How to Post Yearbook Pictures to Facebook

Facebook has revolutionized the way we share photos.

A "facebook" is literally a directory of student photos and names. As such, it is fitting that the social networking site Facebook should be used to post yearbook photos. This task can be accomplished in a few easy steps, although uploading pictures may take some time, depending on the number and size of the photographs.

Instructions

1. Save all yearbook photos in a single folder (on your computer, USB drive, CD-ROM or DVD).

2. Log onto Facebook.

3. 

   Create an album or a Facebook group specifically for the yearbook pictures. Creating a group for yearbook pictures allows students to join the group and comment on the pictures.

4. Browse for and locate the folder with the pictures, select all and upload.

5. Write a description for the album--or even each picture--and publish (share) the album. The album will now be posted on your profile or group.

Tips & Warnings

• Instead of writing the names of each student for every photo, you can ask students to tag themselves in their own pictures. This will not only save you a lot of time, but will also prevent you from publishing the names of individuals who do not want their names posted in the album.

• By posting yearbook pictures on Facebook, they may be visible to the public (including those who do not attend your school), even if you restrict your album/group settings.
