About User Galleries

User galleries on Twitter aggregate the images you've uploaded in your Tweets into an organized page where you can view all of your most recent images. The images included in user galleries can come from TwitteryFrogTwitPic, Instagram and other image sharing services supported in Twitter's details pane.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What are the technical limitations of User Galleries?

  • User galleries will display up to 100 most recent images in your Tweets, in chronological order.
  • Video thumbnails will not be included. Tweets with video links will not be included in user galleries.
  • Images in Tweets will not be displayed if the Tweet was sent before January 1, 2010.

How do I navigate User Galleries:

User galleries can be found on an individual users' Profile page. Clicking on View All will open the user gallery in your current window. View galleries in grid view or in details view, as shown below. 

How do I remove an image?

Delete the Tweet that contains the image; it should be removed from your timeline and your user gallery.

  • Note: If your image is being hosted on a third party service such as yFrog or TwitPic and you delete the Tweet the image will be removed from your user gallery. If you'd like the image removed from the third party service you'll need to manually delete it from there as well.

How do I get my images included in user galleries?

Your photos will automatically be included in your user gallery. Please note the technical limitations at the top of this article.

  • Note: If you copy and paste someone else's image (we call this a manual Retweet) into a Tweet the image will appear in your user gallery. The image will not appear in your user gallery if you use the Retweet button.

Why are some images black?

Some images will appear black if our content partner's servers are overloaded. Be patient, they'll return shortly!
