How to create a Photo Album

{s:AlbumImageThumbnailStyle|width: 800px;}

# Start by looking for an existing photo album. You can see all available albums by [[/Wiki/AllPages.aspx?Cat=Album|using this link]]. <br /><br />
# If you do not see an existing album, then you may create a new one by selecting clicking on the Create a new page link on the sidebar or by [[/Wiki/Edit.aspx|clicking this link]] <br /><br />
# When the new page comes up, first enter a title for the new album. Something logical and organized. For example, an album for a Reunion should be named City, State - Year. Our Savannah Reunion in 2010 has the title Savannah, GA - 2010. Our Reunion Day albums should bare the name Reunion Day, Deenethorpe - 2014 or Reunion Day, Margraten - 2014. <br />{s:AlbumImage|{UP(How-to-create-a-Photo-Album)}SAAP00.jpg|Enter a Page Title|After entering the title, you need to click save before you can upload any photos.} <br /><br />
# We need to set our thumbnails to a specific size, so before you save the page, enter this into the page body:@@{s:AlbumImageThumbnailStyle|height: 120px;}@@ <br /><br />
# Once you've entered a title and set your thumbnail size, you need to save the page before you can upload any photos. Simply click "Save" and when the page reloads, click "Edit" and take a moment to notice the new name of the page in the URL bar. <br />{s:AlbumImage|{UP(How-to-create-a-Photo-Album)}SAAP01.jpg|Note the Page Name|Note the name of the newly created page, you will need it later.}  <br /><br />

# Next, you need to enter a tag into the body of the the album. If, for example, you uploaded a photo named SuperAwesome.jpg, your tag will look like this: @@{s:AlbumImage|{UP(SuperAwesomeAlbumPage)}SuperAwesome.jpg|Super Awesome|Nothing is more awesome than this photo!}}@@ The first part of the tag (s:AlbumImage) is simply the tag's name. The second part is the name of the photo you uploaded. The third part is the title of the photo. And the last part is a description of it's contents. <br />{s:AlbumImage|{UP(How-to-create-a-Photo-Album)}SAAP03.jpg|Create a ImageAlbum tag|Enter the Page Name you wrote down earlier and the Photo Name you just uploaded. You may also enter a Photo Title and Description.} <br /><br />
# You will need to create a tag like the above for each and every photo you upload. However, if you don't want an uploaded photo to display, it is not necessary to create a tag, and, of course, you can also remove an existing tag to remove that photo from the album.  <br /><br />
# Notice that the tag, photo, title and description are separated by a | symbol. This is a separator between those items. The s:AlbumImage and photo name are required, but the title and description are not, although we do encourage them. So, if you create an image that does not have a title and description, it should look like this: @@{s:AlbumImage|SuperAwesome.jpg||}@@ Notice the | symbol is still there, they're just empty. <br /><br />
# You can enter additional wiki markup to the formatting of the page but this is not necessary. Just stacking the album tags next to each other (or on separate lines) is enough to create a simple album. <br />{s:AlbumImage|{UP(How-to-create-a-Photo-Album)}SAAP04.jpg|Markup or no Markup|Here's is an example of a page with extra markup and AlbumImage tags stacked side by side.} <br /><br />
# When you're done, don't forget to save. :)
