Image Gallery

The Image Gallery feature allows you to display galleries of images on your site. Galleries are linked as thumbnails from the Image Galleries page. In order to create an image gallery, the Image Gallery feature must be enabled on the website. If you do not currently have the Image Gallery feature on your site but would like to have it set up, please contact webmaster@appstate.edu.
