Before You Start
As you use B*Gallery, a couple of pieces of terminology are important to understand as they have specific meanings in our context. First, a gallery is a top-level container; users may have one or more of these. A gallery consists of various user-defined categories, which are simply sub-containers used as an organizational tool. Finally, a category consists of albums, which is the lowest level container. All photos are ultimately stored in albums. For example, an user might have a single gallery named "My Photos." The user may create multiple categories such as "Vacations", "Family", "Hobbies", etc. Inside a category such as "Vacations", we might find various albums which each represent a particular vacation. In cases where categories alone do not provide enough organization due to a high number of albums, a user may wish to create multiple galleries. An example gallery might be titled "Vacations." Its categories may consist of "Europe", "Cruises", "American Midwest", etc. This allows the user's multiple albums of European travel to be stored under the "Europe" category. The user may then want to create additional galleries to hold photos pertaining to their family, hobbies, etc. Quick Start Tutorial
