| {Resolved} Random Album Picture - Forums Front Page This is kind of a cool little feature that I'm not sure I've seen used before. Is there a thread somewhere used for adding pictures to it, or do you have to know someone?
(did a search but couldn't find what I was looking for, maybe just using the wrong search string)
Any info would be cool. |

| Re: Random Album Picture - Forums Front Page I know that MetalPriest has a journal thread just dedicated to tons of cool band pics that he finds. If you are interested in posting whatever cool pictures you can find I'd recommend making a journal for it! |

| Re: Random Album Picture - Forums Front Page Ha  I think Soot misunderstood you..  But to make sure: if you just want to talk about great pics: feel free to create a blog or a journal...
But I'm thinking you are talking about the random album pictures on the front page  as the title suggests...
Just go to your profile (for example by clicking your name in the right upper corner) and scroll down. On the right you'll see a function "Albums".
I have 2.. You can create your own album right there and fill it with pictures of your choice. And then they'll be randomly selected and they'll pop up on the front page now and then...  hope this helps.

| Re: Random Album Picture - Forums Front Page The random pictures on the front page are chosen from member created photo albums found in your profile as Oblivion described.
you dont need any certain post count to make a photo album.
you can set the photo album where the images wont be on the front page, too. (thought i would add that) |

| Re: Random Album Picture - Forums Front Page That is exactly what I was looking for. I'll have to add in a few of my favorite album covers from work tonight (may as well get paid to do it, eh?  )
Thanks a bunch! |

Nope, I don't think so... The site resizes them if I'm not mistaking... Most of the pics I uploaded are desktop wallpapers... And on here they are half that size.
Although I might have uploaded them to imgbam, which has the function of resizing while uploading...
