Smart idea, much better than written headings for visual creativity, I can see several ideas and reference material all at once. Thanks.

Thanks, Pete, glad you like it. It’s a great format – I love being able to use the images so you get an idea of what the lesson is about and see all the options.

We’ve had this gallery tool for a while now and keep discovering new ways to use it. I must let our tech folks know how terrific it is!

Thanks, Cathy. You’ve also reminded me that I need to finish sorting out my lesson indexes – I still have old ones floating about, and I’ve got new material to add to this.
