  6. A “Workspace” is a way for you to build image collections so you can see your chosen media from a variety of folders stored in one convenient location. You cannot download files from this page, you must view each file separately to do that.
    • Pro tip: The “Workspace” allows the storage of images that are of special interest. Any image can be added to the Workspace. Comments can be left on an individual image, or on the entire Workspace. The Workspace feature is a great option when researching images for a project. Users can easily share the Workspace with their colleagues.
