Then click on “Create a New Set”.  Give it a Title and tag line.  The SET is the set of Galleries you will be creating for your client.  The SET page holds the HEro image and is the landing page for their unique URL.

2.  Add a “Hero Image”.  The “Hero Image” is the primary image that your client see when visiting their proofing gallery, so its a good idea to use an image that makes a great impact.  note: since this image is going to be presented in a large scale format, it is considered best practice to add a digital watermark to it prior to uploading.

4. Share the link to the Proofing Set.  If you are creating a proofing set of a private nature such as a wedding or portrait session you may want to share the link using the built in email generator that creates an elegant invitation for your client. If you are proofing a more public event you may choose to share the set through social media channel with the integrated sharing tool.
