Title: Gallery Feature (see tab above)
Post by: DingBat on 18 October, 2009, 14:18

Okay, I've finally got the gallery going (see tabs at top)! :ecst:


To use it:

Step 1. Click on the GALLERY tab.

Step 2. Click on one of the galleries available (please don't use the emoticons one yet).
...........2a. If you chose 'User Galleries', click next on your name -> go to step 3.
...........2b. If you chose 'Members' Art' (or any others which I may have added after
............... I wrote this guide), just go straight to step 3.

RC: No indents available in this post reply bit. :irked:

Step 3. Click on 'Add Gallery' in the 'Gallery Admin Panel' section (someone please tell me if you don't see this, but I'm guessing that each member will be able to add galleries to their own bit).

Step 4. Name your new gallery (e.g. Me, My Family, etc.), add a description if you wish (optional, can leave blank), add a gallery icon if you wish (optional), chose the 'Sort By' and 'Order' options you prefer, then click the 'Add Gallery' button.

Step 5. Click on 'Settings' in the 'Gallery Admin Panel' section.

Step 6. Select the settings you want and click the 'Save Settings' button. (You can make galleries private and/or certain members only here.)

Step 7. Add your pictures! :tup:

At the bottom of each gallery page, you should see 'Add Sub Category', 'Bulk Add Pictures', 'Add a picture' and 'Return to Gallery' options.  Chose whichever you wish to use. :nod:



I'm part way through setting up the Emoticons Gallery, hence my request not to use it yet, but it'll have hundreds, if not thousands once I've finished!!


Have a go and see what you think of this feature.  Let me know if you need any help. :D

I've added some more emoticons to the relevant gallery.  You can use them in your posts if you wish.

To use them, simply click on the gallery and/or sub-gallery of your choice, then click on the actual emoticon that you wish to use.  On the page that opens, you will see that you can rate any image (applies to all galleries) and it also gives 'Image Linking Codes'.  Select and highlight the 'BB Code' and paste it into your post!  Easy as 1, 2, 3! :tup:

Btw, galleries are only viewable by members. ;)
