Adding PG pics to "My Favorites" - Answered

[Anita]

Hello, Mods & Admins--

I scanned all four pages of "Ask us," and re-learned some fascinating things, but this question wasn't among them. I see there's a setting for "My favorites" at the photo gallery. I've never used it, so the folder is empty.

Out of curiosity, I thought I'd try to select one. I was able to right-click on an image, and get a menu that included "add to favorites." There are many choices there, but all of them seem to involve the desktop, and not the actual forum page. There is even a folder that says, "Favorites, photo gallery," but clicking on it in different ways did not add the selected picture to the ''My Favorites" link above the photos.

Anyone have experience with this feature?

Answer: Open a picture

click on the "picture info" link ();

scroll down to the picture information below the photo

click on "Add to favorites".

To remove from "My Favorites"

Click on the "My Favorites" link

open the picture you want to remove

click on "Remove from Favorites" below the picture

If the File information isn't open click on the icon

Scroll down and click on "Remove from Favorites" below the picture

The File information is opened and closed by clicking on the icon

Thank you, Donna, it worked like a charm. I'm sure this information will be useful to others. Maybe it should be included in CJ's "How to use the photo gallery" sticky, too.

I right-clicked each of the icons, too, but the "picture info" heading threw me off the scent--generally properties boxes are only info about the picture's size, date of creation, and so on.
