I am facing an issue whenever I upload images into the image management tool area it is not saved permanently, when I share the project to anyone the images are not displayed. If anyone know an easy solution to this I will be really grateful

Image management is a gateway-wide resource, not a project resource. You must use a complete gateway backup to share those.

They're similar to tags; they will never change to being project scoped. The easiest method is to export the images from the image management tool and import them in your other gateways
