Modifying a Photo Gallery
After you create a Photo Gallery, you can make changes to it at any time. You can add or modify captions and ScreenTip descriptions for the pictures, or edit pictures properties. For readers who disable graphic downloads in their browsers, a caption is good way to convey information regarding your pictures. If you need to change a picture, the Photo Gallery allows you to rotate and crop pictures as well as change picture size. If you don't like your changes, you can restore the picture.

Using SharePoint Services Picture Libraries
If you need more flexibility than the FrontPage Photo Gallery, you can try the Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services picture library. You can store more pictures than the Photo Gallery and you can allow visitors to upload, and modify pictures using the Microsoft Picture Library program included with Microsoft Office 2003. To run SharePoint Services, you need a network server running Windows Server 2003 and SharePoint Services Web server. |
