Create web galleries
The Web module in Lightroom lets you create web photo galleries, which are websites that feature your photography.
In a web gallery, thumbnail versions of images link to larger versions of the photos, on the same page or on another
page.
The panels on the left side of the Web module in Lightroom contain a list of templates and previews of their page
layouts. The center pane is the image display area, which automatically updates as you make changes and lets you
navigate between the pages in your gallery. Panels on the right have controls for specifying how the photos appear in
the template layout, modifying the template, adding text to the web page, previewing the web gallery in a browser, and
specifying settings for uploading the gallery to a web server. For more details on the Web module, see
Use the Web
module panels and tools.
