Hello,

I'm new with INvisionPOwer. How to add User Albums ?

If you are talking about true user albums that the user has control over how it's shared/who it's shared with - you don't.  It's a glaring weakness in the Gallery module that it has no true "user" albums.  You can create a general category that users can create albums in, but that's not a true user album as what I'm used to.

This is an example of what I'm used to, and was not able to replicate in the IPS gallery.

Eh, no one from IPS reads product guidance so making a feature suggestion like yours isn't going to get far.  This should really be in Product Feedback.  For what it's worth, I totally and absolutely agree - who CREATES the album shouldn't affect who can VIEW or who can ADD to it.

Yeah, but I've pretty much given up on the Gallery aspect, and the site I currently have running IPS doesn't require it.
My biggest issue is that those "user albums" are created in categories, not under the actual user as true "user" albums.  There is just a finer grain control on the gallery I used as an example (but that carries through to several other aspects of that script also).
