Use Qbanks Moodboard for image delivery
This is a guide on how to work with Moodboard in the image storage system QBank.
When you create a moodboard in QBank you create a platform where you gather files on a temporary page and make it easy to spread images between yourself and a photographer. This is how it works:
- Create a moodboard (empty platform) and send the link to the photographer.
- The photographer uses the moodboard-link to upload the images you have agreed on.
- You will get a notification (email) when the images are uploaded and can easily access the images and save them to the QBank library and the different publish sites.
