You can adjust the settings for your the photo albums you post on Facebook, and even for the photos that your friends tag you in. To adjust the settings you will need to do the following.
- Create separate lists of your contacts. These lists can be as simple as “friends”, “family” or “co-workers” etc.
- Go to Settings > Privacy Settings > Profile Information > Photo Albums
- Next locate Photo Albums from the list and click on the Edit Settings Button
All of your photo albums will now appear and from the drop down lists you can select who can see your photos, but you can take that a step further by actually selecting specific lists from not seeing your photo albums.
As you can see in my Mobile Uploads I have blocked my Networking & Co-workers list from seeing these photos. When they go to my photos, that particular album will not appear in my Photo tab.
To block a list of people from seeing a photo album select “customize” from the drop down list type in the name of the list.
To block specific lists of people from seeing photos and videos that you have been tagged in you will pretty much do the same thing.
Go to Settings > Privacy Settings > Profile Information > Photos and Videos of Me
Select the edit button and adjust your settings as necessary. If you want to block a specific list of people you can just type in the name of the list in the “Hide this from” section.
