Boards, Media Library & Stock

How to manage boards and your image/video library in Framo — create and open boards, save your work, upload and organise media, pull in free stock photos, and move media onto the board.

Home

Home is your base. Open it from the Home button in the left rail; clicking it again while you are on Home shows every kind at once, the newest of each in one row, in the same order as the panel. From an editor, the Home button and the Framo logo open the section that lists what that editor edits: Boards from the Board, Composites from the 2D Editor, 3D Scenes from the 3D Editor, and Timelines from the video editor. Its panel lists every place in your library under three headings:

  • Files: what you edit, each in its own editor, the way a PSD or a .blend file is: Boards, Composites (layered images made in the 2D editor), Timelines (cuts made in the video editor), and 3D Scenes (scenes made in the 3D Editor). A file's icon wears a file outline.
  • Assets: what you use inside your files, read-only: Images, Videos, 3D Models, Skills and Agents (marked Beta, and locked on plans that don't include them), and LoRAs, the styles you trained. An asset's icon is drawn bare.
  • Folders: your folders, tags and Quick Access (see below).
  • Shared: when you belong to an organisation, its shared library, under its logo.
  • Bin: at the very bottom: everything you deleted, for 30 days.

Your account is not in Home. At the foot of the left rail sit the settings gear and your avatar; the avatar's menu has Account settings, which opens the settings on your account page.

Boards

A board (called a project until September 2026) is one infinite node workspace on the canvas. Each board lives in Home's Boards section. A 3D model on a board is a node like any other, and is listed under Home's 3D Models too.

To create a board: in Boards, click the New board card at the start of the grid. This opens it, empty, on the Board.

To open an existing board: in Boards, double-click its card (or use its ⋯ menu / right-click → Open). Inside the editor you can also press Ctrl+O to open the board picker.

To rename a board: right-click the card (or ⋯ menu) → Rename, or double-click the board name on the card. Press Enter to confirm, Esc to cancel.

To delete a board: right-click the card (or ⋯ menu) → Move to Bin. It is not erased immediately (see below).

To find a board: type in the search box ("Search boards by name or description..."). Filter with the All / Shared / On Drops badges. Card size, layout and whether names show under the cards are in the View menu in the toolbar.

Each board card also has Share Options for sharing/publishing — see Sharing, public viewer & Drops.

Saving

The board saves itself about a second after you stop editing, and at once when the browser tab is hidden. There is no save command: the board menu has no Save Board, and Ctrl+S does nothing. Closing or switching a board saves it first. A save that fails is tried again by itself.

The same goes for every editor in Framo: each one saves by itself, and none has a save command. When a save is not landing (you are offline, it keeps failing, someone saved the same file elsewhere first, or it was refused), a small notice in the bottom-left corner of the page says so and stays until the save lands. A failing save retries by itself, and the notice has Try now. Closing the tab while anything is unsaved makes the browser ask first.

Media Library (Images & Videos)

Your generated, rendered, and uploaded media live in Home's Images and Videos sections (3D models have their own 3D Models section).

Each section gives you:

  • Search — the search box finds media by the words on it (its name, note, prompt and the model that made it) and by what its picture shows. It searches the whole library, on the phone as well. Two buttons inside the box search another way: search by image (then click a picture to find ones like it) and search by colour (pick a colour to see pictures with that colour in them; it narrows word and image searches too). The picked colour shows at the left of the box; click it to remove it.
  • Filter badges — All, plus for images: Upscaled, AI Generated, Rendered, Uploaded, Favorites; for videos: AI Generated, Uploaded, Favorites. Each badge shows a live count.
  • Filter by board — click the Board chip in the badge row to show only one board's media.
  • Sort and group — the sort menu orders the tiles, and its Group by part groups them by None, Date or Board.
  • View — the View menu sets the tile size, the layout (Waterfall, Justified rows, Grid or List) and whether names and sizes show under the tiles.

Folders, tags and Quick Access

The library sidebar holds your folders and tags. An item can sit in any number of both.

  • To tag or file a selection: select tiles, then press T to open the tag picker or F to open the folder picker (or use the pickers in the info panel). Type to find one, or to create it.
  • Starred and recent tags: the tag picker lists your starred tags first, then the tags you used most recently, then the rest. Hover a tag in the picker and click its star to star it.
  • Quick Access: right-click a folder or tag in the sidebar → Add to Quick Access to keep it at the top of the sidebar. Drop media onto a Quick Access entry to file it there.

To favourite media: hover a tile and click its heart; it fills red. Favourites are filterable with the Favorites badge.

To find pictures like one: right-click it → Find similar. The results show on that item's own page (an image's on Images, a video's on Videos).

To open media full-size: double-click a tile.

To download an image: right-click → Download (or the tile's ⋯ menu).

Uploading

To upload images: in Images, click the Upload image card at the start of the grid, then drop files onto the dialog or click to browse. You can upload up to 20 at once; files over 3MB are auto-compressed and large images downscaled to 2048px.

To upload a video: in Videos, click the Upload video card → Choose Video File, then Upload Video. Max 256MB; mp4/webm/avi/mov/mkv.

Uploading needs a plan or credits. Without either, the upload cards are locked.

Deleting & bulk delete

To delete one item: hover a tile → ⋯ menu (or right-click) → Move to Bin.

To bulk-delete: click a tile to select it, then Shift-click another to add the run between them (a plain click selects only the tile you click). Right-click a selected tile → Move N selected to Bin. Press Esc or click empty space to clear the selection.

Deleting moves items to the bin — it doesn't erase them right away.

Bin (deleted items)

Open Bin in the left sidebar to see everything you deleted, of every kind, most recently deleted first. Narrow it with the same badges the whole library shows (Upscaled, AI Generated, Rendered, Uploaded, Composites, Favorites), or type in the search box to find a deleted item by its name, note or prompt.

Each page has the same bin as a filter: on Boards, 3D Models, Images, Composites, Videos, Agents or Skills, turn on the In bin badge to see only that page's deleted items. The page's other badges and filters narrow it the same way. Items are automatically deleted after 30 days.

  • Restore: right-click a tile → Restore, or select tiles and press Restore in the info panel.
  • Delete forever: right-click a tile → Delete forever, or use the info panel (irreversible).
  • Empty bin: the button above the grid permanently deletes everything in that page's bin.
  • LoRAs have no bin: deleting a LoRA is permanent.

Stock Images (Unsplash + Pexels)

Framo can search free stock photos from Unsplash and Pexels and save them straight into your library.

To browse stock: open the Add Image dialog (in the editor's image picker), then switch the top tab from My Images to Image Library. Search across both providers in the Search Unsplash + Pexels... box, and narrow to one source with the All / Pexels / Unsplash chips.

To save stock photos: click photos to select them, then Add Selected (N). They import into your library (and onto the board when opened from the board), and the dialog closes — picking is the end of the flow, so you land back on the board with your images.

Moving Media Between Library and Board

Inside the editor, the floating media panel (the library on the board) shows a unified feed of your images, videos, and 3D models together.

  • Search generations, filter by Favorites / Images / Videos / 3D Models / Composites, and filter by board via the Board chip.
  • Toggle between single and grid view with the layout button.
  • Double-click a tile to open it full-size.

To put media on the board: drag a tile from the media panel onto the board. Images, videos, and 3D models can all be dragged in.

To add media via the picker: when a tool asks for an image (e.g. image-to-image, reference, inpaint), the Add Image dialog opens — pick from My Images, filter by This Board / Favorites / AI Generated / Uploaded / Upscaled, upload a new file, or grab a stock photo (see above).

Generated images carry a Go to Board link in their tile menu that jumps back to the board they were made on.

Textures (for 3D)

On the board, a 3D model node takes no textures: its look is set from its toolbar, with MatCap for a quick shaded look, Background and Lighting. In the 3D Editor, a mesh's material takes image textures in the Object tab, and Paint paints its base colour texture.
