Progress photos
The project gallery serves two purposes: keeping your internal documentation of the work (for you and your crew) and showing the client selected progress shots if they have access to the project's public preview.
Adding photos
Open the project, go to the Gallery tab, and click Add photos. You can:
- Drag files from your computer into the gallery dropzone.
- Click the dropzone and pick files from disk.
Supported formats: JPG, PNG, WEBP. You can upload several photos at once.
After upload, the photos land in the project gallery.
Default visibility: private
Every newly uploaded photo is private by default — visible only to you and your crew in the Bulido dashboard. The client won't see it in the public project link until you change its visibility yourself.
That's a safeguard. You have time to look through and pick which photos are worth sharing with the client (a finished milestone, say) and which stay internal (a defect, or a before-shot you don't want shared).
Switching visibility to public
Each photo in the gallery has a visibility toggle:
- Public: the photo appears in the gallery on the project's public link (assuming you've shared the link with the client).
- Private: stays only in the dashboard — the client can't see it.
You can switch back and forth at any time. Bulido shows a toast: "The photo is now public." or "The photo is now private.".
Deleting photos
Each photo has a Delete photo action. Deletion is immediate and irreversible — there's no trash bin to recover from.
Good practice
- Take a lot, share the best. Better to keep broad internal documentation and show the client the 5–10 best shots.
- Mark milestones. After each completed stage (demo, install, paint), upload 2–3 photos and set them to public.
- Avoid sensitive shots. The exterior of the home, documents, faces of people — default to private unless you have a reason to share.
