Question Is there a way to allow users to create their own categories/albums?

I may not have asked the question properly in the above "title," so I'll try to give an example.

Lets say I have created category called "Pets". If a user has photos to upload of their dogs and of their cats, is there a way the user can create their own sub-categories/sub-albums (within their username category) that will allow them to put their cat photos in a different 'area' than their dog photos?

Create / Edit a "parent" category

- Category Options
-- Act as Members' Category [ x ] Yes [ ] No
-- Allow Users to Create Sub-Categories [ x ] Yes [ ] No

This will make the username categories when files are uploaded. This will also give user a choice to make sub-cats under the parent.

I knew I had seen those options but I looked everywhere except in "Edit Categories"

I made those changes and, on /upload.php?&c=5, I couldn't find where/how the user makes a sub-cat.

I see the dropdown for "Category" but I don't see the sub-cat option.

I see the option under "My Stuff".

Can this option (create user sub-cats) be added to the upload page?

Thanks.
