Creating a Gallery is very easy, and incorporating a Gallery into a Story is no more difficult than adding photos... except that you have to manually type the code.

Here are the steps.

1. Upload photos as you would for any other purpose.

2. Click "Create New Gallery", and you'll be transported to a screen that looks LIKE THIS

3. Give your Gallery a Title and a Keyword
   REMEMBER THIS KEYWORD... IT WILL NOT SHOW ANYWHERE LATER

4. Change the colors of the background and text in the boxes shown
   (default is white text on black background)

5. In the left column, select the keyword of each photo you want to include in the Gallery.

   NOTE:  Photos can be no more than 750px wide, or 560 high, or they won't show up in the pulldown  
   (This is about as large as you'd want to go for most images on this site anyway)

   note that the keyword pulldown may appear "lower" on the screen than the corresponding number and description fields..  don't worry about this.

6. In the right-hand column, enter a brief description, which will appear below the photo.

7. Continue as above to add up to 20 photos to the gallery

8. <Click "Submit">, and you've created the gallery.
   

Of course until you plug your gallery into a story, it won't be visible anywhere.  

--------------------------------------

Now, create a new story:

1. Click "Post New Story"

2. write your story text

3. Insert your gallery as you would for a popup, but change the tag "[popup] to [Gallery], and using the Gallery's keyword you memorized in step 3 above.

   So,  for example, this demo gallery uses the syntax:
   
   [gallery keyword="GalleryDemo"] demo gallery [/gallery]
   
   (where brackets [  and ] are really < and > symbols, respectively)

4. preview your story by clicking "preview", and when ready,

5. click "Submit"... and your story is posted to the site.
   

I hope this helps.... let's see some amazing galleries.
