You can give your Facebook page a truly personal look by learning how to upload photos on Facebook.  The best part about uploading photos on Facebook, is that they do not have to be edited or resized before you do it.  You can use personal photos, family photos, or photos you find online and place them on your profile page. 

How to upload photos on Facebook:

  1. Log in.  Before you can learn how to upload photos on Facebook, you will need to log in to your Facebook account.
  2. Go to profile.  While on the home page, you'll see three words located in the upper right corner of the screen.  These words read:  Home.  Profile.  Account.  Select the one that says 'profile'.
  3. Go to photos.  In the middle of the screen, just below where your name is displayed, you'll see several blue tabs.  You'll want to select the one that says 'photos'. 
  4. Create a photo album.  If you already have photos uploaded to Facebook, you'll see those displayed here.  If not, this is first page you'll need to go through to learn how to upload photos on Facebook.  You'll see a tab that reads, "+ Create a Photo Album".    Give the album a name.  For example, if you are uploading picture from Christmas, name the album "Christmas". 
  5. Upload photos. You should now be looking at a screen that shows photos stored on your computer.  This is the final page you will need to visit to learn how to upload photos on Facebook.  You can scroll through these photos and find the ones you want to use, or you can click on the 'select all' box to upload all of them.  When you're done, click on the tab that reads 'upload photos', located at the top of the box. 
  6. Wait while the photos upload.  If you have selected several photos to upload to Facebook, it may take some time for them to all load.  Be patient and wait.  A box will appear, indicating when the photos have been successfully uploaded.

That's all there is to learning how to upload photos on Facebook!  Pretty simple, don't you think?   Remember that Facebook does NOT allow photos that are offensive in nature, or that contain nudity, so be careful about which photos you select.
