Using Links/Images Galleries

Q: Why should I use the galleries?

A: By using the galleries for your images, links, and downloadable files, you make those resources available to other users. You also make it easier to incorporate them into your other pages. If a link needs to change, or a PDF file needs to be updated, it only needs to be changed in one place, and all of the pages that use that resource from the gallery will automatically get the updated version.
