Why is my EXIF Data not showing up?
You may use a digital camera that supports EXIF, and wonder why this information is not showing up on PBase. The most likely answer is that you have used some software to edit your photos before uploading for cropping, resizing, color correction, etc.

Review your photo editing process and try saving the image a different way to preserve the EXIF information.

Photoshop’s “Save for Web” feature seems to deletes EXIF information from the images. However PS does not actually delete the info, rather it saves it in a format that no software on PBase can retrieve the information from.

So, if you really want to retain the EXIF information of images, but want to decrease the size of the image, you have several options, the easiest of which is probably:
- Instead of “Save for web”, use just the “Save as” and choose a high compression value to reduce the size.

Copies of a Gallery
FAQ
When you copy a gallery or an image to another gallery, that gallery or image will now appear in both the original gallery and the gallery to which you copied it.
Don't worry, it's really the same photo displayed in two different places; you are not using twice as much disk space.

For Images If the image lives in more than one gallery, only the image in the current gallery will be deleted. For Galleries If you copy a gallery to a different parent gallery, there is still only one gallery, just two paths to it. So, any changes you make will show up in both places. Let's say you have gallery C, which has two paths to reach it - one from gallery A and one from gallery B. You want to remove C from B: Edit gallery B. Select the checkbox by the listing for gallery C.... (more)

It is more like there are two paths, or ways to view the image, so you are not using twice as much disk space.

Because there is actually just one image with more than one path to get to it, when you make a change to the original, that change is also applied to the copy, and vice versa.
