How to work it with your Galleries

To create a gallery, go to the Photo Galleries page, and click "New Gallery" in the green Photo Galleries navigation bar. A pop up will appear with spaces for the gallery name and a description. Notice that the current date is already filled in as the default gallery name. If you want to organize your photos by date, do nothing. If you would prefer to have a specific title for the gallery, like “Summer Vacation in Maine,” title away!

 Please do not use any symbols, such as /, &, #, or @, in your gallery names.

You can also enter a description for the gallery. Once you’ve got the naming business out of the way, click on the Add Photos link.

The next screen will be the Uploader. If you need help with that, click here. Once you’ve got the photos uploaded to your new gallery, you can choose how to store it. All your galleries will be stored as temporary by default. The expiration date will show just under the gallery's name. To store it permanently, just click on “store now.” That album will then appear under the “stored” tab in the green Photo Galleries navigation bar.

“Ch-ch-ch-changes”

You can fiddle around with your galleries, change the names or descriptions, switch them from temporary to long term, or rearrange the order the images are displayed in the gallery. Want to change the cover of your gallery? It’ll always be the first image in the gallery, so change that, change the cover. Easy!

To edit any of your galleries, click on the (edit) link next to the gallery title on the Photo Galleries page (follow the red arrow below). If the gallery is already open, click on the “edit gallery” button just below the Photo Gallery icon in the upper left corner
