What are Collections?


Collections allow us to collect content on the site and organize them into personal folders and collection sets.

When logged in, you can access your collection management by clicking "My Collections" in the top right of most pages.

How to SHARE Collections with community

🪼 So I may have found an alternative solution to accessing & creating new collections:
  1. Go to your profile and select " View all collections" under the public collections widget.
  2. Select the "Diamonds" or "Favorites" tab and the "My Collections" should be at the bottom.
🪼 I've provided screenshots in the link below:

let me know if the photos aren't working, happy gaming! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)
