Empty Albums? - flyingspatulas - 2008-04-25
I just installed ZenPhoto and am attempting to transfer all of my photos from Coppermine (which I am currently using) to Zen. Is it possible for me to create empty albums until I am ready to upload pictures? Right now I'm just creating albums and uploading the same 1 photo into every album, but ideally I would like to create a structure of empty albums, then upload all of my photos via ftp and insert them into the albums. Is this even possible? Or is there a better/faster way to do what I want?
Any help would be appreciated.

Never mind, I figured it out. All I had to do was upload a photo into the new album and then delete it right after.

Even easier would be to just create empty folders within the albums folder via ftp.

What I found is I created all my albums and uploaded the first image of each. That way, I can do all the CSS formatting and playing I want (using 1 theme and multiple styles) but still be able to view in the Gallery. I then FTP the album's pictures (some >100) when ready.
