CommonSpot includes an Image Gallery feature that allows administrators and content contributors to organize and control collections of images. See the Overview of Image Galleries and the CommonSpot Image Galleries and Image Editor for a high level explanation.
You can access the defined Image Galleries through Tools > Image Galleries or through the Manage Galleries option in Find or Choose Image operations. (See Find Images.)
Use this dialog to view, edit, or delete image galleries that you own, set defaults and favorites, and create new collections of images.
The default view in the Image Upload dialog is "All Visible Galleries". This can be changed in the Manage... > Image Galleries dialog where one can set galleries as Favorites and determine what the Default list will contain via the select list at the bottom of the Image Galleries dialog. This setting is also reflected in the Upload New Image dialog - Image Gallery: select list.
This dialog is similar to other CommonSpot dialogs.
Use the filter bar options to narrow the list of Image Galleries that you see. To find a gallery with a specific keyword or phrase in its name or description, enter that keyword/phrase in the Search input control and choose the desired Search Criteria option, then click Filter. To quickly see your favorites, choose My favorite galleries option from the Type selection list.
This dialog lists the galleries you have access to based on your permissions. You can re-sort the list by clicking any of the column headers.
