Help:Galleries

An easy way to display lots of photos on a page is to use a gallery or a slideshow.
 * To create a gallery or slideshow, click the [[File:PhotosIcon.png]] button in the toolbar while editing.


 * To modify an existing gallery or slideshow, click the "Add a photo" button just under it when viewing an article, or hover over it and choose "modify" while editing it.


 * If you would like to convert an existing gallery to a slideshow and vice-versa, simply add  to the gallery tag in wikitext mode. For example   to.

Gallery
Within the gallery editor, you can add, move and remove photos, add captions, link photos to specific articles and change photo sizes.

It is also possible, via wikitext, to set a title for the gallery ("caption") and the number of photos per row ("perrow"). If perrow isn't specified, the number of photos displayed per row will adjust automatically according to the size of the browser window.

Remember, to modify an existing gallery or slideshow, click the "Add a photo" button just under it when viewing an article, or hover over it and choose "modify" while editing it.
