Image Gallery Help
The image gallery is your access to all mineral images catalogued in The Mineral and Gemstone Kingdom. You probably wished for a thumbnail image that takes you to a larger image of that picture, but due to practical considerations this is not possible for so many images, since the Image Gallery would take forever to load.
Instead, we have the pictlink button.
When clicked on, it takes you to the image of the selected
mineral. If you just hover your cursor over the pictlink
button, a tooltip emerges with a description of the picture.
(Hover your cursor over the pictlink button) 
After an image has been visited, the pictlink button will change color to let you know it has been clicked upon.

In the image gallery, there are different text designations for different mineral types. Each type is described below:
Regular mineral names, such as Calcite, have all letters
capitalized.
For example:
CALCITE
Synonyms have their real name in small,
capitalized, bold font in parenthesis after the name.
For example Baryte, which is a synonym of Barite, is listed
as:
BARYTE (BARITE)
Variety names that do not allude to the
true mineral have the mineral type in lowercase, bold, small
font, in parenthesis after the variety name.
For example Lodestone, a variety of Magnetite, is listed as:
LODESTONE
(Magnetite)
Variety names that do allude to the
true mineral are listed in unbold, capitalized font.
For example Dogtooth Calcite, a variety of Calcite, is listed
as:
DOGTOOTH CALCITE
