Image Gallery Instructions

Here at GR420 we have a image gallery in which you can store your images to be used in posts or just somewhere you want to keep them to look back on at a later date. All images are stored on our secure servers. You can create galleries and sub galleries, as many as you like. There is no limit to the amount of images you can store to the gallery either.

Creating Galleries

Quick route: User control panel - Gallery - Create Gallery

Before you can start to use the gallery you will need to create your personal gallery. This is easily done by visiting your "user control panel". This can be found by clicking your name on the top right of your screen. You will be taken to a page in which you can customise many features on the forum. From here you click on the "Gallery" tab. You will see a button to create your gallery. Once your main gallery is created any images you upload will be stored here. You can now create separate galleries to use as you wish.

Uploading Images

Quick route: Visit your profile - Users personal albums - Upload image
Quick route: User control panel - Gallery - Select album - Upload image

Above are 2 routes to uploading images. You can upload as many images as you like at once using the above methods. The more images the longer it takes to upload.

By visiting your profile you will see "Users personal albums", click this to be taken through to your gallery/galleries and images. There is a "upload image" button. Once clicked the upload image button will take you through to your computer/device images, you can select multiple images to upload. The next page will allow you to add title, descriptions, rotate etc. Once done here click submit and all your images will be uploaded.

You can also upload images via your "user control panel". This can be found by clicking your name at the top right of the screen. Once in your user control panel you can click "Gallery", select the album you wish to upload to and then select "upload image".

Fast upload

Quick route: Click "Gallery image" button on post box - Click upload image.

Another much faster way to upload and post images into posts is to use the "Gallery image" button on post boxes. By clicking this button you will see a pop up containing all of your images, galleries etc. Within this pop up is a "upload image button". You can upload 1 image at a time when using this way to upload. Upon clicking the image or uploading the image to the post a bb code will appear in your post that will auto display your image when you submit your post. Please note you cannot add title, description or rotate your image when uploading this way.

Posting images

Quick route: Click "Gallery image" button on post box - Select the image you want to post.

When you want to post your images you can do so easily from the post box. By clicking the "Gallery image" button a pop up will display your images, select the image and it will auto embed to you post in the form of a code. In this pop up you can also choose which gallery you want to post a image from.

Another way you can post but longer is to view your image in your gallery. Below the image are 2 codes. One is a direct url, this will take people to you actual image page when shared. The other is a BB code, this will auto embed your images when pasted into a post.
