Two ways to add image galleries to your WordPress site are currently available at blogs.evergreen.edu.

For local storage of your images

You can use the following gallery tools (remember you only have 100MB of storage space on your blogs.evergreen.edu site):

  • Use the built-in image gallery tool. See: WordPress image gallery support page
  • Enhance the built-in gallery tool with the Slim Jetpack plugin
    1. Go Plugins > Activate Slim Jetpack
    2. Go Settings > Slim Jetpack
    3. Activate Carousel
    4. Now all of your WordPress image galleries will have an full-screen overlay

For embedding cloud-based image gallery solutions

  • Awesome Flickr Gallery Quickly and easily incorporate your Flickr photos and galleries into your WordPress pages and posts.
