Open from the Gallery

The Gallery stores thumbnails of your pictures to help you locate them easily. Use the Gallery to catalog and then locate pictures that are stored on your hard drive, CDs, ZIP drives, and other removable media. After you've added picture information to the Gallery, you can search for pictures by browsing through the thumbnail categories, or by searching on a word from a description you add.
