Help Using the Bahá'í Media Bank
How to use the Media Bank: |
Please note: If you are having any difficulty with viewing or downloading images, please check that you have both javascript and cookies enabled on your browser. Both of these are requirements in order to use this site correctly. |
Baha'i Media Bank allows users to view and download images in high resolution versions. Although any one can browse for photos, you will need to create an account in order to download the high resolution images. |
To browse for images, select a category from the menu: |
 |
When you find an image you would like to see more detail on, click the "Image Details" link: |
 |
When you have found an image you want to download, click the "Add to Downloads" link: |
 |
If you have not created an account - or logged into the site for this session, you'll be sent to the account page: If you have already created an account, simply log in with your email address and password: |

Once you have logged in, you'll notice that two things are now different. 1. The first thing is the top menu bar. Instead of the username and password fields, it says that you are logged in. It also allows you to log out or view the previous downloads you have done. This allows you to review previous downloads and re-download the files if necessary. 2. The second change is the addition of a "Your Downloads" panel. Each time you add another file to download, this panel will update and keep track of the images you want to download. You can have up to 20 files at one time before you need to complete the download process. You can then return to the site and download additional files. |
 |
When you add an image into Your Download bin, you'll see the number increment, and the link above the image will change from "Add to Downloads" to "Remove from Downloads". Click this link at any time and it will remove the file from Your Downloads bin. If at any time you want to remove a file from Your Downloads, click on the "Your Downloads" button and you can review and remove any images you no longer wish to download: |
 |
When you are ready to download the images, click the "Proceed to Download" button in Your Download bin. On this screen you can review all of your images and remove those you no longer want. When you are ready to download the files, fill in the form - making sire to agree to the terms of use, and click the "Proceed to Download" button: |
 |
The Media Bank will then place all of you images into one zip file for you to download. Please note that this may take more time depending on the number and size of images you want to download. After the system has created the download file, you will see this page and will also be prompted to download the zip file. Once you have completed this step, you can go back to the site and continue getting more images. |
