Importing Portraits Without an index file

Portrait photos may be imported without a database package. Information describing the portraits (first & last name, grade, teacher name, job roles) may  be manually entered after importing the images.  To add one or more photos to your portrait database, click on Manage portraits in the left-side menu.

Next, at the prompt, check out your book.  Note that your team members cannot edit pages until the book is checked back in.

Click on Import Photos on the top menu.

Click on the upload icon to navigate to the folder(s) on your system which hold the portraits. Multi-select all images (Ctrl+A on Windows, Cmd+A on Mac) to add all files within a folder at once. You can also drag the photos (one folder at a time, if applicable) to the upload icon.

The images will begin uploading immediately.  

After uploading, click on View Portraits to see your Portrait database, then add information to the new portraits so they will be sorted and labelled on portrait pages.

Next step: add information to your portrait database, then assign roles for easy panel-making.
