Nikki_63, I don't know how to say more clear that Embedder shows exactly what passed as link and nothing else. You may use it in your galleey, but Embedder cannot organize such a galleey on its own! Yes, you may use something like the example you linked to (with or without Embedder).
PS: You may get familiar with Embedder while experimenting here.

Hello, thank you for your response! So, the tags I put on images in Dropbox will be considered "part of the image", so to speak? Sorry to ask such lame questions, I am a novice wanting to learn as much as possible.

Hm... 🤔 To be honest, I'm not certain what exactly you mean. Dropbox never changes any file in your account, so there is no way any tag or other property to become "part of the image" or any other file. Such things can be associated to a file and, of course, you may use them as criteria for file selection/filtering, but it's up to you particular link selection on any type of criteria (including tags).

Thank you! English is not my primary language, this is why I could not write properly what I was thinking, I apologize for that.
So, in order to display the images with a specific tag, maybe I should give up Embedder and try another approach, like the one on https://dropbox.github.io/nodegallerytutorial/ ? Or Embedder could be used to generate a gallery page based on tags?

So, this is what I thought when I read your response ("but Embedder cannot organize such a galleey on its own"): Embedder does not handle images tags, ever if the user chooses a tag to generate a page. I hope I got the point now.
Thank you very much.
