Galleries are online photo albums viewable by the public. Each Gallery represents a specific time, event, meeting or topic.
The General Gallery contains photos taken in a specific year.
Event Galleries contain photos taken at a specific Event such as Spring Fling, Sewing Retreat or Annual Meeting.
NG/SIG Galleries contain photos of a specific NG/SIG's programs, Sew N Tell's, parties, etc.
Member Contribution Galleries consist of photos that a member wants to share. Any member can have their own Gallery (one per member). The only requirement is that it must pertain to needle work or a needle related activity. Please contact Julie B. for details.
We do not have the space on our website to store our photos so we use a Professional Photo Service called Smug Mug to store our photos. Smug Mug has given us unlimited photo and video storage under their Non Profit plan.
The public can view our photos in our various Galleries (photo albums) by going to our SGCASG Smug Mug Home Page and clicking on a Gallery. They can right click on a photo to download it or share it.
Galleries are inside Folders
A Folder contains one or more Galleries. Each Gallery represents a specific time, event or meeting.
