All shared images state hidden on the bottom why?

So I shared informative screenshots to my community discussions, and when I scroll to the bottom I see "03-14-2023 11:57 PM Hidden (Susang6) " on my latest image, then I checked all of the others and they are hidden also.

I checked another designer's image in my discussion and his doesn't say hidden.   What could I have possibly done that would make you hide them from the community and for my eyes only? 

I really don't understand.

Hey @Susang6,

Can you please send on a screenshot of what you are seeing? I have taken a look at the images in one of your recent posts and cannot see any issues.

Thanks for being interested in this ...okay if you go to one of my discussions you will see I shared many screenshots.  Click on the image to view it in a larger window, then scroll to the bottom of the page and you will see the text that image is hidden, There is an in-text hyperlink that opens to my community photo album where all are hidden.  I am not certain if hidden means for my eyes only or if it means hidden from public or SEO view.  I just need some clarification. 

Thank you again for taking the time to check this out  Here is a link where you will view my screenshots https://community.zazzle.com/t5/general-zazzle-discussion/other-designs-from-this-category-is-hurtin...

We can see your images. When you click the image to open it in the large gallery view,  it always show that to you the poster. [ Hidden (YourName) ]  It's telling you the gallery it's in is hidden/private. Click on that [ Hidden (YourName) ] and you'll see an image gallery page of all the images you've uploaded and that the album is hidden.

Why is my gallery hidden? I checked other images here and their images do not say hidden. I really don't understand.

As Col said, If you click on the words "hidden (your name will be here)" a new gallery of all of the images you have uploaded to the forum will show up and the rest of us can not view it.  You can see in this screen shot of one of my post images that my gallery says hidden as well, but it is only the gallery of all images that is hidden and not the images in the individual post.  We can all see your image in the post.

So I looked at other designers' screenshots at Community and they don't say hidden.  I see that your images do.  Did you hide them?  I did NOT hide my images. And would not know who to hide them. 

I am grateful for the confirmation that you can see them.

I still wonder if they are hidden from the SEO view??? and still wonder how they became hidden in the first place...because not all members of the community have hidden images.

I did not hide my images.  No one hid your images or mine.  It is just essentially a private gallery.  Your images are NOT hidden from the public in the posts in which they reside.  That text that says "hidden" is basically a for your eyes only thing and is not affecting anything you do here on the forum or within searches anywhere on the net.  I am not sure what has led you to believe that some members of the community do not have hidden images.  If you go look at one of my post here you will see that mine does not show hidden to you either.  It is the same image that I used as my screenshot example above and shows hidden to me.

It is the same thing as our store/profile image gallery being hidden from public view, but the word hidden is just throwing you off.
