Azure Compute Gallery allows you to manage and share customized images for dev boxes, helping development teams standardize and streamline their workflows. By attaching a compute gallery to a dev center, you can create dev box definitions based on stored images, ensuring consistency and efficiency.

 ## Image versions
 
 When you select an image to use in your dev box definition, you must specify which version of the image you want to use:
 
 - **Numbered image versions**: If you want a consistent dev box definition in which the base image doesn't change, use a specific, numbered version of the image. Using a numbered version ensures that all the dev boxes in the pool always use the same version of the image.
-- **Latest image versions**: If you want a flexible dev box definition in which you can update the base image as requirements change, use the latest version of the image. This choice ensures that new dev boxes use the most recent version of the image. Existing dev boxes aren't modified when an image version is updated.
