Albums

April 11th, 2011
I just upgraded to an Ace membership, and I was wondering what to do with my extra albums - whether I use them for rejected pictures or used them later on for further 365 projects. I would like some ideas, so I would like to ask what you use yours for?

Hoorah for your ace membership :)

You could use them for a number of things - because I started my 365 last May, I wanted to start a second one January 1st this year, so I put that in a new album. My third I originally used for challenges (abc, WWYD, etc) but now it's more for the rejects or whatever I feel like posting :)

I am starting my second year and using the second album for that. My opinion is that people do not look back very far in albums because they can get overwhelmed when multiple years are in the same one. It just gets too cumbersome to view.

As I start a new month, in the current year album, I will be deleting out the same month from the previous year album. This way it will be empty for the new year should I countinue and I can alternate albums each year.

My third album contained challenge photos but I have since deleted everything out of it, again because it's last years stuff and most people won't bother looking at it.

I use mine for the extra pic on the day I cannot decide which to post, or for themes/topics, or to post special ones I want shown, etc. A lot of people don't even go to that album, unless they click on a pic posted from there.

I use the main 365 album for the photo every day project and use the other two for shots that didn't make it. Have been thinking of changing one of the extra albums to just be all Hipstamatic iPhone shots. But really it's up to you. I've seen sone people post amazing pictures from their archives (especially travels) in these extra albums.

i use mine for challenges, extra posts or my iphone photos..basically they are the albums where i try to challenge myself with a photo or method i am not comfortable with, to hone my skills:)( or what i am hoping will turn into skills, lol)

I generally use my other album as an overflow. If I've shot a few different angles of an insect then I'll upload a few different shots.

I use my second album for whatever I feel like sharing. I don't use it often, only when the inspiration really hits. It's also good for days where it's hard to decide. I'm intending on using the third for themes and competitions, but haven't done them yet since life is so busy.

@indiannie_jones @dmortega @arrayofblues @rich57 @4stories @dcr @cfitzgerald Thank you for your replies :) I think I may use mine as a random folder, and just let everybody know why those photos are up as and when they go up :) I should enter more of the challenges, so maybe I will use one for that! Thank you for your help :D

I use mine for either a variation of the same photo I post in my main album, photos that are connected in some sort of way or photos that are just "okay" but I still want to put them somewhere other than my recycle bin. (:
