Members can also browse pictures recently uploaded to LibraryThing, "snag" pictures uploaded by others, and flag incorrect or inappropriate author and venue images. </p><p>There are four kinds of galleries: </p> <ul><li> <b>Member Galleries</b>, where members can upload and manage pictures for their profile and their personal use;</li> <li> <b>Author Galleries</b>, where members can see and manage pictures for Author pages;</li> <li> <b>Venue Pictures</b>, where members can see and manage pictures for LibraryThing Local venues.</li> <li> <b>Group Galleries</b>, where members can add and see pictures for their Groups.</li></ul> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Member_Gallery">Member Gallery</span></h2> <p>Every member has a LibraryThing <b>Gallery</b> where they can upload, store, and share pictures. Each member may upload up to 250 images. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Image_Organization">Image Organization</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Member_Gallery_2">Member Gallery</span></h3> <p>The Member Gallery is your main storage space and is meant for images you want to keep and let other members browse. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Junk_Drawer">Junk Drawer</span></h3> <p>The Junk Drawer is designed for holding screenshots and pictures for Talk. Pictures are visible to all, but do not show up in your member gallery. Other members cannot see pictures in your Junk Drawer unless they have a direct link to the image. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Uploading_Images">Uploading Images</span></h2> <p>From your profile: </p> <ul><li>Click on your profile picture or 'Your member gallery' in the right sidebar.</li> <li>Choose 'add another picture' from the left.</li></ul> <p>The 'upload image' box will open. Here you can: </p> <ul><li>Browse to an image on your computer or paste in the URL of an image located online. </li> <li>Choose whether the image will be uploaded to your 'Member Gallery' or 'Junk Drawer.'</li> <li>Make the image your profile image.</li> <li>Choose to allow or disallow comments on the image. </li> <li>Choose to allow other members to snag (re-use) your image.</li> <li>Add tags to your image.</li> <li>Add a copyright statement to your image (click 'advanced').</li></ul> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Editing_.26_Deleting_Images">Editing & Deleting Images</span></h3> <p>Once an image has been uploaded, you can browse to it in either your Member Gallery or your Junk Drawer. Clicking on the image will reveal options to edit or delete it. Choosing 'edit' will open the same options you see when you first upload an image. Choosing 'delete' will ask you to confirm deletion before deleting the image. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Viewing_Images">Viewing Images</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Your_Gallery">Your Gallery</span></h3> <p>Access your pictures by clicking the link directly below your profile image which tells you how many pictures you have uploaded to your member gallery or by clicking 'Your member gallery' in the right sidebar. Links at the left allow you to toggle between your Member Gallery, which is publicly viewable to all, and your Junk Drawer, which is viewable only to you unless you share the direct link to a picture. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Others.27_Galleries">Others' Galleries</span></h3> <p>From their profile page, access their Member Gallery by clicking on the link below their profile picture which reads 'See all # images.' </p><p>You can browse their images and view large versions (if available) by clicking on the image. You can also comment on images if they have enabled comments. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Sharing_Images">Sharing Images</span></h2> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Commenting_on_Images">Commenting on Images</span></h2>    </div><div class="printfooter"> Retrieved from "<a dir="ltr" href="https://wiki.librarything.com/index.php?title=HelpThing:Gallery&oldid=66754">https://wiki.librarything.com/index.php?title=HelpThing:Gallery&oldid=66754</a>"</div> </div> <div id="footer"> <div id="footer-navigation" role="navigation"> </div> <div id="footer-info" role="contentinfo"> This page was last edited on 29 June 2011, at 04:28. </div> </div> </div> <div id="mw-navigation"> <h2>Navigation menu</h2> <div id="toplinks" role="navigation"> <p id="syslinks"><a href="/index.php/Main_Page" title="Main Page">Main Page</a> | <a href="/index.php/wiki.librarything.com:About" title="wiki.librarything.com:About">About</a> | <a class="external" href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Contents">Help</a> | <a href="/index.php/wiki.librarything.com:FAQ" title="wiki.librarything.com:FAQ">FAQ</a> | <span id="pt-login"><a href="/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=HelpThing%3AGallery" title="You are encouraged to log in; however, it is not mandatory [o]" accesskey="o">Log in</a></span></p> <p id="variantlinks"></p> </div> <div id='quickbar'> <div class="portlet" id="p-search" role="search"> <h3>Find</h3> <form id="searchform-sidebar" method="get" class="inline" action="/index.php/Special:Search"><input name="search" placeholder="Search wiki.librarything.com" title="Search wiki.librarything.com [f]" accesskey="f" class="mw-searchInput" size="14"/><br /><input type="submit" name="go" value="Go" title="Go to a page with this exact name if it exists" class="searchButton"/><input type="submit" name="fulltext" value="Search" title="Search the pages for this text" class="searchButton"/></form> </div> <div class="portlet" id="p-navigation" role="navigation"> <h3>Browse</h3> <ul><li id="n-mainpage"><a href="/index.php/Main_Page" title="Visit the main page [z]" accesskey="z">Main Page</a></li><li id="n-recentchanges"><a href="/index.php/Special:RecentChanges" title="A list of recent changes in the wiki [r]" accesskey="r">Recent changes</a></li><li id="n-help"><a href="https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:MyLanguage/Help:Contents" title="The place to find out">Help</a></li></ul> </div> <div class="portlet" id="p-pageoptions" role="navigation"> <h3>This page</h3> <ul><li id="ca-nstab-helpthing" class="selected"><a href="/index.php/HelpThing:Gallery">HelpThing</a></li><li id="ca-talk" class="new"><a href="/index.php?title=Groups:Gallery&action=edit&redlink=1" rel="discussion" title="Discussion about the content page [t]" accesskey="t">Discussion</a></li><li id="ca-history"><a href="/index.php?title=HelpThing:Gallery&action=history" title="Past revisions of this page [h]" accesskey="h">History</a></li></ul> </div> </div> </div> <script> function lt_getCookie(cname) { var name = cname + "="; var decodedCookie = decodeURIComponent(document.cookie); var ca = decodedCookie.split(';'); for(var i = 0; i <ca.length; i++) { var c = ca[i]; while (c.charAt(0) == ' ') { c = c.substring(1); } if (c.indexOf(name) == 0) { return c.substring(name.length, c.length); } } return ""; } var ltusername = lt_getCookie('cookie_wikiuserid'); var lt_user = document.getElementById('lt_user'); var ltusername_el = document.getElementById('ltusername'); var lt_signout = document.getElementById('lt_signout'); var lt_signin = document.getElementById('lt_signin'); if (ltusername != '') { ltusername_el.innerText = ltusername; lt_user.style.display = 'inline'; lt_signout.style.display = 'inline'; lt_signin.style.display = 'none'; } else { ltusername_el.innerText = ''; lt_user.style.display = 'none'; lt_signout.style.display = 'none'; lt_signin.style.display = 'inline'; } </script> <script>(window.RLQ=window.RLQ||[]).push(function(){mw.config.set({"wgPageParseReport":{"limitreport":{"cputime":"0.019","walltime":"0.031","ppvisitednodes":{"value":53,"limit":1000000},"ppgeneratednodes":{"value":76,"limit":1000000},"postexpandincludesize":{"value":1383,"limit":2097152},"templateargumentsize":{"value":0,"limit":2097152},"expansiondepth":{"value":2,"limit":40},"expensivefunctioncount":{"value":0,"limit":100},"timingprofile":["100.00% 5.175 1 -total","100.00% 5.175 1 Template:HelpThing"]},"cachereport":{"timestamp":"20241125051902","ttl":86400,"transientcontent":false}}});});</script><script>(window.RLQ=window.RLQ||[]).push(function(){mw.config.set({"wgBackendResponseTime":386});});</script> </body></html>
