Selected Photos for Home Page Slideshow

I like to know how I can set up "selected" photos for viewing on my Home Page Slideshow.

Currently I have my landscape gallery linked to the slideshow. I'd like to put a represented sampling of my photos on the slideshow.

Short of uploading them into a special gallery, is there a way to sort of tag them so that I can then reference them in the slideshow ?

    You can collect the photos to a new gallery and use that. You can also give the photos a special keyword and use the keyword for for your slideshow....

    Several Questions:

    1 - What is the process used to "collect" the photos? I don't see a "copy" function; I do see a "move to gallery" function

    2- What is the term/function of "featured gallery"?

    Okay ... I've done some research through the SMHelp system and found the instructions to "collect" photos. Its the yellow circle with the plus sign inside. That's great, however I can not find that icon. I've tried the user view and the visitor view. I've tried right clicking. I just can not find it anywhere.

    Can someone tell me how to find it or get it on my screen.

    To collect a photo, just mouse over the main image in any gallery and you'll see the orange circle with the + sign appear in the flyout:

    If you feature a gallery, it will appear in the Featured Galleries section on your homepage. You can show that on your homepage by clicking Homepage Layout > Featured galleries. :D

    For some reason, I go not get that yellow circle with the plus sign in it. On mine main picture I don't get anything like that when I hover my mouse on that picture. All I see is a enlarge symbol with my mouse.

    Here is a gallery link - It doesn't matter which gallery I try to collect photos on, I can not get the "collect" icon.
