Welcome to SlickPic. Let’s take a look at some of the features and tools that SlickPic offers.
Dashboard
Your Dashboard gives you an overview of everything happening in your account, including your likes, comments and the activity of photographers you follow.
Organizer
Your Organizer is where you upload albums and photos. It’s also where you create sub-albums and collections.
Here you control every aspect of those albums and photos, including creating watermarks, changing the visibility of an album and sharing your photos.
Think of the Organizer as the engine that powers the gallery behind the scenes.
Gallery
The Gallery is the finished product of your photos. Here you’ll be able to see every album that you’ve uploaded.
Navigate between your albums and inspect the photos to see how they look. Switch between Owner View – where you will see all albums and photos that you have uploaded – and Visitor View where you will see your photos as your guests see them.
If you have Private or Unlisted albums, they will not be displayed in the Visitor View.
Website
This is the portal for your own personal website. You can build a website portfolio to display your photographs using sleek, ready-made templates – no coding required!
Themes can be customized by selecting what features you’d like to add to your website. For example, site pages, text boxes, buttons or other custom elements.
Now that we’ve looked at the main features of SlickPic, let’s look at some of the other tools and functionality.
Privacy Customization
Go to your album and select Customize Album. Here you can set all kinds of custom privacy limitations. There’s a visibility setting for each of your albums. In addition, you can change album appearance, privacy, enable or disable features, plus many other things. You can apply these settings to all photos in your album.
To Share an Album, click Add Privacy. This allows you to modify the privacy settings you already set for this album and apply them to a specific share. For example, imagine you have an unlisted or private album that you created for a client. In this album you have not allowed album downloads and have set the photos to download in a small size. When you share the album with the client, you can allow them to download the album with the photos in their original size, whilst maintaining the stricter settings that you have on the album that you have saved in your account.
SlickPics privacy settings cater for all possible privacy needs; from creating a disappearing album, to managing how many users may view a link to hiding the path back to your gallery.

Watermarks
Another great SlickPic feature is the watermark. This can be used to add your name or branding to a photo, or to prevent unauthorized use of your photos.
The watermark features can be applied or removed from the picture with one click. There’s no waiting for uploads to appear, just switch the toggle on or off.
You can use watermarks presets or create your watermarks on the fly.
Add borders to give your photos a frame and place the artists signature on the photos or on the border.

Group Albums
Sometimes you have events, such as a wedding, or a birthday party, where lots of people are taking photos, and you want to add all of these to the same album. You can do this with Group Albums.
You can add up to 1000 collaborators, each of whom can contribute up to 1000 photos to each of your shared albums.
You can invite your guests via email, a social media link or via a QR code. Then, your guests can upload their photos from their computer or send them to an email address, so that all of your photos of the event are in one place, where everyone can see them displayed in high quality.
