Is there a photo album option instead of accumulating a long scroll list of photos?

One of the things that I love about WikiTree is the ability of all your Trusted List members to upload photos.

However, I am wondering if there is an option to create Photo Albums on the Photo page so photos can be uploaded and accessed by all Trusted List members by clicking on the album.

Additionally this would mean not having all the photos you are tagged in appear on your profile page and photo page as a continuous list to scroll through.

Example:

Open Photo Tab for WikiTree member

Open Photo Album 1 = Grandma's Childhood and see thumbnails for:

* Infant Photo 1 (contributed by Aunt Ida Know)

* Infant Photo 2 (contributed by Uncle Kent Wait)

* High School Photo (contributed by Cousin Nita More)

Open Photo Album 2 = Grandpa's Childhood...

 

Thanks!

Hi Kristen,

Photo albums isn't something we have available, or are planning for anytime soon. You can do some of the same things with free-space profiles. For example, you could create a page for your grandmother's childhood home and collect photos there, even when some don't include your grandmother. I don't think "grandmother's childhood" would make an appropriate page, though, since that fits in a bio and the photos of her can be sorted by date.

On free-space profiles it still appears that I can only place photos on the right hand side of the page.  I'd like to have a way to lock the image on the right to text on the left.  Also, the size of the comment box below the image is quite large.  On my profile  a discussion about the picture to the right.

Is that possible?
