Images should be labeled according to what they actually show. A manufacturer example, fictional design and completed client project are different forms of evidence. For this project gallery, the practical test is whether the example opens a correctly labeled detail and relevant next step.
Do images accurately represent their source?
Start with a visitor looking for work relevant to a planned project. The image provenance check concerns gallery labels, project destinations and whether the imagery is actual work or an illustration. A manufacturer image or fictional demo can look like a completed client project unless the page clearly identifies it. Visual polish does not establish provenance.
Shared gallery templates must retain the project’s service and location associations rather than borrowing the first branch’s labels.
Check it on this page
Choose a gallery example that matches a service question, open its details, and distinguish completed work from illustrative imagery.
- Identify the source, permission and caption of each prominent image.
- Check whether nearby words imply an actual project or result.
- Label demonstrations and manufacturer examples according to their true purpose.
Sharing signals received less attention than the visible design
Public source reviews found missing Open Graph URL values and image metadata associated with another market. These are separate from the main page title and can survive a redesign if the sharing fields use another template.
For this project gallery, the check focuses on gallery labels, project destinations and whether the imagery is actual work or an illustration. Inspect the URL, title, description and image description that a sharing client receives. A corrected heading does not update those fields automatically.
Repair the source, then check the published result
Use truthful labels and approved attribution, and protect private customer information. Keep useful visual context without presenting a demo as a completed client result.
Record the image provenance result for this destination, then repeat the customer route until the example opens a correctly labeled detail and relevant next step. If the repair changed a shared component, compare another destination with different approved facts to detect unintended copying.
