What is a lightbox?

A Lightbox is a word we use to describe a collection of photos created by a user. Anyone can make a Lightbox and they can be public or private.

There are a few other uses for Lightboxes too. For example,

  • You can download several photos from a Lightbox at one time
  • You can send an invite to a friend to show them your Lightbox
  • You can copy or move selected photos between Lightboxes
  • You can work on and rename your Lightbox
  • You can delete your Lightbox and start from scratch
  • You can use Lightboxes to categorize your photos into a series. This group of photos is noted on your Photo Detail page.
  • You can publish Lightboxes and share your collection with other users.
