Uploading Multiple Photos to a New Album on Desktop

Go to Facebook and log in, if you're not logged in already. Visit Facebook’s home page from any web browser. Use your Facebook account and password to log in. The login fields are on the upper right corner of the page. Click the “Log in” button to proceed.

Go to your profile. Click on your name in the left-hand sidebar, or your profile picture in the upper-right corner. You will be brought to your Timeline, or wall.

Go to your photos. Click on the Photos tab right below your cover photo, and you will be brought to your Photos page.

Click on the Albums tab. All of your Facebook photo albums will appear here.

Click the Create album button. This will bring you to the album creation screen. Enter a name for your album in the field that says "Album Name."

Click Upload Photos or Videos and select your images. To select multiple photos to be uploaded at the same time, hold the CTRL key (or CMD key for Mac) as you click on each photo to upload.

Add the photos. Click on the “Open” button on the lower right corner of the small window, and the selected photos will start uploading to Facebook under a new album. Once you add the photos to the album, they will begin to upload. If you're adding a lot of pictures at once, it may take a while for the photos to upload.

Add descriptions, tags, or locations to your photos, if desired. Once the photos have uploaded to the new album, they will be displayed as thumbnails. You can add descriptions, tag other users, or add a location to your photos if you want. This step is optional, however.

Click Post in the lower-left to create your album. Your album will be added to your Facebook photos, and you can view it by going to the Albums tab of the Photos section of your profile.
