Update: 27th March A big thanks to darq and Jenny for adding a bunch more images and shows to the Gallery and to Adam for keeping things nicely organised. We now have over 20,000 Images and 1,400+ albums in the gallery. We have also got a Movies section which we will start to fill. The Gallery is now available from the main navigation menu at the top for easy access.

Also, we've improved the embed codes that you can use on your own site and we've also give you the ability to Facebook "Like/Recommend" individual photos. So if you see a photo you like, just the button and all your friends and family will automatically see the image on their wall.
Here is me liking The Black Rock from LOST!
Update: 26th March We've been adding a bunch more shows archive/old shows section of the gallery. We now have over 17,000 images in the Gallery. Thanks to Jenny from http://www.fractured-simplicity.net/ for helping us backfill some of the older shows.
Update: 24th March Thanks to Sasha for the idea, that we've now added a new Top Level Gallery called Pilot/New Shows which will have all the new and pilot shows.
As we teased earlier, we're pleased to announce the opening of the our very own Image Archive Gallery!
It's been probably one of the most requested features from all the great feedback people have been giving us and after a LOT of work we're please to announce that we finally after 4 years have our own gallery.
Now, before I get into how to use it, how you can embed images on your own site, it would not be fair to begin without thanking a few people who have made this possible.
First and foremost a MASSIVE thanks to our very own SpoilerTV reader, Darq, who has given up countless hours and provided us with a huge amount of his personally collected photos. A big big thanks my friend. I'd also like to thank b3rt4 for his help in uploading, as well as providing invaluable testing and info. Also, a big thanks to Adam our Community Manager here at SpoilerTV for helping configure the albums, descriptions and show icons. It's been a lot of work and without their help it would not have been possible.
Ok, lets get to the details.
1) The Gallery currently has over 13,000 Images in some 1000+ Albums! 2) This is just a fraction of what we hope to upload over the coming week/months. 3) To Access the Gallery just goto this link SpoilerTV Gallery 4) The Gallery will be added to the main menu later today. 5) All Shows are listed Alphabetically and all current/new shows will be on the Main Gallery page 6) For Cancelled/Old/Retired Shows, they can be found via the Archived/Old Show Album. It's a great way to remember some of our old favourite shows.
7) The Gallery might initially be a little slow but that is due to the number of photos we're still uploading as well as everyone clicking on the link to view it. This will improve shortly. 8) Each show we've tried to split into Seasons and also Cast Promotional and Wallpers/Posters etc 9) We hope to add other Categories to each show to include Albums such as Set Photos, Fan Art, DVD Covers etc. 10) We will also be posting all the Promotional Photos and Set Photos etc that we normally post on this gallery and this will allow you to copy the images very easily for posting onto your own site/blog. When you are on an album which shows all the Thumbnails, at the bottom of this screen is the embed code that you can simply copy and paste onto your site.
10) Remember this is an ongoing exercise and we hope to continue to add new content. If you see a show missing or photos missing this is to be expected. 11) We're still updating some of the artwork for the Show logos on each page but this again will be an ongoing thing. 12) You can search for a show, actor, character and it should return where possible the Albums that they are in
13) Also, at the bottom of the screen is a link to the Archive View, this is not the same as the Archived/Old Shows above but tries to list all photos by Year/Date taken.
14) You can also subscribe to any Album, Sub-Albums RSS feed to obtain updates when new photos are added to the album. The RSS Feed link is displayed at the bottom of the page next to the Archive View link as shown above.
Please let us know in the comments what you think of this new feature and if you have any suggestions we'd love to hear them in the comments below. Also if you find any errors please let us know in the comments.
Love it! Easy to get to and even in alphabetical order by show title. What a bonus! Thank you! This way we can look at the great pictures posted whenever we want to!
Thanks Keith, glad you like it. We hope this will become a great resource for people looking for images. If you have any ideas etc about how we can improve it, please let us know.
Is it possible that the second option in the poll above should be 'No - but willing to learn' or 'No - but will learn'? :D Great idea though, it'll be a great resource.
So amazing! Now I can find all my favorite tv show promos in one place. I love making graphics for my fandoms so this really helps. Thanks to everyone who made this possible! And I will definitely share any promos I have lying around on my hard drive :)
Wooow :O! That's a HUGE feature. I'll probably be playing with it for the next few hours :P. When do you guys have time to do all of this XD? So impressed. Thanks!
Awesome! Thanks Sasha. Every unique Promo photo helps the site become the biggest and most complete (or one of) TV series photo galleries online! Wow.... that sounds impressive when I say it like that, but it is.... and it's only hours old!
You will notice a direct correlation between my time put into the gallery this last week or so and the amount of posts in the forum..... I have been relatively silent here... Until Now! BWAAAH HAHA HAHA HAAHAA * maniacal laughter*
There was a tiny possibility that I was gonna sit on my butt and study tonight...You just killed it! ; ) This is so great!Thank you so much! I am literally drooling over the Supernatural wallpapers!And you have pictures about old shows as well..I'll bring my tissues and start watching the ones from Alias and BSG! Thank you for working so hard for this!You guys are awesome!
Well I would be willing to be it has more LOST photos, Boston Legal , Veronica Mars than any other site.... and will have the most Arrested Development photos once I am done adding them, too!
I just noticed that there is no tag for "photos" or anything like that. In light of this new gallery, you should definitely add the label to accommodate the large number of "BTS/Promo Photo" posts :D!
I used to spend a decent amount of time searching for full cast promo photos to use as my desktop background. While not terribly difficult to find, most "official" sites only had a small portion of the complete collection.
For example, a lot of the LOST S1 promo stuff is hard to come by. There are a few images that are REALLY popular and google images/official sites simply bury the rest. I think I may even have a few LOST S2 promo photos that we have yet to put up.
How are we going to go about making this as complete an archive as possible? Are we scouring all other limited show archives and grabbing photos?
I think trying to make it as complete as possible is not a bad idea at all. It really is hard to find complete collections for seasonal promo photos like you said.
I've been collecting some shows for years and that was my entire purpose for contributing when Dark asked me. Some shows you find HQ photos all in series and others you hunt for years to find 2 or 3 LQ slightly larger than thumbnail pictures and you're happy because the pictures can be that rare. Some things are still being worked out like watermarks allowed or not, quality limitations etc. I guess in a perfect world we would have no watermarks and all Hi-Res photos, but unless you have studio connections, promotional photos can be hard to find sometimes.... any size, watermarked or not.
If more people contribute their photos then maybe this gallery will make it THAT much easier for one stop shopping for all TV fans picture needs! Feel free to fill out the form above or drop Dark an e-mail and he will set you up with your own uploader folder to add to the ever-growing SpoilerTV Gallery. So if you have photos missing from the collections here let us know.
PS. Pretty impressive to have LOST photos not in the collection since there are something over 2,000 there already!
Related to full cast photos... don't ou find it annoying that so many shows use "quasi-full cast" shots as their promos? By that I mean if you look closely the case was not shot together at all. It's just individual shots layered on a background. I guess it probably makes sense from a photographer's standpoint, it's easier to get a good shot of one actor than it is getting 10 good shots of 10 actors at once... but still. It irks me....
That's why so many of LOST's season 1 shots were so cool The entire cast on the beach, or some rock outcroppings in the water. Made for great photos even if they were not all looking directly at the camera at the given moment.
Yeah absolutely! I know exactly what you mean. Sometimes, the photoshipping is decently done, so the whole single photos added together thing isn't a huge deal. Unfortunately, more often than not, they just don't look real.
Thanks for the shout, Dark! Currently uploading a ton of 24 photos. For a few hours now. That's how many there are! Will be adding even more when those are done. :)
Awesome! Thanks for th work and uploads!! I felt like I did it forever when I uploaded Supernatural Photos ... I can't imagine how Dark felt doing all those LOST photos!
Awesome Greek pics. I have a lot of those but not HiRes. I was trying to sort them out and figure what season they were from since I saved most of them after the fact and they use pictures from all 4 seasons shoots on their DVD covers. It irks me as well as confuses me! :)
Added a handful of new Game of Thrones Promo Stills t the Photo Gallery. The first official promo pics of Khal Drogo, Arya Stark with her wooden practice sword,Arya with a torch, and King Robert. Jason Momoa looks BAD ASS as Drogo!!!!
V is awesome but I think the main person played better in LOST. (Lost's Juliet) but still I really love V! And I'm excited for the next season. Does anyone know what exact date it comes out on?
Boston Legal season 3. Jeffrey Coho seated on the right is so obvious a 'shopped job. BBC Being Human series 3 has the same George in 2 different photos and he is too big in both. He should be 2 inches SHORTER than Mitchell... not 2 inches taller.
Who said the TV Gods weren't listening! THANK YOU !!!! Wow you guys,this is truly awesome,i feel like a kid in the candy store,i can't decide what to look at second,first is FRINGE of course! Thanks again everyone this is truly beautiful,i do feel like i am in a art gallery,one in which i can afford,HA! What a blast this is!! ) :) :D

Sweet idea. When will the new banner be revealed?
ReplyDeleteHopefully in a few days.

ReplyDeleteI don't think it makes much difference :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it ;)
Lol...I agree that neither of mine make much difference, but the one on the poll currently says 'No - but will to learn.'
ReplyDeleteIs Hitler telling me MY COUNTRY NEEDS ME!?
ReplyDeleteO.o

I might just break out the photoshop in celebration!!!!! Fringe+SPN fangraphics all around! :)

ReplyDeleteHa lol
ReplyDeleteIt's Kitchener fyi
Thanks Janneke
ReplyDeleteThis makes me very, very happy :)
ReplyDeleteBetween SpoilerTV and Superwiki I have very little need for any other Supernatural site now.
Thanks jillyanne, that's very kind of you!
ReplyDeleteIf you have any images to add let us know! I think my collection is fairly inclusive, but I doubt it is complete :)
ReplyDeleteSo amazing! Now I can find all my favorite tv show promos in one place. I love making graphics for my fandoms so this really helps. Thanks to everyone who made this possible! And I will definitely share any promos I have lying around on my hard drive :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Sasha, that's great. We hope at some point in the future have
ReplyDeletesections for fan created images as well.
Ohhh....Thank you!
ReplyDeleteWooow :O! That's a HUGE feature. I'll probably be playing with it for the next few hours :P. When do you guys have time to do all of this XD? So impressed. Thanks!

ReplyDeleteLol! Indeed, I had noticed :P. Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteThanks :)
ReplyDeleteThanks John.
ReplyDeleteYep, it's been a lot of work but actually been fun working closely
with the team and new team member Darq!
It's been a great team effort.
Let's hope so :)
ReplyDeleteLOL, no back to normal business :)
ReplyDeleteThere was a tiny possibility that I was gonna sit on my butt and study tonight...You just killed it! ; )

ReplyDeleteHey Kat, that's an awesome comment.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit that I had a tear in my eye as I was going through the
2000 LOST photos. Bought back many happy memories :)
I have to admit, I've never really searched for other TV Galleries.
ReplyDeleteMost of them are very show specific/orientated
Right. Some may have more (for now) of a single seres than your gallery, but not as a TV site collection in general that I have seen.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a look around tomorrow :) But I think you maybe right!
ReplyDeleteOh this is a great addition :)
ReplyDeleteNice one! Very cool idea, and great to have a central area to refer to for images. :D
ReplyDeleteCheers pheral
ReplyDeleteAnything to contribute to the delinquency of students. It may be twisted, but I quite fond of being a corruptive influence on people.
ReplyDeleteWow the gallery must be a hit. The site hiccuped!
ReplyDeleteawesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI just noticed that there is no tag for "photos" or anything like that. In light of this new gallery, you should definitely add the label to accommodate the large number of "BTS/Promo Photo" posts :D!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea! Enjoying the gallery so far?
ReplyDeleteI really am!
