And offers to click on the link to start creating your first photo album.

By clicking on the “click here” link, you will be taken to the “New Album” page. Here you will be prompted to enter the name of your album with photos and its description in the empty lines. Under these lines you will see information that “All users” can view and comment on the album and photo “VKontakte”. If you left-click on the inscription “All users”, a context menu will appear with options for those who you can allow or block from viewing your photos: “All users, Only friends, Friends and friends of friends, Only me, Everyone except ..., Some friends." Select an option and click the "Create Album" button.

The system will redirect you to the Add Photos page.

To do this, open a folder with your photos on your computer, mark the ones you want to download by pressing and holding the “Ctrl” key.

When the photos are uploaded, you need to click on the button at the bottom of the page “Submit” and in the small window that appears, click on the “Submit” button again. The system will inform you that the upload is complete and you have successfully uploaded the Vkontakte photo. On the right side you will see the uploaded photos, and to the left of each Vkontakte photo there will be an empty rectangle in which you can enter a description of the photo.

Please note that all VKontakte photos from your albums can be edited at any time by changing the settings for viewing and commenting on your VKontakte photos. But you can edit the entire album, that is, the editing settings will be applied to all photos in the album. If you want to make some “VKontakte” photos available only to friends, and some to everyone, you need to put them in different albums. And for each album, set its own privacy characteristics.

Photos are automatically added to the “Photos with me” list after you or your friends mark you in the “VKontakte” photo. You can only remove a photo from your Photos with Me folder by deleting the photo from the uploader's album. If you need to save some photo “VKontakte” from the “Photos with me” folder, use the right mouse button and select “Save As”. Crop the photo “VKontakte”, so that only you are the best on your computer, using any photo viewing and editing program for this, and then uploading it to the site.

The site "VKontakte" does not support multi-layer photos "VKontakte". therefore, you will not be able to place an animated picture.

If you accidentally blocked some photos in VKontakte, you can fix the situation if you clean the browser. It does not matter which Internet browser you use, the algorithm of actions is the same. In Mozilla Firefox, you need to go to the “Tools” tab, select the “Settings” item and the “Content” tab. Make sure that there is a checkmark next to “Automatically download images”.
