How to prevent Facebook from automatically publishing my photos on my wall?

In the past, whenever I upload pictures on to FB, it'll ask me for permission to publish it. I haven't uploaded some photos in a while and just right now when I uploaded a few photos, they appeared on my wall. FB didn't even ask me for permission to publish it. I went to the app settings and I don't see photos listed under nor any other way to prevent this from happening. Does anyone here know what has happened?

No idea, but if you don't like what's on your wall just remove it. Click the X in the corner of the post.

I want to create some albums and it's annoying having to go and do that for everyone of them. It's so weird because FB never did that before.

Customize your privacy settings. Under Things Others Share, first item Photos and videos you're tagged in, Edit Settings, Custom Edit, Only Me.

Also Things I share, at bottom: Edit privacy settings for existing photo albums and videos, Profile Pictures, Customize.

That doesn't do the trick.

When your balls descend it won't be an issue any more.

why would you upload them if you don't want others to see them?

You're missing the point. I'm uploading it, but I don't want the photos to be published in my wall. If people are curious, they can always just go to the photos section and view it themselves.
