Sparqube Picture Column is simple and intuitive component for uploading and displaying images in SharePoint lists.

Adding image to SharePoint list is as simple as selecting image from disk and clicking Upload button, all other steps will be done without any further manual interventions:

• Images are automatically linked with items;
• Large images are automatically resized to reduce image size;
• Images of rarely-used formats like TIFF or BMP are automatically converted to more web-friendly formats like JPEG or PNG;
• Thumbnails shown in list views are automatically generated and associated with full-size image;
• Item display form will show images with predefined size limit.

Sparqube Picture Column is everything what "Hyperlink or Picture" column should be. There is no need to upload pictures to image library manually, copy and put image link into URL textbox of "Hyperlink or Picture" column of an item. Simply choose desired images on your computer and upload them.

New unique features allow attaching multiple pictures to one list item, easily manage them by intuitive UI and display them in jQuery lightbox which makes IU experience even more than pleasant. Lightbox can run in carousel mode similar to picture slideshow. Text description can be added to each picture, and it will be shown in lightbox along the picture.

With popularity growth of social networking and using SharePoint as public-facing Internet portal platform there is the need to share images with friends, colleagues and business partners. Sparqube Picture Column achieves such goals by leveraging AddThis services to add transparent sharing functionality.
