# Media gallery
Every image, video, and file you share on DevPlace is collected in one place: the **Media** tab on
your profile. Whatever you attach to a post, project, gist, comment, direct message, bug report, or
news item shows up here automatically, newest first, so you never have to hunt through old posts to
find something you uploaded.
## Where to find it
Open any profile and choose the **Media** tab, or go straight to
`/profile/{{ uname }}?tab=media`. The gallery is public: just like the Posts, Projects, and Gists
tabs, anyone can browse a member's media.
## Viewing media
The gallery is a responsive grid of thumbnails that adapts from a wide multi-column layout on the
desktop down to a comfortable single column on a phone.
- **Images** show as thumbnails. Click one to open it full size in the lightbox; click the
backdrop, press `Escape`, or use the close button to dismiss it.
- **Videos** play inline with standard controls.
- **Other files** (PDFs, archives, code, audio) appear as a labelled card showing the file name and
size, and download when clicked.
Each tile links back to the post, project, or gist the media belongs to, so you can jump from a
thumbnail to the place it was shared. Long galleries are split into numbered pages.
## Deleting your own media
Hover (or tap) a tile you uploaded and a delete button appears. Confirm, and the item is removed
from your Media tab and from anywhere it was shown, including the original post or project. You can
only delete media you uploaded yourself.
You can also ask the Devii assistant to do it for you, for example:
> Delete the screenshot I attached to my last post.
Devii shows you exactly which file it will remove and asks you to confirm before deleting.
