Tagging the photos, albums and forum posts is mandatory. In most cases, you have to add 3 tags at the very minimum. Tags are simply words that describe the photo.
The search system here at the new USG is very powerful and tagging items helps the search engine locate your photos and forum posts when other members are looking for things. Also, it helps USG get listed on Google.
The easiest way to add tags is to simply enter a word then hit the comma key. The comma enters the word as a tag. You have to add at least three but the more tags, the better.
For example, If I post a photo of me bulging in a classic white Bike
Jockstrap I could add the tags:
Bike,
Jockstrap, Classic, Sports, Jock, White, Selfie, Bulge, Sportswear, Vintage
If you are posting a bunch of photos of you in the same
jockstrap then instead of tagging each one individually, simply type out your tag word separated by commas into a text editor, a post or message window here on this site or anywhere you can type some text. Be sure to end the string of words with a comma. Then copy the string of words and paste it into the tag box of each photo. For example, If I'm posting a photo of me in a Vintage white Flarico
jockstrap, I'd type the string:
Flarico,white,vintage,sportsjock,
Then I'd copy the string and paste it and the tags will automatically be entered.
