Your account is created automatically when you signed up with ScubaBoard so there is no forms to fill out and no process to go through. To get started simply head on over to
http://www.scubaboard.com/gallery/.
As a new gallery user you have two main choices for your initial action, you can either start uploading right away by clicking "
Upload Photos" in the second navigation bar (right hand side) or you can create your own sub-albums in the "
Album Admin" located on the left side of the navigation bar.
As the names imply, upload photos will take you right to a page with a short form to upload your photo. Here you can select one photo along with a title and description or you can upload a zip archive containing upto 1000kb of photos in a single upload (each account gets 50,000kb or about 50MB of space with more avaliable upon request). Our software is designed to capture data directly from your camera with all of the technical specs if your camera is set to save it to the image.
The album admin allows you to create your own specially named albums for your own categorization or for public viewing by other users. The benefit of albums (beyond organization) is that you can create private areas to store photos that you don't want the whole world to see (remember, the TOS applies to all content so this is meant for privacy, not devious acts).
A final feature is the profile page which you can also reach from the second navigation bar. This page tells you your photo history, space used, space remaining and lets you view some other basic stats about your account. You can also click on "My Gallery" to view your own photos which you may edit, title or delete as you like.
If you have any questions about the gallery, uploading, space or other issues please let me know here, in site support or via a private message.
