Suggestion for Web Gallery Logic
I'm not sure if the Aperture Devs read this discussion board and take feedback through it, but I thought I'd try anyway. I think one thing that would really help me in my workflow would be if Aperture's Smart Web Gallery had a few more options. A couple in specific, I'd like "not" logic with the keyword - for example if I put the keyword "Private" on any photo I don't want published, I can create a web gallery to grab all photos without that keyword on it. The way I have to do it now is give a specific keyword to every single image in my library except the few I don't want to end up in there. Works, but isn't ideal.
The other thing I'd like there is a better Calendar option. The current method only allows me to select a specific date, instead of a range. I'd like to tell it to grab any photo that's less than a year old. That way everytime I generate the gallery I get all my new photos, and anything over a year old just drops off the end.
These little additions would really help me, and they seem like things that other people would be able to use as well.
Thanks for listening!

since version 1 Aperture has been able to do this. when you do a query in the library use Keywords and click on all the keywords you want except for "private" and select Match: "All" instead of Match: "Any."
photographs with the word private will not pull up.

since version 1 Aperture has had the capability to do this. select Calendar and select the first date you want the query to begin and then Shift click on the last date.

Any suggestion for a damaged logic board rather than buy a new computer
Any suggestions for a damaged logic board rather than buying a new computer
The most frequent RAM vendor recommendations are Crucial.com and MacSales.com (OWC).
With respect the logic board, you could ask Apple about a "Fixed Price Repair" which will generally repair everything that is wrong with a Mac.

Help- how do I make images ready for web gallery??
Hi,
I am trying to create a photo gallery of images within Bridge using the Adobe Web Gallery feature. I have the images I want to use in a folder.What steps do I need to take to get the images saved in the correct format and file size? Also, what files sizes do you recommend for a web gallery? I need to make medium to large thumbnails & large images (when clicked). Here's what I am thinking I need in terms of getting this right:
use Adobe Photoshop/Bridge to create the gallery
jpg for photos
gif for solid colors
file size under 2MB (full image), under 20-30K for (thumbnails), total size of all images under 50K (no more than 50 sec. to download)
screen size: 984x728
screen resolution: 72dpi
If you could help me in any way, shape or form concerning making my images ready for a web gallery that would be most helpful. And if you can refer me to any resources on making a web gallery that'd be awesome. Thank you!
ashmic19Thanks for the link Curt Y that video is really helpful. After looking through some materials I had I figured out how to optimize my images. So I don't need any help anymore. But thanks to all who viewed this and thanks Curt Y for the video!

Problems Managing User Access Rights for Web Gallery
Has anyone else had issues changing the user access rights for a web gallery? It seems like the access is everyone or no one. Are the user rights handled per event in the gallery? I had issues adding events to the user's view/download rights in the publish settings.
Also, can these settings only be set when an event is first published? Attempting to change the user access rights after the event is published seems to require a re-upload of the images.
Any thoughts?Problem solved.
I had to put the following lines in the specified "0000_any_80.my.website.conf" file:
<Directory "/Library/WebServer/subdomain.domain">
Options All +MultiViews -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes
AllowOverride None
# For Password protection
AuthType Digest
AuthName "Password Protection"
require valid-user
<IfModule mod_dav.c>

Adding captions to photos for web gallery
I'm creating a web gallery for my web page and I'd like to add a caption to each photo and not show the file name. I've got Bridge CS4 3.0.0.464 and would like to use either the 'Filmstrip' template.
Can't figure out how to add captions.The only way I found to do it was to apply the Caption Maker script from Russell Brown before creating the gallery.
This puts a caption on each picture.

Are there addresses for Web Gallery photos?
So, I assume that when you make a web gallery, the photos are being uploaded to your iDisk space. Is there a direct address to link to so they can be HTML'd?
Chris:
Open one of the web galleries in iPhoto and look at the top of the window. There will be a url link you can either copy or use to visit the online gallery. If you click on the Tell a Friend button an email will be created with the link in it also.

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file. -
Specific order for web gallery photos
I am publishing a web gallery (newbie) and the photos need to be in a certain order-its a wedding album. How do I get them in the correct order. I put them in order in iphoto, but when the gallery publishes, they are random. Thanks
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you put them in order after creating the gallery in iPhoto and before publishing? All of my online galleries have the same order that are in the iPhoto galleries. You can change the order after publishing and then hit the publish button to reorganize the online gallery.

Flash, Dreamweaver, or Fireworks for web gallery
I'm wanting to make a nice web gallery. I do not want to use
the "create web gallery" feature found in Photoshop or Fireworks
because I want to be able to customize my design more than what's
offered in those templates.
I'm at a loss as to what Fireworks is really used for in the
first place, but from digging around online it seems like maybe
it'd be helpful for making a web gallery (or maybe just the initial
stage of figuring out the design?)
What is the best software for creating a custom gallery? I'm
assuming Flash, but then I thought maybe I could pull it off with
Dreamweaver?
I like how the images zoom in and fade out in these
templates:
http://www.entheosweb.com/photoshop_templates/flash_photo_gallery.asp
These all had to be made with Flash right? I don't want to
pay for a template - again because I want to have custom design of
my own. But I haven't a clue how to do this all, so I'm also
wondering what I need to study up in? Flash alone? ActionScript
3.0?
Thanks for any tips to lead me in the right direction.Please refer to
your other post for replies. -
Using captions (or, hiding file names) for Web Gallery with Aperture 2.0
Is there a way to add captions to pictures displayed using the Aperture 2.0 web gallery without changing the actual file name? I'd like to keep the file name but add a caption to each photo if possible.
ThanksHi John
I'm not making extra versions for this, just using the version name as the name in the web gallery. If you are not already using the version name then it lends itself to web gallery naming nicely. If you are using version names already, perhaps reconsider how necessary this is to you as you are tying up this other potential use.
My file names all contain a date and index number but I try and use more 'user friendly' version names if part of my final output will be for web galleries. This is good for clients as they don't have complicated names to order, but it's also a cinch to find the files using the search bar in Aperture.
Hope this helps

Adjust Photo Size For Web Gallery
I'm uploading a new Web Gallery as I type this....(although nothing appears to be happening at the moment...I decided against my first couple of efforts and deleted those galleries).
I don't see a way to adjust the size of the photos uploaded to the Web Gallery. As each of the photos I'm uploading is approximately 3MB in size, I was hoping there might be an option to compress each of the photos prior to uploading. Am I missing it?
In iPhoto Help, there's a topic for "Choosing the Appropriate Size For Your Photo". Apparently, this only refers to emailed photos, though?
Any thoughts on this?Mike:
Have you checked on the size of the files uploaded to the web gallery? They are resized to 800 x 600 pixels. If you select the option to have the full sized image downloaded then the max pixel dimension is 3054 pixels in any direction. If the are larger than than the get resized. Additionally the file is compressed. My 2.7 MB file was downsized to 750 KB.

In trying to set up galleries that have quick view time, I'm trying to follow iPhoto advise and use a Medium sized photo for Web Galleries. iPhoto help sez:+When you send, print, or publish a photo from your iPhoto library, you need to choose the right size+. For me that would be Medium size.
However I can find no place to determine size. How can I choose the size I want to use?smidi:
I believe that statement pertains to situation where you can control the size of the file to be used. However, in publishing a Web Gallery iPhoto determines the size. If you don't select the option to have viewers download the photos then the image size is 800 x 600 pixels. If you selected the download option then the full sized file is uploaded for viewer to download.
For emailing, if you use Mail, you will get a window which lets you select the size of image/file to send. For printing you want to use the largest size you can so you get the max resolution available.

Does LR automatically convert to sRGB for web gallery?
Searched and searched, but can't find this anywhere! I have AdobeRGB PSDs and camera RAW files, that I develop in LR and then export for web. Does LR default to a conversion to sRGB? I can't find a tick-box for this. All web images seem to get tagged sRGB, but I'm not sure whether this is a genuine colour space conversion, or merely a re-tagging.
Is this stated anywhere, or are we all working on assumptions? Thanks as always for any help.You select the color space in the Export settings to HDD, etc...under File Settings you have Image Format and Color Space to select.
If you are referring to the Publish settings for Facebook/Flickr, then Lr does default to sRGB for web.
If you are referring to the Web Gallery setup in Lr, Lr defaults to sRGB. -
Changing default jpeg compression for Web Gallery files
I have created several web galleries from both Raw and Jpeg files with Iphoto '08 that suffer from serious jpeg compression artifacts. I haven't found any way to change the compression amount to reduce the artifacts. Is there actually a way?
papasteveo:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is no way in iPhoto for the user to manage the jpg compression of the web gallery photos. If the option for visitors to download the photos is selected the copy that's uploaded is compressed approximately equivalent to an Photoshop quality setting of 8 or 9 out of 12. The pixel dimensions are the same as the original unless the max dimension in the original exceeds 3054. The the file is resized to 3054 max dimension.
If the gallery is just for viewing the image is resized to 800 x 600 with additional compression.
You could manually replace the file with one that you've prepared but it would be very tedious as each file has it's own folder and the file name is changed to web.jpg (viewing only) or large.jpg (download). You would have to rename each file to be uploaded to the new name and make sure it's placed in the correct folder.

Sharpening for web gallery output?
I'm just wondering what you all do to sharpen your images for output to web galleries, since LR doesn't offer this as a possibility.
I guess one way would be to open the images from the gallery folder and do a batch process in Photoshop. But I'm curious to know if there's a simpler or more efficient way to go about it.[email protected] schrieb:
> I also often post images larger than 800x800 that need a bit more
> sharpening. Herb, would you be willing to share a bit more about
> droplets and how you integrate them with your LR workflow?
In PS, using "Droplets" one can generate operating system level
executables. They provide a mean to hand image files over to "actions"
(macros) recorded in PS.
In order to create an "export action" for LR, one would roughly do the
following:
- In PS, record an action which does the following:
* Apply USM with suitable parameters (like radius 0.9, amount 30,
treshold 3) to an image already opened in PS.
* Save for web/save as JPEG (target folder will be hardcoded and thus
fixed).
* Close image without saving changes.
- In PS, select File / Automate / Droplet and create a new droplet
* Choose an executable file name
* select the previously recorded action
* choose target: none (Since we already saved files to JPEG)
- Put the generated executable or a shortcut/link to it into LR's
"export action" folder.
For export with output sharpen, in LR:
- File / Export
- Choose some target folder (will be fixed; for temporary image files)
- file format: PSD or TIFF
- color space: sRGB (for web export)
- maximum size: target size as needed, e.G. 1280x1024 for SXGA files
- export action: select the previously created droplet
Save these settings as a new export preset (like "SXGA").
From now on, one would just need to export using that preset. LR would
render already resized PSD files, start PS, batch sharpen them and save
JPEG files to the directory chosen while recording the PS action.
