A layout gallery is just a file on disk containing any number of assets you add to it.
That one there happens to be the "example" file Houdini ships with. That one is read-only, it's only meant for you to have something to play with. (see the text there: Read Only Source: C:/PROGRA~1/...)
If you want to put your own assets in, you need to create a new gallery. Click the cogwheel right next to that text and when the menu pops up, click Create New Asset Database File..., then select save that .db file somewhere on disk.
