Help needed to create image gallery for users (thankyou)

Hi Gliders :smiley:

My first post, apologies in advance for being such a newbie, things are probably easier than I’m making it out to be!

I’m trying to create a gallery for users to upload there own images, In a tile-style format. But I’m not sure how to do this.

I also want it so they’re the only ones who can view the gallery/library. But have an option to share to a public library if they wish.

Next query is how to create a gallery where everyone can upload/share their pictures too.

Thank you in advance for the help. I’ve only been on glide 2 days and I’m a non-tech founder so I’m still learning the ropes.

Don’t worry about asking, Aaron! We are always ready to help!.

Regarding your questions.

You can create a new Sheet to store this “gallery”, each row will contain the owner of the image and the image link itself. Populate it with a form, using an image picker and a “signed-in user’s email” special value.

Add a “public” boolean column in the Sheet above and let users choose whether to make their image public.

Create an inline list, let’s say “Your gallery”. This will be a relation from the user profiles sheet to the Gallery sheet using the email to connect them together.

The “Public gallery” is another inline list where you can just point it to the Gallery sheet and filter by “Public” is true.
