Create an online gallery

Online galleries come in a variety of traditional layouts and designs, and are optimized for viewing images on a web page. The Online Gallery wizard guides you through the process of adding and arranging photos, applying web page layouts and background styles, adding transitions, and sharing the files. Videos in FLV format can be used in web galleries. Enhance photos before adding them to an online gallery. The Online Gallery wizard only lets you arrange photos, not edit them.

  1. In the Photo Browser, select the photos you want to include in your online gallery. Or, from the Editor, place the photos you want to use in the Project Bin.
  2. Click Create  > Online Gallery to open the Online Gallery wizard.
  3. Add or remove photos in the Photos area.
  4. Arrange the photo thumbnails on the left side of the wizard in the order that you want them to appear. To move a thumbnail, drag a thumbnail between the other thumbnails.
  5. Choose a page layout template or select a background design from the Style area. If you choose a Journal layout, you can add captions, but caption text is limited to the width of the text box. To add a longer caption, add a caption to the photo in the Organizer before adding the photo to an online gallery. When you are finished, click Next Step.
  6. A preview of the web page appears in the wizard.
  7. Specify the Customize options for your web page, such as Gallery Title, Slide Duration, and Background.
  8. Type a name for the gallery folder in the Save Gallery As box. This folder contains the web page and image files you can share later. If you want to change the default storage location, click Browse, and select the location where you want to save the online gallery files.
  9. Use the slider and navigation button to preview the Customize options, such as transition from image to image. Experiment with the Customize options.
  10. If you change the default settings, the wizard allows you to save them as a new style. Select Yes and type a name in the Save Style As box.
  11. To view the gallery in a web browser before sharing it, click Preview In Browser. A new browser window opens and displays the gallery.
  12. Specify how you want to share the gallery, and then click Save.
