VERY Basic problems

I have a Dreamhost account, and installed Zen Photo a couple of months ago. Everything went beautifully -- I was able to create a couple of albums and upload photos to them.

Now, when I visit my gallery (http://photos.schnapp.org), I'm presented with the existing albums, but I can find NO way to create new albums or upload photos to existing ones.

Yes, I did visit http://www.zenphoto.org/category/User-Guide/ to try to figure out what I'm missing. I can't really find anything there about how to USE ZenPhoto.

What the heck am I missing? Did I miss something obvious? Did Dreamhost break something? (I've tried using Firefox 3.5 and IE8.)

I feel like a real dummy, but I know I'm not!

    Have you logged in?

    Try going to your login screen: http://photos.schnapp.org/zp-core/admin.php

    Sigh. I feel like such a dope!

    But why the heck isn't there a link to the login page? And where is this documented? (And how the heck did I find this in the FIRST place, because I MUST have done it when I uploaded the first couple of albums!)

    Dang it. Now I found my notes with a link to the admin page and my username/password.

    Thank you VERY much, Justin!

    By the way, the link I've got (and which also works) is http://photos.schnapp.org/admin -- which unsurprisingly forwards to the link you suggested.

    Well, having a link to login is a theme choice. We have not chosen to place that in our standard themes. However, we do provide a plugin that if enabled (and used in a theme) will place a login form on any page.

    also, (presuming you have mod_rewrite working) you can just type mysite.com/zenphoto/admin to get to the admin pages (or login form if you are not logged in.)
