Create an event. Facebook allows you to create events which you can then send out invitations for or make public. To create an event, click the Events link in the left menu. At the top-right corner of the Events page, click the “+Create Event” button.

• Set a name for the event.
• Add details about your event. Let guests know what to expect or bring.
• Set the date for the event. You can use the calendar button to open a calendar and choose a date. You can also specify a start and end time.

Set your event privacy. Before you click Create, set the privacy to the settings that best suit your needs. If you’re throwing a birthday party you probably want to keep it to invite only, but if you’re throwing a concert you’ll probably want to set it to Public.

• If you choose Invite Only, you can choose to allow guests to invite others.

Send out the invites. If your event is Invite Only, then it’s time to send out the invitations. Click the link to “Invite Friends” and a window with all of your Facebook friends will appear. Check the box for each friend that you want to send an invite to.

• You can invite people after the event is created as well.

Click the “Add Photos/Video” button at the top of your newsfeed. This will show two options: Upload Photos/Video and Create Photo Album. Clicking on either of these will open a file browser where you can browse for photos and videos on your computer.

• You will be given the option to add additional photos after you select your first one.
• You can tag friends and write a comment or description of the photo(s).
• This method makes your photos a post on your timeline.

Create a photo album. If you choose the Photo Album option, you will be able to upload multiple photos into one album. The album editor will open and you will be able to give the album a name and a description.

• You can also add a location for the album.
  
• If you want to add the photos at their original quality, click the High Quality box at the bottom of the album editor. Your uploads may take longer.
  
• Click the “+Add More Photos” button to find more photos on your computer to add to the album.
  

Delete photos you’ve uploaded. If you want to remove a photo that you’ve uploaded, you can do so from the photo manager. Click the Photos link in the left menu underneath your profile picture. This will open up all of your photos and albums.

• Navigate to the photo that you want to delete.
• Click the pencil button in the top-right corner of the photo preview. This will open a menu. Click the “Delete This Photo” option to remove the photo from your uploads.

Review your available options. This menu will allow you to change the basic privacy settings that affect your whole Facebook account. Because of the social nature of Facebook, people tend to post a lot of personal information. Customizing your settings can help you keep personal information private. Be sure to review this section carefully so that you know who can see what.

• You can set the default for who can see any future posts you make (this can be changed for individual posts when you make them).
• You can change who can send you a friend request. By default, this is set to Everyone, but you can change it to Friends of Friends, which means that the person who sends the request has to be Facebook Friends with someone on your Friends list.
• You can change who can look you up by email address and phone number.
• You can tell search engines to not link to your timeline. This will prevent your timeline from showing up in web searches.

Check your Timeline and Tagging settings. In the left menu underneath the Privacy option, click Timeline and Tagging. This menu will allow you to control who can post to your timeline, who can see things on your timeline, and how you want tagging to be managed.

• Tagging is the act of adding links to other people in photos and posts.
