Galleries and photos

Find a gallery in the gallery list

Org admin
Gallery List: one row per gallery with its switches
Gallery List: one row per gallery with its switches.

One list of each gallery in the organization, built for changing a setting without opening the gallery.

Creating galleries

Gallery List with the Create galleries card above the filters, and a +2 badge next to a photographer of record
The Create galleries card sits above the filters. The +2 next to a name counts additional photographers.

The Create Galleries card above the list opens a panel that makes one gallery, or one per photographer for a game, and emails each photographer an upload link. It has its own guide: Create galleries for a game and send upload links.

On a row, the name after the date is the photographer of record. A small+2after it counts additional photographers who can upload to that gallery.

Finding a gallery

  • •Search runs shortly after you stop typing and returns you to page one.
  • •Filter by photos (Has Photos, Empty), visibility (Public, Private), whether a public gallery is listed (Listed, Link only), photographer, a date range, and whether public downloads are on. Empty finds galleries nobody has uploaded to yet.
  • •Sort by Newest, Oldest, Most Photos or A-Z. Newest is the default.
  • •Pages hold 50 galleries. The "Showing X of Y" line compares the current page against the filtered total, not against each gallery in the org.

The switches

Public, Listed, Public downloads, and (with AthleteID enabled) AthleteID sit on each row. They save the moment you click, with no confirmation and no save button.

Listed only works on a public gallery. On, the gallery shows on your organization's gallery page and search engines can find it. Off, it's link only: anyone with the URL can still open it, but it isn't on that page or in search.

Public downloads lets anyone who opens a public or password gallery download its photos. Admins and people with download access can always download, whether it's on or off.

Turning AthleteID on is the exception: it asks first, because publishing sends notification emails to each tagged athlete. Turning it back off does not ask, and does not un-send anything.
Turning Public on asks first too. Pick Listed on your public page to show the gallery on your organization's gallery page, where search engines can find it, or Link only to keep it off that page and out of search. Either way, anyone with the gallery's URL can open it. For photos that shouldn't circulate, send a share link instead.

The public link

A copyable link appears under the title only when the gallery is public. The displayed link is shortened; the full URL is what gets copied. If a gallery has no link and the view button is greyed out, it is not public.

Deleting

Delete asks once, tells you how many photos go with it, and cannot be undone.

Deleting is a background job. A gallery may sit on the list briefly marked Deleting. Delete failed means the job did not finish.
Each switch here is optimistic: it moves before the server answers. If a save fails the row snaps back and a red message appears. Watch for the confirmation rather than the switch.
GalleryID

Athlete naming for sports photographers and athletic departments. GalleryID Desktop ingests, culls and captions on your own computer, and nothing is uploaded; SidelineID is Desktop on your phone at the game. GalleryID Cloud is the hosted archive you search by athlete name. The built-in Roster Library covers NCAA Division I, II and III and the major US pro leagues.

Find photos by athlete, not by filename.
