Log In. From any page on your site. Go to the Organizer.
To add top folder highlight your name at the top of the left tree.
Top left corner click "Create" and pick folder.

To add subs highlight the parent folder in the left tree
Repeat create and add folder
Repeat for more subs

To add a gallery highlight the folder in tree then click "Create" > Gallery.

I always go to the Organizer to create galleries. If you are on a folder page, the "create gallery"
option there does not have all the settings option.

BTW, all your public top folders will be on the /browse page.

Unless you're wanting to create a Smart Gallery-- it's truly bizarre, but the Organizer "Create gallery" has all or almost all the options, except for Smart Gallery. I found this so confusing-- kept thinking I was just doing it all wrong, but no, you just have to go through a bunch of extra steps-- 1st make the gallery in Organizer to get all the other options available, then go out to the folder or gallery's page & choose "Customize > Gallery Settings" at top & open up those settings now to get the Smart option. It's a silly waste of time, & is yet one more thing that makes Smart Galleries so much less handy than they should be.

ok, i made what i thought was my "main folder" and made sub folders... but it won't let me load photos into them.. they have to be galleries?? OHHHH i m so cofused... grrrrrrrrr Am i really this dumb?

Photos can only be uploaded into galleries. Perhaps instead of sub-folders they need to be galleries.
In Organizer you can delete the sub-folders and add galleries.
