However, it was not possible to store or reuse them. \nImage Widget works as a modal repository, so now you can upload, store, and manage your store’s images.\n\n## Why did we make this change?\nThe improvement aims to help VTEX clients manage their images in Site Editor and provides them with an image repository which allows them to: \n- Store and reuse images. \n- Use images on different pages of the storefront.\n- Download images to their computers.\n\n## What needs to be done?\nNo action is required. Image Widget is now available for blocks with the native image upload option.\nFor more information, check out our [Image Widget documentation](/en/docs/tutorials/image-widget)."}
