Bye Bye Lightboxes, Say Hello to iStock Boards
iStock have recently introduced Boards as a new way to manage your stock files. Boards are replacing their good old lightboxes and allow you to showcase, share, comment and manage photos, vectors, illustrations and videos in a more easy and convenient way.
Thanks to new features in terms of workflow and team collaboration, Boards are thus an enhancement of the old lightboxes.
