Uploading to Galleries

By Amber Clegg

What you need PRIOR to this tutorial:
A finished layout.
To be registered at the site you wish to upload.
Credits (whom and where the products came from) for the products you used, however, please don’t feel you cannot upload if your credits are not complete, just credit where you can. 

1.  For the Lilypad in particular, click the “Gallery” link to go to the gallery.

2.  If you are already registered, log in.  If you aren’t registered, please register first. ? After logging in your username should be where mine is, and you should see the toolbar with the option UPLOAD PHOTOS.  Click UPLOAD PHOTOS.

3.  Once you click upload a window like what’s shown below opens up.  In order to upload your layout, you only need to work with the middle section titled, “Upload Photo”.  See arrows below.

4.  Select the category for which you’d like to upload your image.  For just a normal upload add it to the “Member Galleries”.  If you are participating in a challenge, select the category for that challenge.  You’ll have the option for uploading to multiple galleries a little later.

5.  Then click on the button “Choose File”.

A new window will pop up that will allow you to browse through your computer to find the layout you have saved for the web for uploading.  Once you have found your file select it and click CHOOSE.

You will see your file added.

6.  Now fill out the rest of that section.   Give your layout a title and add the discription and credits in the large box.  I normally put my journaling there as well as my credits.  Then click the button that says “Upload/Submit”.

7.  After you press “Upload/Submit” you have one last screen to manage.  Here you can add additional categories for the layout to be placed in.  You also can double-check the Title and Description.  Then click “Process”.

Your layout should now be uploaded.

Hope this made uploading easier for you.
