# Switching from Pic-Time to CoreHue > Considering a Pic-Time alternative for photographers? How Pic-Time terms map to CoreHue, what moves over, the honest differences, and your first week. Source: https://help.corehue.co/docs/switching/from-pic-time/ If you're moving gallery delivery from Pic-Time, start by setting up a CoreHue gallery and testing the client experience. You can then connect delivery with bookings, contracts and invoices in the same account. The honest headline first: CoreHue has no print store. If automated print sales are central to your income, read the section on what you'd give up before going further. ## What it's called in CoreHue | In Pic-Time | In CoreHue | Good to know | | --- | --- | --- | | Gallery | [Gallery](/docs/galleries/how-galleries-work) | Same idea: photos and videos on one private link. | | Scene | [Chapter](/docs/galleries/organizing-with-chapters) | Every gallery starts with one called **Featured**. | | Favorites | [Collections](/docs/gallery-favorites/how-favorites-work) | Clients star photos into named collections and send them to you. | | Gallery theme and design | [Layout tab](/docs/galleries/customizing-gallery-design) | 14 cover layouts, 14 typography sets and 9 color palettes, with desktop and mobile preview. | | Gallery password | [Gallery password](/docs/gallery-sharing/password-protecting-a-gallery) | Plus a separate private [client password](/docs/gallery-sharing/client-access-and-private-passwords) for the person the photos belong to. | | Email registration | Email registration | Visitors give their email before viewing, and you see who on the **Activity** tab. | | Digital downloads | [Download settings](/docs/gallery-downloads/download-settings) | Choose original or web sizes, turn downloads on per chapter, and use a 4-digit PIN. | | Slideshow | [Slideshow](/docs/galleries/client-experience-settings) | Plays the photos in the chapter being viewed. | | Video | [Gallery video](/docs/gallery-video/video-in-galleries) | On Plus and Pro, streamed at the right quality for each screen. | | Print store and automated sales | Nothing | No print store, cart, lab integration or sales automation. | | Client emails | [Messages](/docs/messages/how-messages-work) and [reminders](/docs/account/automatic-reminders) | Real conversations with clients, and automatic chasing for invoices and documents. | CoreHue also covers the business side you might be running in other tools: [online booking](/docs/online-booking/how-online-booking-works), [contracts](/docs/contracts/how-contracts-work), [proposals](/docs/proposals/how-proposals-work), [invoices](/docs/invoices/how-invoices-work), [questionnaires](/docs/questionnaires/how-questionnaires-work) and [contact forms](/docs/contact-forms/creating-a-contact-form). ## What moves over, and how There's no importer, so you move what's still in use and leave the rest. **Galleries.** Download the photos from each Pic-Time gallery you still need, then [create a gallery](/docs/galleries/creating-a-gallery) and upload them. Upload each scene into its own chapter to keep the structure. CoreHue accepts JPEG and PNG photos up to 100 MB each, and RAW files on Pro. **Videos.** On Plus and Pro, upload MP4, MOV, M4V or AVI files up to 20 GB each. See [Video limits by plan](/docs/gallery-video/video-limits-by-plan). **Clients.** Add the ones you're actively working with in [Contacts](/docs/contacts/adding-a-contact). Everyone else arrives as they inquire or book. **Your price list.** Save your packages as [items](/docs/payments/saved-items) for invoices and proposals. **Print orders in progress.** Let them finish on Pic-Time. ## What CoreHue does differently **Galleries connected to the rest of the job.** Link a gallery to a contact and it sits on their page next to their booking, contract and invoices. See [Linking a gallery to your contacts](/docs/galleries/linking-galleries-to-contacts). **Fine-grained privacy.** Keep chapters for your client only, hide chapters from everyone, and let your client hide photos from guests. See [Who can see your gallery](/docs/gallery-sharing/who-can-see-your-gallery). **Guided proofing.** Send a [selection request](/docs/gallery-favorites/requesting-client-selections) like Album picks or Retouch list, with a brief and a photo limit. **Getting booked and paid, not just delivering.** Clients can book a session, sign your contract and pay a deposit in one go, and you can send invoices with payment schedules and card payments through Stripe. ## What you'd give up **Print and product sales.** Clients can't buy prints, albums or digital files from a CoreHue gallery, and there are no sales campaigns. When a client wants prints, you can collect their picks with a **Print order** selection request, send an [invoice](/docs/invoices/creating-an-invoice) and order from your lab. That works, but it's more hands-on than an automated store. If print revenue matters a lot to you, keep a print-sales tool alongside CoreHue rather than expecting one to replace the other. See [What CoreHue doesn't do (yet)](/docs/getting-started/what-corehue-doesnt-do). ## Your first week **Day 1.** [Create your account](/docs/getting-started/creating-your-account), add your business details and logo, and set your default currency. **Day 2.** Rebuild one recent gallery: upload, organize into chapters, then design it on the **Layout** tab and pick a cover. **Day 3.** Work through the gallery's **Settings** tabs: Sharing, Access, Downloads and Collections. The download PIN is on until you turn it off. **Day 4.** Publish it, share it with yourself, and open the link in a private window to see your client's view. **Day 5.** Adapt a starter contract, save your items, connect payments and send yourself an invoice you actually pay. **Then.** Deliver your next job through CoreHue from the start. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is CoreHue a good Pic-Time alternative for photographers?
