# Pair a Gallery

#### Understanding Galleries and Presets

A **gallery** manages the online space where guests can view and share their photos post-event. While **presets** and **galleries** complement each other, they serve unique functions:

* **Presets** dictate the booth's appearance and behavior.
* **Galleries** determine where photos are stored and displayed online.

***

#### Pairing Presets with Galleries

Every preset requires a linked gallery for photo collection and sharing. When configuring a preset, you can choose to create a [new gallery](/customization-guide/basic-setup/pair-a-gallery/create-a-new-gallery.md) or link an [existing one](/customization-guide/basic-setup/pair-a-gallery/use-an-existing-gallery.md). This selection impacts how attendees access their photos post-event.

**Customization Options**

* Customize gallery appearance and privacy settings.
* Higher-tier plans offer more customization features.

**Additional Notes**

* The preset list indicates the gallery linked to each preset.
* Each gallery lists all associated presets.
* You can creatively reuse presets and galleries if needed for unique scenarios.

## **Avoiding Photo Mix-ups**

* Photos are tied to the preset, not directly to the gallery.
* Changing the gallery on a preset gives you the option to move all associated photos to the new gallery.
* Avoid reusing presets for new events by merely changing galleries. Instead, duplicate the preset to retain past event photos while preparing for a new event.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.simplebooth.com/customization-guide/basic-setup/pair-a-gallery.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
