How to Create a Gallery

A gallery is a named collection of photos that you can reuse across multiple photobooks and photo print orders. Galleries live in your account — uploaded once, available everywhere.

Why Use Galleries

Upload your photos once, link them to multiple projects
Organize by trip, event, year, or person
Share large collections across devices without re-uploading

Step-by-Step

1. Open Your Galleries

2. Create a New Gallery

Click "Create Gallery". A modal opens asking for a name.

Name is required (3–100 characters)
Pick something descriptive: "Italy 2025", "Anna's First Year", "Family Reunion"

Click Create — you'll be taken to the empty gallery.

3. Upload Photos

In the gallery view:

Drag and drop photos from your computer, or
Click Upload to pick files from a file dialog, or
On mobile, tap Upload to pick from your camera roll

Photos upload in the background. You can keep adding while the first batch is still uploading.

4. Use the Gallery in a Project

When you start a photobook or photo print order, the gallery picker lets you select an existing gallery instead of uploading new photos. Photos appear immediately in the editor.

Tips

One gallery per event or theme — easier to find later than a giant "All Photos" pile
Upload originals at full resolution — the editor and printer use the original quality
Re-use galleries across projects — the same photos can power a photobook AND a photo print pack

Photo Requirements

For best print results:

Resolution: 300 DPI or higher
Format: JPG or PNG
Color: sRGB color space (most cameras and phones default to sRGB)
File size: No hard limit, but very small files (under 1 MB) may show low-resolution warnings on larger photobook sizes

See Photo Requirements & Quality Guide for details.
