After all, who wants to see those pictures? If so, you should use the View As feature. Once you have this feature enabled, you can simply hit individual photos or albums to remove them. Here&#8217;s how. But first, you&#8217;ll need to know what this feature actually does. First, you should know that Facebook organizes photos into albums, uploads, and photos of you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"View_As_feature\"><\/span>View As feature<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to hide some of the photos on your Facebook profile, you can use the &#8220;View As&#8221; feature. This feature lets you see your profile as if you are a friend of someone else. This way, you can see if any photos you share with that person are private. You can also choose which pictures are tagged. To use the &#8220;View As&#8221; feature, you must be a friend of the person you want to hide.<\/p>\n<p>First, open Facebook and log in. Navigate to Profile &gt; Photos. Select the album you want to hide. Next, click the three dots menu button in the top-right corner of the thumbnail. Select &#8220;Edit&#8221; in the pop-up menu. Choose the appropriate audience for your photo. Alternatively, you can choose &#8220;Custom&#8221; and &#8220;Only me.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hitting_an_album\"><\/span>Hitting an album<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To create a Facebook album, users first need to upload their pictures. Facebook will suggest the number of friends, and users can select one by clicking on the name. Once the photos are uploaded, users can use the three-dot icon to rotate or remove them. Then, select the post photos icon to create a Facebook album. You can also tag friends in an existing album. When you are finished, you can click the &#8216;post&#8217; icon to publish the album to your friends&#8217; walls.<\/p>\n<p>To add additional photos to an album, Facebook lets users publish a cover photo. When a friend clicks on the album link, they will be taken to the photos. These additional photos are then published to Facebook. The photos in the album will appear as individual posts in your analytics. Hitting an album is simple, but you should always read the Facebook guidelines carefully before hitting publish. The following are some basic tips on how to create a Facebook album:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hitting_individual_photos\"><\/span>Hitting individual photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re having trouble hitting individual photos on Facebook, there are a few things you can do to make the process go smoother. First, log out of your Facebook account and restart your router if it&#8217;s not working automatically. Facebook currently supports BMP, JPEG, PNG, GIF, and TIFF files, and you can upload up to 15 MB of photos. To avoid letting scammers access your photos, make sure you select the right file format for your Facebook profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hitting_a_photo\"><\/span>Hitting a photo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When hitting a photo into Facebook, you want to ensure it&#8217;s in the right format. Facebook is not great with various formats, so make sure your image is in one of the supported ones. It&#8217;s also best to stick to the common file types like JPEG, GIF, and PNG, as Facebook will not compress your file. If you don&#8217;t choose the right format, your photo will look blurry and may be compressed.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hitting_a_photo_album\"><\/span>Hitting a photo album<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Sharing photos from Facebook is possible with a simple click. To share a photo, just tap the &#8220;Add to your wall&#8221; button in the main navigation bar. It will be uploaded to your Facebook profile. If you don&#8217;t want to share the photo immediately, you can delete it later. You can also add a description to the photo, and tag your friends and locations. Once you&#8217;ve finished, you can share the album with friends and family.<\/p>\n<p>To share your photos with other users, you need to have an account that allows you to post photos. Once you&#8217;ve created an account, log in to Facebook and open your photo album. Once you&#8217;ve done that, hit the &#8220;Edit&#8221; button in the top right corner of the album thumbnail. In the &#8220;Edit&#8221; window, write a caption for your photo. If you&#8217;re uploading multiple photos, you should set each of them to be public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Hide Photos in Facebook You probably want to hide photos in Facebook.
