This page is about the Gallery Tag. For other uses, feel free to search for it.

The gallery is an organized list of thumbnail images with captions. A gallery tag basically consists of four components. They are as follows:

1. <gallery> - This is the opening tag to indicate to the Wiki you are starting a gallery.
2. Image:example.gif|Example Image Caption - This line consists of two components of the Gallery feature.
   1. The first part of it ‘Image:example.gif’ is the link to the image uploaded on AboutUs or on a remote server. Our example.gif image is uploaded to the server (which makes things easier).
   2. Now the ‘|’ is a segment breaker/separator.
   3. The ‘Example Image Caption’ can be anything you want, it is a caption to the image. WikiLinks work here.
3. </gallery> - This is the closing tag to indicate to the Wiki you are finished with the gallery.

You can use the following code:

<gallery>
Image:example.gif
Image:Example2.gif
Image:example3.gif
</gallery>
