PhotoGallery Folders only show PUBLIC pictures ???

Under the Folders tab, I can only see \Folders\Public Pictures\Sample Pictures.

Nothing I do allows me to add \user\users\Pictures
It returns an error stating it is hidden or under a system folder.

I've double checked the rights.
Nothing stands out.

Is this design intent ?
Thanks
Derek

Re: PhotoGallery Folders only show PUBLIC pictures ???

It looks like you've messed with the normal folder structure on your PC.

The Public pictures folder is normally located at
C:\Users\Public\Pictures

and your user pictures are normally located at
C:\Users\(youraccount)\Pictures

why are you showing "\Folders\" and "\user\users" ?

If ya can't beat 'em, join 'em !
LOL

I moved all pictures from \users\user\pictures to a legacy folder I created
called
C:\my documents\pictures
I added it just fine within Photogallery.

Time to move on...

LOL
