Best way to Title Images In Web Galleries

What is the best way to add a caption or title to each individual image displayed in a Bridge Web Gallery?
Using the file name is unsightly as it always includes the extension - so that's out
Is there a way to extract a title from the metadata?
Any other way to accomplish this simple task?
Thanks,
Pete

Why not use one of the free web gallery creation programs – they are mostly much more versatile than the somewhat crude Photoshop offerings.

Best way to store image? will be a lot of image files

I am working on a new project which involve user upload image to server and then do searching and view image. there will be a lot of image files. image will be displayed in web page as thumbnails, so there may be resized pic stored in server or resize on the fly.
What is the best way to store image like this? as files in file system? database? etc...?
Thank you very much

Hi,
When you are asking about the "best method for BDB", you should first read this: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/am_conf/select.html
When you know exactly what are the differences between the BDB access methods, then you will be able to figure out which is the best method for your requirements or to ask a more specific question.
Regarding the second problem, you should read about isolation and degrees of isolation: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/transapp/inc.html

What is the best way to place image (with caption) in a Book?

I am preparing a template for an Encyclopedia project, The Encyclopedia will be in more than 10000 pages, so what is the best way to place images (Photos, Graphs, illustration ...etc) with a caption?
The problem that when I modify text; the image don’t move with it, and when I place it within the text, it's difficult to control text flow.
Please Help

Thank you Peter,
it's a bit dificult to control anchored object -speacially in two colum text box- when placing image in one and half colum size, it wont move to first column.

Best way to stack images?

I'm doing macro photopgraphy and need to do a lot of focus stacking. I'm trying to determine the best way to stack images in PS, but there seems to be a lot of conflicting information out there. I've sucessfully stacked images using two different methods:
Way # 1
file -> scripts -> load files into stack
edit->auto-align layers
edit->auto-blend layers (stack images, seamless tones and colors)
Way # 2
file -> automate -> photomerge (uncheck blend images together)
edit->auto-blend layers (stack images, seamless tones and colors)
The second way produces a much better result, IMHO. Is that the best way to stack images in PS?
Thanks for your advice.

I hear Photoshop can do it, but I've not tried it.
I do have two quite accomplished macro photographer friends who swear by the standalone program Helicon Focus. They've shown me some quite good results.

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

What is the best way is to create a web app item collection which will contain only the listings where addressstate="ABC".

How many systems have you used Robert?
This is the only system you can not have all item data at least in JSON format and all of it. Big commerce has a lower limit and as I have said in every post related to a limit - I understand the function, but you can still make the requests as just one example (front and back)
Same with API Robert.
Firstly - the SOAP API request on say products gets you ALL the products, if you do something through a REST API request you can make the requests to get all the items to complete your process of what your doing - You have to otherwise the API is pointless.
Ok if the normal modules can not iterate through if there is a module_data solution, and web apps will get there hopefully sooner then later and you do have the sql query (where) for your filter which is great BUT, if you want to implement a solution across everything you cant do that with the liquid implementation.
This also flows through to the JSON everywhere in concept which is fundamentally flawed for the same reason... And again referring other like services where a hard API has a limit but the JSON request returns everything.
How those work varies from the method of request, some will only update every day, xxx time (Depending on cost of the plan) so its a cached version of data, to the ones that limit that request to x number of times per set time/day.
That is how the actual rest of the world works, varied solutions but they are solutions. BC know they have a few limitations, there clearly is the need for things, there are a varied set of options... It is just a matter of engaging in it and offering up a solution for it, silence just creates frustration.

What is the best way to display image ??

hi my questions is unusual, there are so many ways to display images.
I m developing image processing s/w can any one suggest me which would be the best way to display image on which i can perform image operations.
like in JPanel, icon, trhough paint() or anything else...
thank you..In advance

hi man... i think so imaging is better with JAI(Java Advanced Imaging) .... is perfect for display in jcomponent like JPanel or JLabel, you have to replace the paintComponent().
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.Rectangle;
import java.awt.geom.AffineTransform;
import javax.media.jai.PlanarImage;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
class ImagePanel extends JComponent {
     protected PlanarImage image1;
     protected AffineTransform atx= new AffineTransform();
     protected int width, heigth;
     public ImagePanel() {
     public ImagePanel(PlanarImage i) {
          image1= i;
          width= i.getWidth();
          heigth= i.getHeight();
     public void paintComponent(Graphics gc) {
          Graphics2D g= (Graphics2D)gc;
          Rectangle rect= this.getBounds();
          if ((width != rect.width) || (heigth != rect.height)) {
               double magx= rect.width / (double)width;
               double magy= rect.height / (double)heigth;
               atx.setToScale(magx, magy);
          if (image1 != null)
               g.drawRenderedImage(image1, atx);
if you need more info, ask about JAI api and docs

Best way to manage images on jsp web application

Hi,
Am developing a jsp web application, in that project, the user will upload the image files, now I created an image directory in the context root and when the image is uploaded by the user it is saved in the /images directory and the image path is saved in the database. I can display this image using the <img src="images/a.jsp" > tag.
but when I rebuild the project all the images in the /images directory get deleated but the image path is remained in the database, is there any method that I make /image dir outside my project context root so that when I rebuild the project the /images dir can get changed and my project will save images outside the context root that is in the /images dir which is now outside the project context root. and is it possible to display those images using <img src""> tag. because this time my /images dir is at D:/images . what could be the best method or way to handle images with the web application.
any suggestion will be helpfull

Well my friend as per your given case there are to two ways of approaching your problem.
Case 1:
How to save the relevant data ??
.Create a backup folder Workstation on which you are hosting your application where you can store all the uploaded files which is outside the scope of webserver(However we can write a dedicated servlet which can access that file) and make sure we pickup from any the folder path from a specfic MessageResource bundle or an context/servlet init parameter in web.xml.
.Write a Upload servlet/Backing Bean which saves all the files in the discussed folder using utility packages like Commons FileUpload,Oreilly MultipartRequest & etc and then register saved fileName in the database user specfic table specific to user.
How to display the Image ??
.Write a dedicated servlet which can pickup user related fileName specfic information from the database and the read the file from backup folder by constructing the path from the entry made as a init param in web.xml or any other custom MessageResource bundle and then stream the Image data using the ServletOutputStream.
NOTE: do not forget to pickup & setImage file ContentType & Set the content length.
.Just try to render the JSP view file where we are displaying the displaying the images by calling the dedicated ImageServlet.
<img src="ImageServlet?userid=2345" align="center"/>Try to refer below posts to get a better understading.
Dedicated Image Servlet:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5208858&messageID=9840042#9840042
Uploading Files Using Servlet:
http://muimi.com/j/jakarta/commons/fileupload/
Case 2
The second method would more or less the same but here we would save the uploaded file
content is saved in the Database as a Blob and we would retrive it back using a dedicated image servlet again.
However,in terms of performance the second case implementation is very costly.
Try to refer below posts to get a better understading on the second case.

Best Way to Install CS6 Design/Web Premium Upgrade

Hi,
CS6 Design/Web Premium Windows Upgrade (for CS5.5 Design Premium) is shipped and on its way for 5/10/12 delivery. Reading on these boards about CS6 installation problems (plus the installation difficulties for CS5 upgrade from CS4), prompt me to ask:
What is the best way to install the CS6 upgrade?
Is there a CS6 clean tool available?
I would ordinarily first deactivate and uninstall CS5.5 Design Premium.
Is this the best way to proceed?
Regards,

If you do not want to keep a CS5.5 concurrent installation , this is the best way in my opinion.
The CS5.5 uninstallers do not remove everything of CS5.5 however. There will be e.g. left overs in the Help titles of the CS6 Help Manager. There is a cleaner tool: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
Cheers,

Ampersand in Title/Caption for Web Galleries

You probably all know this already, but I didn't...
I've been getting to grips with the
Sean's tip for formatting captions in web galleries, including
Matthew's Slimbox gallery. As you'll see in the thread linked above, I had some trouble initially using it with Slimbox, but I thought I'd got to grips with it until...
A title for one of my pictures was "Beer & Blues". By that I mean the Title field in the Library module, as distinct from the Title field in the Web Module.
In Flash galleries it works just fine.
In the LR HTML (and Slimbox) galleries using an & in the image title metadata field can cause a variety of symptoms including:
- just displaying a blank background and never getting round to rendering the gallery when Web module is selected
- replacing "Custom Settings" next to the Title/Caption radio buttons in the Web module with "Edit...", consuming 100% CPU, displaying the rainbow spinning beach ball of death, and taking several minutes to return
- apparently working but obstinately refusing to acknowledge any edits made
There appears to be some interaction between this behaviour and using the <ag:formatted> technique, but I'm struggling to pin it down.
All of these symptoms disappear by using either "and" or "&" in place of "&".

Sean,
I'm sure you're right and that's what's happening. I have no excuse for not realising although I did track it down by a process of elimination.
Anyway I know
i now!

Best way to increase image size for print

I have a jpeg of an image that I will have to increase roughly 140% for a final print size of 16"x20". I am creating the final design in InDesign, but am editing the image in Photoshop first. My question is what's the best way to increase the size of the jpeg first in Photoshop (I assume) so that when I bring it into InDesign it is maximized in terms of resolution but not so large that the file size prohibitive for sending.
I've already cropped the image, but haven't adjusted any of the sizes. The dimensions are currently: 3233 pixels x 2586 pixels, and 10.777 in x 8.62 in at 300 pixels per inch.
Do I bring it into InDesign this way or increase the document size first in Photoshop? I assume the latter.
If I increase the size in Photoshop, I assume I should resample the image. If I do, that increases the pixel dimensions and file size to over 82.4M. Is there a way to keep the 300 ppi resolution while reducing the file size?

Photoshop CC now has Preserve Details as well as Bicubic smoother for enlargements.
140% is not asking much for enlargements. Photoshop may suffice.
You mention 300 ppi. Is it really necessary? In the days of offset presses,that was the standard, but what is it for a photo inkjet or the printer you use? You may not need 300.
Personally when I enlarge, I like Photozoom Pro. I have it on my Mac and PC and find it better than stock enlargement in Photoshop. Of course it's $99-$199 depending if it's on sale.
Here's a bit more about digital enlargement in this Sydney Morning Herald article
http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/cameras/how-to-enlarge-images-without-pixelation-201306 26-2ovts.html
Of course Photoshop is for preparing photos for print and the web, so you would want to finish your photos there before moving them to InDesign.
Trevor Dennis, Noel Carboni and many other professionals can give better answers on the subject of enlargement and printing so I hope they will post advice as well.
I can't answer the last one honestly, I've never prepared prints for room exhibit, so I can't say what works best.
Good luck. I hope you can get it sorted out.

Blank images in web galleries

Since I upgraded to Mac OS X 10.4.9, when I create a web gallery, I typically end up with 3 or 4 out of 200 images which are all white or partially white. If I export a version using the same settings, it works fine. Has anyone else experienced this? I really like using web galleries to show proofs to clients, but this makes the process a bit tedious.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Mac Pro 3.0 GHz Duo Core Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I am still experiencing this problem when exporting images as jpegs on version 1.5.3. It's now showing portions of some images blanked out in white and sometimes blanked out in black.
I use Aperture to create proofing galleries for my client and what should be simple has become a tedious process because I have to scan every photo in a gallery to look for corrupted exports.
Please point me in the direction of a solution.
Thanks!

What is the best way to preview Images

I'm trying to figure out if Lightroom is the best software for the first part of my workflow and if so, how to do it.
When I import images, I copy them to my hard drive and at the same time to my backup drive. Before doing that, I want a good preview of the images and get rid of garbage that I don't even want to back up.
To do anything with images in LR, you have to import them first. Since I shoot in Raw, I'm limited in my choice for viewing the images first. Sometimes, I will start Bridge and use my normal rating system on the cards and delete garbage before importing into LR. My problem with this is that Bridge is slow and the reason I moved to LR in the beginning, Also, I'd rather keep my workflow within as few pieces of software as possible. (My opinion is that LR should come with CS and demote Briidge to Elements, but that's a different thread.
I'm looking at another software for sorting and rating, but again, this is more expense and overhead on something LR should be able to do.
Anyway, I am looking for the best way to get this done in LR, or alternatives that others are using.
Thanks

The much maligned import module in the LR3 beta will do what you want. You can view the images on your card in loupe view and decide which ones to import. It is not grease lightning, but not bad on my PC.

Title photos of web galleries are not changeable?

Dear everybody,
I've been trying to change the "title photo" of some of my web galleries - that is the picture a viewer sees first when entering the gallery overview. Simply putting the desired picture in first place via iphoto doesn't do the job. Do you think it is necessary to create a new gallery each time I want to change the title photo?
Help and ideas appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
Keywan

Open iPhoto's preferences and go to the Web Gallery section. There you can change the overall name of the Web Gallery Title that is seen online.
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 created 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 and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

What is the best way to view images on an External Hard Drive?

I have a Macbook Pro with the latest OS X Yosemite
Can anyone tell me the best way to easily view thumbnail images on the external hard drive because at present I am having to open each folder and would ideally like to see all thumbnail images in similarity to what Adobe Bridge has! (I have not got Adobe Bridge).
Any pointers or advice please?
