How do I register with PBase?
There is no cost to create an account and try PBase out for a 30 day trial period, but please read the pricing information if you would like to become a PBase subscriber.
You will need to provide the following information in the registration process:
Email Address
Your email address is used to send your password to you if you should forget it. Your address will not be displayed to other users unless you choose to later by editing your account and adding a public email address. You can also login using your email address instead of your username.
Username
Your username is a unique identifier that you will use to login with. It may be up to 24 characters long but a shorter one will be easier for you. It may consist of letters, numbers, and underscores. Usernames are not case sensitive.
Password
Your password is used to authenticate yourself when logging in. It should not be based on a dictionary word and should include letters,numbers, and other characters for increased security. Passwords are case sensitive which means if you use lowercase or uppercase letters, you must type them in exactly the same way when logging in.
First and Last Name
Your first name and last name are displayed on your PBase pages. They may include lowercase and uppercase letters, numbers, and spaces. If this field is left blank, your username will be displayed instead. |

Organizing the Gallery
-
- Images in your gallery are ordered by their sequence number. If you want one image to come before another, make its sequence number less than the other. Adjust all the sequence numbers you need, then hit the Update Titles and Sequence Numbers button.
By default, the image with the lowest sequence number will be the representative image of that gallery.
-
- One image from each gallery is shown in your main galleries page.
By default, the image with the lowest sequence number will be shown, but if you want to choose an image, click the represent link next to that image. Only one image per gallery will be the representative image.
-
- You can add titles to all the images in a gallery at once on the edit gallery page. This saves you from editing each individual image.
Just edit the gallery.
Fill in the titles by the image listings.
Click the "Update Titles and Sequence Numbers" button.
-
- You can update many images at one time using the "Batch Update..." tool on the edit gallery page for any gallery. Use this tool to update title, caption, artist, location, shot date, camera body, camera lens, film type, tech notes, keywords, and publicity of images. First, select the checkboxes by all images you want to update on the edit gallery page. Scroll down to the "Batch Update..." section. Set the appropriate values for any of the fields you are altering. Click the "Update Images" button.... (more)
-
- When editing your gallery, click on the sequencing tab.
Next to subgalleries, there are two options:
add new subgalleries to the beginning of the gallery OR add new subgalleries to the end of the gallery.
Click the appropriate box. Click the Update Placement Settings button.
-
- When editing a gallery, if you want the new images to be seen at the beginning of the gallery instead of the end, click on the "sequencing" tab.
Beside "Images" there are two options: you may either add new images to the beginning of the gallery, or add new images to the end of the gallery.
Click the circle next to "add new images to the beginning of the gallery".
Click the "Update Placement Settings" button.
-
- In order to link subgalleries, go to the Advanced Settings page in the gallery which you want to link from. Select the check box to use Linked Subgalleries Click Update For example: Say you have an Italy gallery. Within the Italy gallery, you have subgalleries for various Italian cities. It would be nice if people could jump directly from the Venice subgallery to the Bologna subgallery without having to go back through the main Italy gallery to get there. The solution is to use linked subgalleries.... (more)
-
- A gallery can be broken into multiple pages, which is useful if there are many images in one gallery.
Choose the number of images you want per page next to the "multi-page gallery" option, or leave blank to have all images on one page. This will insert Page Breaks at the appropriate locations when you choose to update the gallery.
