On the main page go to chat, then site rooms.
enter image description here
Scroll to the very bottom and create a room.

Once you're in the room, go to info.

Then access, and grant explicit write access.

Then just invite to chat like normal.

  • Thank you for posting this and for helping me out with that room, however I just tried it and it doesn't work for me. I get "Users must have at least 20 reputation to talk" in big red letters. I wonder if I don't have enough reputation myself to grant write access? May 28, 2012 at 8:58
  • That's possible I guess. May 28, 2012 at 10:43

    you need a specific amount of rep to create a gallery chat room. if you dont have enough rep you can't give explicit write access.

  • I believe they imposed a hard limit on 20 now, meta.stackexchange.com/questions/100291/…
