Canvass is an interactive web portal that enables users to register and create an account for image sharing. The registered users can upload images they would like other users to see, browse images uploaded by others, search images based on keywords and view a comprehensive list of their own files. An attractive Javascript image gallery is available to view thumbnails as well as original sized images.
