Transcript:How to Create a MySpace Photo Album and Slideshow

Hi, I'm Don Schechter for About.com Computing. Today I'll show you how to build a MySpace photo album.

Upload Photos to MySpace

Sign into myspace.com with your username and password. Click the add edit photos link from your myspace homepage. Then click the browse button to locate the photos you want to upload and put in an album. Select multiple photos at the same time by control clicking. Then click 'open' and the photos will be uploaded to your Photo Upload box. Click 'next.'

Add Photos to a MySpace Album

Here you will be asked if you want to add them to an existing album, which you can find in the drop down menu, or create a new one by typing a title for it. Click 'upload.' After it's done, click 'next.' You can add a caption to each photo if you like then click save when you're finished.

Arrange the Photos in MySpace

Click 'arrange photos' to change the order of the pictures. Click and drag them until they are in the order you want. The first photo will be the photo album cover on your myspace page. Click 'save.' On the next page, you can customize the album cover. This is what visitors will see when they look at your photo albums. Click and drag the box to a part of the first photo which is the album cover.

When you like it, click 'save album cover.' That's it. Your photo album is created.

Create a MySpace Slideshow

Now you can add your album as a slideshow by clicking here. Find the album you want to use in your profile in the drop down menu. Then highlight the html code in the box and press control c to copy it. Navigate to where you want to put the slideshow in your myspace personal information. And paste the code by pressing 'control V' in one of the text boxes. Click 'save all changes.' Click view my profile on the right side to see what it looks like.

Creating a photo album on myspace is very easy and it's a great way to post pictures for your friends. Thanks for watching. For more information please visit us online at computing.about.com.
