click on "insert all". Some letters/numbers will appear in your message at the point where you left the cursor. Then press submit for the post and the photos will appear. There are various ways to resize them depending on what type of pc or phone/tablet you're using. It's very quick in Windows using Paint. Some of the apps I find a bit fiddly.

You probably can't go back to your last post and do that now (a link is fine anyway)but you could have another go on a new post.
