How does an admin create his own "user gallery" under user galleries?

[troykristoffer]

Im a bit puzzled, but i've been up all night so I could be missing something obvious.

When Im logged in as the admin of my gallery ("troykristoffer") I can upload images to any other album under any catagory, Except under "user galleries".

As you know, if you're a regular user (we'll call this "testaccount1") you can create your own album which appears under "User Galleries" on the front page> Then when you upload an image, it asks you to choose one of the albums you have created from a dropdown menu, to put the image in. Now, under the "Users Galleries" catagory, it lists your username, and then you can click on it and see testaccount1's albums and images.

Now. Heres the problem. When I'm logged in as the admin, troykristoffer, and upload any image, the option to put it in my personal album (listed under "User Galleries") is not available. I can put the image in ANY other album, but one under "user galleries") I also tried to manually create my own gallery, by clicking on the "Albums" button in admin mode, but the dropdown box to choose a catagory for the album does not include "User Galleries"

When I switch to "User Mode" at the of the page, and then try to upload a picture I am presented with this error message: "Sorry there is no album where you are allowed to upload files"

Is there a way for me, when logged as an admin, to act as a normal user and just upload personal images to my own personal album under "user galleries" ??  I think there must be a way, because my roomate who runs guildamicus.org has coppermine and vB3 setup the same way I do, and he has his own user gallery album. (I would ask him how he did it, but he's in Europe for the next 3 weeks.)

Log in as admin user. Click on "Albums" link. Then from the drop down of category list select "My Gallery". Create a new album in "My Gallery" category. Then go to "Upoad File" link. When you are asked to select the album in which you want to place the file, select the album you just created. That's it this album will appear in "User Galleries" like other users album.
