# My Gallery Images

Everything you have submitted lives under **Community → Astro PM Gallery → My Gallery Images**. It is the same grid as the public gallery, filtered to your work, and it doubles as a small dashboard: how each image is being received, who has liked it, and what people have said.

### Your Stats

Your own tiles show a **thumbs-up count** and a **view count** in the corner of the caption – a quick read on how each image is doing without opening anything. Other users never see these on your tiles; to them the grid stays clean.

Open one of your images and the same numbers appear in the blue bar under the metadata.

### Seeing Who Liked Your Image

On your own images the thumbs-up in that bar becomes a button: click it to open a scrollable list of **everyone who has liked the image**. Click any name to browse that user’s own gallery images.

This list is private to you. Other users only ever see the total count on your images – never who the individual people are.

### Activity Notifications

The bell at the right of the gallery toolbar collects everything happening on your work: **likes**, **comments** on your images, and **replies** to comments you have left. A red badge counts what is new since you last looked.

Open it for the list – newest first, with a snippet of each comment – and click any entry to jump straight to that image. **Clear** dismisses everything currently listed; anything that happens afterwards still comes through.

### Updating an Image

To change anything about a submission – a reprocessed version, a corrected filter count, a better description – open the original project and click **Update Gallery Image**. The entry is replaced in place, so it **keeps its likes, views, and comments**.

This is also how older submissions pick up newer gallery features: an image submitted before a field existed gains it the next time you update.

### Turning Comments Off

If you would rather not have discussion on your images, open **Settings** and find the **Community** section. Clear **Allow other users to comment on my gallery images** and no new comments can be posted on anything of yours. Existing comments stay visible, and likes and views are unaffected.

The same section is where you change your **display name** – the name shown on your images, comments, and likes across the whole community.

### Removing an Image

Open one of your images in the gallery and click the red **Delete** button beside the title. After a confirmation, the entry is removed for everyone.

Deleting takes the whole entry with it: all three stored versions of the image are erased from storage, along with its likes and its comment thread. The project on your own computer is untouched – your final image, exposure data, and everything else stay exactly as they were, and you can submit the project again later if you change your mind.

   **Careful:** Deletion is permanent and immediate – there is no undo and no recovery of the comments or likes an image had collected. If you only want to publish a different version, use **Update Gallery Image** on the project instead; it replaces the picture and keeps the history.
