Question: How do I create a Media Group?
Answer:

You must register for a user account to create a Media Group. When you register a user account, you automatically create a default Media Group, titled Default Group. You can browse IHM and add images to this default Media Group.

To create a new Media Group after you have registered:

  1. Select Media Groups located under Create in the menu bar.
  2. Enter a name for your Media Group.
  3. Choose whether you want your Media Group to be publicly accessible by selecting Yes or No.
  4. Create a password to restrict who sees your Media Group (this is optional).
  5. Choose a folder from the drop down menu to indicate where you want to store your Media Group. The default folder is My Groups.
  6. Click on the box next to Default Media Group if you want this new group to be your default group.
  7. Enter a description of the Media Group (this is optional).
  8. Click Save.

You may create multiple Media Groups.
