Instructions for computer
If you access a social network using a PC or laptop, then all the necessary images must first be loaded into the computer’s memory or onto a flash drive, which you can then connect to the device. It is also advisable to remember the location of the desired file in the folders. This is a general condition for the stated purpose. Further actions depend on what exactly you are looking for: how to add a photo to an album in VK or just upload it to your profile and post it on the wall?
On the page
So, here’s how you can add a photo from your computer to your page on VK:
- Log in to your account and click on the “Photos” section on the left side of the menu.
- At the top left, you can see a blue button that says “Add Photos.” Click on it.
- Find the file you need in your computer's memory and click on it. You can mark multiple images this way.
- Click on “Open”. Wait for the images to load.
- Now you can make a caption for the image (if there are several of them, then for each one), and also, if necessary, expand the picture to full screen or edit it using the built-in photo editor. Also, at this stage you can delete files if some of them were downloaded by mistake. It’s better to do everything at this stage so that you don’t waste time later deleting the album or individual list items.
To the album
If you want to upload a picture to one of the albums, then click on the corresponding button and select the album. Also, you can simply select the “Publish on my page” option, in this case the image will not be attached to any album - this way you can add the photo to VK in “my photos”.
- Ready!
In recording
If you are planning to write a cool post, then it would be a good idea to attach an image to it. As practice shows, posts with pictures make users “hang” on them longer. Therefore, if you are still thinking about how to add a photo to a VK post, run to the social network and click on the line “What’s new?” at the top. Enter your text and then tap the camera icon.
Select the image you need from those already uploaded to the network, or click on the “Upload” button.
All that remains is to indicate the file address and publish the post. As you can see, nothing complicated.
In conversation
It would be very strange if the developers did not provide the ability to upload a picture in a message. But thanks to them, the option is still there. In order to add photos in a VK message, open the conversation you are interested in. There is a camera icon at the bottom, click on it.
Enter the address of the desired file, wait for it to download and click send.
We figured out how to add photos to your page, but how to do this in a group or community? We'll tell you about this later!
Comments and descriptions of photos on VKontakte
Many people upload a bunch of files, forgetting to add a description of the VKontakte photos . But a high-quality, interesting and humorous description is as important a part as the photograph itself. Take photos from some birthday. If you leave them without description, then the maximum, but what you can count on is a couple of comments in the style of “we had a great time” for the entire album. But if the author spends a little of his time writing a witty description of the photos, then the comments on it may well develop into an interesting discussion. Agree, it’s much more interesting and fun, instead of the banal “Sleeping Zhora in the bath,” to read something like “Cosmonaut Zhora is preparing to go into cryosleep” or something like that. By the way, the same applies to comments that the user leaves under photographs of other members of the VKontakte social network.
Posting images to a group
Surely, many of our users also have a question about how to add a photo to a VK group if it opens the possibility of publications for all users or members of this community. It's actually very simple. Here's how you can add a photo to a group page in VKontakte:
- Go to the page of the community you are interested in.
- Find "Photo Albums" - this button is located on the right side of the screen. Click on this button.
- Choose an album that matches the theme of your image.
- Click on the button in the upper right corner
- Select the desired pictures from your device's memory.
- If you want, edit the image or write a caption for it.
- Ready!
We really hope that we helped you figure out how to add a photo to your wall in VKontakte and that you completed this task easily. We wish you many new likes from friends and family, so that you receive only positive emotions from online communication! If you want our specialists to help you, you can do so in the comments.
Convenient editing of photo descriptions - June 23, 2012 - VKontakte +
Convenient editing of photo descriptions |
Editing photo descriptions has become even easier: now you just need to click on any point in the description area. For ease of orientation, this entire area is highlighted in blue. Let us recall that previously, to edit the description, you had to click on the text of the description itself. This made it impossible to quickly make changes if the text only contained a link: we were simply sent to this link without being given the opportunity to edit. And if there is an “Edit” button under a photo from an album, then photos uploaded to the wall do not have such a button. There shouldn't be any more problems like this. : If you go to the post page by clicking on the text or at the time of publication, the description of the photos will be right below them. This eliminates the need to open the photo to read the description. Guard: Zerg Descriptions |
