How do I know if I am autoconfirmed?

I really want to be an image supplier for Bulbapedia, so I started contributing to a ton of pages. Before, I could not access the upload page due to not being autoconfirmed. Now, however, I can. The only thing is that I get a message saying "You do not have permission to make a new page" every time I try to upload an image for a page that I want to contribute to. I tried creating a forum page, and it worked. However, I still cannot upload due to that error message. Please help!
 
@EACreator1; You can view the usergroups you belong in via Special:preferences.

However, I should note that being autoconfirmed on Bulbapedia doesn't make you autoconfirmed on Bulbanews or the Bulbagarden Archives. Each one's usergroups are separate, so helping out on each of the three wikis must be done in order to become "globally" autoconfirmed.
 
@Kogoro How would I contribute to the archives? Do I have to help with the to-do list, or do I have to contribute to something else?

There are several ways one can contribute before being able to upload themselves, such as; clarifying file summaries, adding missing categories to file pages, or simply making upload requests to a staff member if you have something you want uploaded.
