Image tab

On this tab you manage your images. Imported images are web-friendly copies of your original image files which are left intact on your computer.

How to use this feature

To Add images:

  • Click the Add image(s)... button
  • Browse to the location of your image file and select it

To Arrange images:

  • Select the thumbnail of the image you want to move
  • Drag and Drop the image, or click the Move up, Move down buttons to move image thumbnails up or down in the order you want them to appear in the album 

To Rotate images:

  • Select the thumbnail of the image you want to rotate
  • Click the Rotate left, Rotate right buttons until the image appears as you want

To Remove images:

  • Select the thumbnail of the images you want to remove
  • Click the Remove button

Selecting the image album cover

The first image thumbnail in this panel is the default album cover. To select a different image as the album cover, you can either move the image you want to the first position, or you can click the Other tab, select the image thumbnail you want as the album cover, select Manual in the Album thumbnail section, and check the box that says Image used for album cover.

Importing high resolution image files

If you have high resolution image files, the wizard will make them Web- and sharing-friendly by shrinking down their size. If you want to import the images at their original resolution, click on the Other tab, select the thumbnail(s) of the image(s) you want and check the box in the Source image section. You can also Scale down your source images by checking the box and entering the width and height you want. Keep in mind that high resolution source image files usually have large files sizes. Incorporating them in your Web gallery will impact the time it will take to upload your Web gallery as well as the viewer's download time.
