Finding the site
Go to www.fredonia.edu/photos
There are two techniques for finding an image to support your project: browsing and searching.
Browsing the site
You may click on the image thumbnails to browse through collections of images by topic.
Each collection with a "folder" icon contains additional collections inside it to help sort and organize content by content type.
Example: I’m working on a Biology webpage and need an image of the students working on research in a lab. I would click on the thumbnail for "Academics.
And then click on the thumbnail for "College of Liberal Arts and Sciences"
And then click on "Biology"
When you reach a gallery-level group of images, you will see rows of photos with filenames and a download button under each image. You may click on the small download button to initiate the download or click on the image to enlarge it for a full screen view.
In the enlarged image view, click on the down arrow button on the top left to download the image.
You'll be presented with a field asking for the download password. (Contact a Marketing Marketing and Communications team member for the password or email phototeam@fredonia.edu.) Enter the password.
Your file will download to your computer or device.
After your download completes, click "RETURN TO GALLERY" or the "X" on the right.
To close the enlarged photo view, click the "X" at the top right, or hit the "Escape" key on your keyboard.
Browsing related images
To view more details about a photo, click on the small "i" in the top level of the window.
The filename, keywords, and image capture date will appear.
