How to get rid of Albums? (or force everyone to upload to one album only)

[dpatel304]

For my site, I don't need to have separate albums, so I was wondering if there was any way to get rid of the albums and categories and the users can just upload pics to the site.  If not, is there any way to just make each user forced to upload to the same album?  It's not a big deal, since I have only created one album for the entire site and all its users, but it would be a bit less redundant if each user didn't have to specify which album they want to upload to, since it will be the same for everyone.  Thanks in advance.
