Help: Custom Web Gallery Themes

I'm currently creating web galleries for clients as I import images into Aperture, and using the "Proof" theme, but it's only available with a white background. I'd prefer a black background, but the only theme I can find is the Stock theme.
Can I create a custom "Proof" theme with a black background and import it into Aperture?

if you are comfortable in editing .css files ...
all the fonts, colors, borders, etc are located within the assets folder under css ...
if you are not comfortable ... google css and learning ...
the W3 schools offer great CBT-DIY instruction ...

  • Help! web gallery colorshift when viewed on another pc

    my web gallery photos look great on my mac but look dark & somewhat dirty when viewed on another
    pc. I have tried importing through adobe lightroom, iphoto 8 as well as directly to desktop then importing to iphoto. I typically shoot RAW- i have tried converting to jpeg before importing as well. Frankly I've tried so many things(including adjusting color profile) that I'm not sure where I'm at or what I've done- I have finally managed to get my images to print properly so am apprehensive about making more changes on my own - I've had my mac for only a couple months so much on it is still new to me...thanks in advance for any help

    Thanks for the quick reply,
    The colorshift is happening on the windows based pc, (I am using safari on my imac)- I am assuming IE on the windows platforms.
    I am assuming then, that it is because the windows users are using another browser?
    what can I do so that they see what I see?

  • Help implementing Web Gallery into Flash Site.

    Ive created a flash site through a tutorial, but I prefer adobe's web gallery design. I created one through adobe bridge but when I navigate to the photo section where I added it, it takes over the screen and prevents me from navigating away from it. I was curious if it were possible to restrict its size, im also all ears for any other suggestions.

    I am not familiar with what PS CS2 creates, but you should
    check whatever publish settings there are for that feature to make
    sure that any file protection features are not enabled. That may be
    the source of the problem.

  • Tweak to custom web gallery side panel

    Just a suggestion on the web gallery panel. The photo itself has a black border around it by default, and cannot be changed without substituting the code in the style.xml after production (ffffff for white for example).
    Could you add an identical color box preference choice right under the Background / Border / to say "Image Border" ?
    Was a beta 1 tester, and love everything about the program. Can't wait for the added features in hints by Reichman and Schewe - soft proofing, output sharpening (and syncing to laptops can't be far behind).

    My more immediate suggestion just deals with enhancing the choice features of the web gallery customization. That is the real point of the thread.
    Yes, Sean, I do catalog export/import with location shoots and extended trips that fill up CF cards and external drives, which for me is an early generation 40 gig ipod. This is a way to merge catalogs and move groups of photos, etc. What I am talking about is true synchronization that is more transparent to the user and gives multiple machines/users the ability to make changes to individual files without creating the catalogs. It will enable LR to work in networks and server catalogs, etc. One person posts all the metadata/another does the develop edits. It will come down the road and reduce the need for catalog export and import (my guess is version 3).

  • Can anyone help get me started on making a simple custom web gallery template?

    I have tried using the documentation and a freeware template as an example, but I am getting confused, and I think the template is over-complicating things.
    I have a web-template that requires the following to get images to automatically work in a gallery:
    Full size images in a specific folder
    Thumbnails or each full size image in another specific folder
    Simple HTML code for each image which allows for image title and description information
    The script takes care of the rest.  So what I want to do is have Lightroom genereate the images in their specific folders, and the HTML code on the fly for each gallery I wish to publish to my website.  I'm posotive this can be done, but I'm having trouble customizing the code.  I've tried looking for tutorials and help, but the documentation on this is limited, and I'm not a programmer.  I do however have enough experience with basic web design to be able to work with existing templates with relative ease but this is seemingly difficult as I'm not sure what each file in the plugin structure is actually doing.  Any suggestions on how I can make a simple gallery output like this?  Or a link for a good, solid, easy, step-by-step tutorial?
    Many thanks in advance!

    You don't need the intermediate step of uploading to Verizon; you can upload directly to Facebook from your phone.  You need to go to your Facebook account, and set up your mobile number; then you will get a personalized email address and you can send a text message with the picture and any caption you want to that email address and it will show up as a mobile upload on your timeline.
    You *used* to be able to text a status update or a pic to 32665 (FBOOK) but that didn't always work.

  • How can you save a customized Web Gallery in CS4 Bridge?

    While trying out some the Web Galleries in CS4 Bridge, I have customized several using the customizing options. The info I type in is saved automatically but if I change from one gallery to another, all the customized choices for colors, etc., returns to the default version. Surely there is a way to save what I have input? Kind of ridiculous if you have to do this every time you want to make a gallery. Also, seems that some galleries have more customizing options while others leave those options off. Is this just a bad oversight by Adobe? In the HTML web option, anyway to have it list the file number/name below the image? 

    I was surprised that no one wanted to answer this question.
    I waited long enough.
    I still don't have this working properly

  • Create custom web gallery templates

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WSC8DB18E8-337F-46bc-89C5-5F7F7408696C.html

    Can I create a tile layout that is 2x2.  It seems that Lightroom won't allow anything smaller than 3x3 and the display in my browser is tiny.
    I want a 2x2 layout where each image is 450 pixels on its long side.

  • More Customized Web Gallery Options

    I'd like to see the ability to customize the flash galleries and add the ability to choose whether to allow right-click downloads of the images. I see the option is available in only a few templates. Also, a way to set a custom slideshow as the new default. Keeps reverting back to the original default slideshow.
    Thanks.

    I'm just going to upgrade to the new Aperture - hopefully that'll sort it..

  • Web Gallery help separating photos into 2 collections

    Help creating web gallery please. I would like to separate photos in the gallery into 2 different collections or categories. When I set up my web gallery in LR 2.0 and choose the first set of photos, I can name this collection title on the right panel. How can I then set up a second collection with different photos so they both show up in the gallery on the web and a viewer can choose either topic and then view the photos within it? Thanks.

    You need to create a master gallery page and link to the pages within. There is no automatic way to do this.
    There are 3rd party options: LRB Portfolio (disclaimer: mine), Auto Index from The Turning Gate will do this with Galleries from the Turning Gate.

  • How can I create a link to an external site in my aperture web gallery?

    Very keen to add a link to my main home page so people can go from my web gallery at www.smartstreets.eu back to my home page at www.smartstreets.co.uk
    Anyone know a way to do this?
    Also wondered if I can change the font, size, format (eg bold etc) in the theme I have chosen .. this seems to be set and cannot be changed.
    Any ideas? Any places I can try for great third party web gallery themes? Thank you!

    I don't know how to accomplish this when using Aperture's built-in web gallery feature. My suggestion may help until you find out how to do that. I suggest buying iLife '08 and using iWeb to create your web galleries. The iWeb media browser shows your Aperture library and albums so there's no need to export-import. You do need to generate previews for photos to use in iPhoto. iWeb is much more powerful than Aperture's gallery layout tools, plus there are many themes available. Think of iWeb as an export plugin for Aperture.

  • XSL, XML, and Metadata Names in Web Gallery Templates

    I don't know exactly how to ask the question, but what I want to do is customize the information that appears below a full-size image in an HTML web gallery. For the existing HTML gallery templates, this is the area where "caption" data is placed. You can display just about anything you want there, but you are essentially limited to a single line with no ability to format spacing. I would like to be able to show mutiple lines and format the way I want, which would be pretty easy in HTML.
    I have created a custom web gallery, and I have learned where in the transformer.xslt file the caption information is placed. However, I do not know what the metadata field names are, or more importantly how to place them in HTML. Does anyone here know enough about XSL to give me hand? Any kind of direction would be greatly appreciated.

    Try John Nack's blog
    there was some initial info there.
    Also Sean McCormack has done a lot of work on hacking the templates

  • Photoshop CS4 web gallery template in Lightroom?

    Hi,
    I have a custom web gallery template set up in Photoshop CS4. I would like to use it in Lightroom, but it appears the Lightroom web gallery templates are in a different format (and not so customisable). Is there a way I can use my CS template in LR??

    Thanks Ian,
    I am trying out Lightroom to see if it can replace PS for my needs. So far its not looking good! Looks like I might have to upgrade PS instead. I am preffy proficient with PS and have several custom functions set up. My web gallery integrates with my website and has been developed over a time to get it just how I like it. I can also drop in and edit the HTML to tweak it as I go.

  • Referencing Single Metadata Fields in a Custom Web Template

    Is there a way to refer to a single metadata field in a custom web gallery template? I don't see a syntax for this in the files that define the templates that ship with Aperture. They appear to refer only to the metadata as a collection. Is there a way to refer to individual fields?

    The problem is that Web Templates are deployed to a gallery in a site collection and aren't available in Central Admin when creating a new site collection.  YOu have to create the site collection without choosing a template and then choose your web
    template when you first access the root site in the site collection.  Here's an article that discusses that process here:
    http://sharepointchick.com/archive/2011/02/10/using-web-templates-to-create-site-collections.aspx
    Other than that Vesa's article is still the best one and works essentially the same in 2013 as it does in 2010.

  • Customizing Photoshop Web Gallery in Dreamweaver

    HOW DO I STOP WIDTH OF IMAGE FROM STRETCHING? (height is in
    proportion)
    more details:
    I've almost finished customizing a Photoshop web gallery in
    Dreamweaver, which is completely confusing for me (i'm a novice)
    and any head way i made in changing the template was mainly from
    trial and error as it is very unclear in the instrutions on how to
    edit.
    I finally have a template that is starting to look the way I
    want with the thumbnails at the bottom in an iframe and with the
    larger image above with arrows on either side. I edited it so the
    only thing that's changed in size on the image is the Height so the
    width can change automatically.
    When the practice gallery I made first opens I've got it
    displaying each photo for 4 seconds then going to the next, there's
    also the option to pause. While it's playing when it first opens
    everything looks fine, the image sizes are right the height is
    correct and there's no stretching. BUT as soon as I click on a
    thumbnail at the bottom it decides to stretch the width of the
    image to fit the table, and then every image after in the slide
    show is also stretched. Even if i pause the slides and select a
    different image thumb it displays the streched image and not the
    proper proportioned image that is displayed when the page is first
    opened.
    Anyone know how to fix this??????
    Any help at all would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    My advice is to get a 3rd party gallery creation program.
    Many are free and most are better than Adobe's half-baked offerings.
