Making a link to "create gallery"

Hi,

some members of my site (www.hangar217.com) have a hard time to fill up their profile: they just dont see the tabs for editing their profile and creating node gallery albums.

I have made a few links using Panels to the different profile categories using this code:

global $user;
print l(t('edit account/profile'),'user/' . $user->uid . '/edit');

I would like to know how to modify this code to add in a "panel" a link (in bold!) to make it easy for members to create an album (so they dont have to go through the tabs).

Thanks!
