Good day!

I wish to allow new members to upload pictures as soon as they subscribe, but not allow them to post anywhere else. Is this possible?

The example is http://www.talkingdogs.blogharbor.com where they have a place to post stories and pictures of dogs, but I want that to be the only thing they can do.

Is this possible?

Thank you!

You can create a category or Photo Album to which you would allow specific users or groups of users the ability to post.

It would be necessary to add each user to your permissions list; see these pages for some information on adding users with the ability to post to a specific category:

Add and Delete Users With Custom Permissions

Manage Permissions and Security for Groups

My suggestion would be to create a Photo Album you want to let your users post to, then to create a group which has permission to post to that album. Assign to that group any users that you want to allow to post to the album.

It's actually going to be at http://talkingdogs.blogharbor.com, there is no leading 'www' on a blog using the standard BlogHarbor address.
