Help! Multiple Bridge Web Photo Galleries in my site

RunI am in need of some help and I posted this in Bridge and didn't get an answer.
I have a website and I used bridge to make my photo galleries. I downloaded the photo galleries bridge made into two different temporary folders outside of dreamweaver and then changed the name from index.html to "deck.html" (photos of a deck we built) and "of.html" (photos of an outdoor fireplace we built). Everything worked fine. I copied the deck.html file and the resources folder into my site folder and then linked a thumbnail of the deck to the deck.html file. Everything worked fine and the gallery loaded.
Now, I know that I can't put the resources folder into my site of the of.html gallery due to the same name so I changed it to resources2. I then put the of.html and resources2 folder into my site folder. I then checked the code to find where it was pointing to the resources folder to change it to resources2. This is what i did:
changed <script src=resources... to <script src=resources2...
I then linked a thumbnail of the outdoor fireplace to the of.html, but the deck.html gallery loaded
I am assuming that I am not changing the code correctly to link to the group.xml file which contains the images to load and the other files in my resources2 folder. When the link is clicked it loads the original deck.html gallery and I thought that somewhere in the AC_RunActiveContent.js it must be linking to the resource folder and not the resouces2 folder. I have searched through all the files in the resources2 folder and the of.html and I can't find where to change the code.
Please, any help would be appreciated. Also, if there is some other way to do this let me know.

Maybe I can explain this better....
the group.xml file has the information for what images to load. When previewing the outdoor fireplace web gallery "of.html" it loads the "deck.html" web gallery. I believe this is because in one of the files it is requesting the info from the group.xml file from the resourses folder. I need to find where the code is that directs it to the group.xml and change it to group2.xml and rename that group.xml file for "of.html" to group2.xml in the resourses2 folder.

How to have more than one Bridge Web Photo Gallery in a site

I'm having a problem inserting more than one bridge web photo gallery in my site. I have thumbnails of different jobs and when clicked I want a new page to load with all the images of that job. I have one thumbnail linked to one of the galleries and I made another gallery and can't find the code to change to link it to the new html gallery. When the page loads it shows the first gallery I made instead of the new gallery.
Example:
I made a gallery of a deck job and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it brings up the deck.html photo gallery made in bridge cs4. Good!
Now, I made a gallery of an outdoor fireplace and on my photo page there is a thumbnail. When clicked it should load the photo gallery of the outdoor fireplace. It loads the gallery of the deck instead.
I understand that the code needs to be changed to link to the new files. I changed the "resource" folder for the outdoor fireplace to "resource2" and changed the code script src="resources" to script src="resources2" and it did not work
I suspect that I need to change the code that points to group.xml and rename the new photo gallery group.xml to group2.xml so it will find the one in my resources2 folder, but I can't find the code anywhere.
Any help would be great. Also, if there is a better way of doing this let me know?
Thanks

Bring Back the HTML Web Photo Galleries to CS4

These were useful, easy to customize templates with more creative freedom. Much more so than what the flash templates provide. Using the web photo gallery control panel through Bridge was more efficient than through Photoshop since you could select files rather than entire folders. Since it's available as a "legacy" plugin included with the Goodies for Photoshop, how about a plugin script to put it back where it was in Bridge? (Bridge>Tools>Photoshop>Web Photo Gallery)
Please?

Sorry,
I don't know how to post a new massage.
I'm sorry to used it to post my question.
My question is, how I can use bridge cs4 to post a web gallery to my server,
all the time is tell me I can't do it.
or if i want to open it in dreamweaver cs4 is tell me I need flash cs4 but, I have flash cs4 install
any help I will appreciated it.
I'm sorry again to post it here.
Thank You

Preview, export, and upload web photo galleries

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WSA20E5E2B-1F61-4c59-A3F4-13C1AEF9EF56.html

In the web photo gallery, exporting seems to automatically create 4 sizes of images: large, medium, small and thumb. Because of copyright and bandwidth concerns, I start out with small images anyway. What Lighroom does, however, is to still create images for each, small, medium and large to be exactly the same size, and then the thumbnail. Ie I end up with bloating website which is 3 times as large as what it should be. Multiply the space wasted by thousands of photos, and you'll soon see that it is extremely inefficient way of creating a web presence. Then I have to FTP the mass to a remote server. Crazy. Yet, I cannot find an option anywhere (incl the help text) to turn off the bloatware. Adobe. How do I create only one size of image during export, namely original size, plus a thumbnail? That is all I need.

Web Photo Galleries

Hi
I normally use the big guy, Photoshop, but I bought elements 9 because I thought it would have that automated web photo gallery from previous versions. That is that automated feature that makes a web site of a folder of pictures. I can't seem to find it.
How do I do that?
Thanks
Jon

You can select a group of photos in the organizer and start there, or you can open all the files in the editor and right click the project bin to save them as an album if you don't use organizer, then go on from there.
I don't know what you mean by "it didn't function". To run the gallery on your local computer, go into the finished smart album folder and double click the index.html file.
Many of these galleries are interactive: they don't do anything till you do something, like turn the pages of the book, click on a photo in the pile to pick it up and look at it, etc.

Increasing photo quality in Web Photo Galleries

I create Photo Galleries (Create->Photo Galleries) and FTP them to an ISP for family to view. However the quality of the photos is low(ish). I have tried every Type and Style I can find in Elements. How do I increase the size (and therefore quality) of the photos in Photo Galleries to (say)100K per photo. If this isn't possible, what are the alternatives? Thanks!

Robin,
There are different layouts of galleries (PSE5), which display images of
different pixel dimensions and file size.
For instance, in my case, the first gallery when choosing a template,
"Standard (Small Thumbnails): A paginated grid of small thumbnails on the
left and a preview image on the right" displays images in the 60 - 70 KB
range, at a size of 480x320 px. Another gallery, "Slideshow: Slideshow-only
gallery that scales to fit the browser window" uses larger images, 636x424
px at right around 100 KB.
The quality of these two image sizes is probably similar, the file size
difference is due to variation of the pixel dimensions.
When using the second gallery above, or another one that uses the large file
size, you can actually go in and exchange the relatively low quality images
with a set of the same images that you would have manually sized and saved
at a better quality. I just ran a test and substituted the 100 KB images
with a set of 180 - 200 KB pictures at 800x533 px. They have to have the
exact same file names as the original set. They are located in:
C: ...\Untitled_Gallery\resources\media\08slideshow\large
This sounds like a tedious procedure, but if you have edited a set of
images, you can run the gallery creation with that set and turn around and
replace the files.

Creating web photo galleries

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/lightroom/using/WSE7BC7E4B-BC7A-4c05-994A-A6F74113B819.html

Not strictly a Lightroom question, but you need to get server space or a host. There's plenty of free ones about, just google 'Free web host'. The hosting service will give you FTP details to enter into Upload Settings part of Lightroom's Web Module.

Help needed with multiple and seperate image galleries on 1 site

I'm looking for a simple way to create and manage multiple image galleries (about 100) on a single website. I work for an architect and have a site which has our project portfolio and every project has a page containing a write up with a gallery of only 6 images. Currently I am using .css to run it. If you hover over one of the 6 thumbnails it opens up a larger image in the same div container. If you move the cursor off the thumbnail the main image goes away leaving a default background. The only problem is my bosses now want each image to be retained in view until you hover over the next thumbnail.
Any ideas anyone?

I've never see a performance issue with IsSameObject(), although I understand your issue, it seems to be pretty fast.
Saving a global reference to a jclass prevents it from being GC'd, I don't think it prevents it from being unloaded.
I'm not sure I understand your comment about jmethodID's being different for the same method. Technically, the jmethodID is unique for each class image loaded and class loader. So if a class is unloaded and reloaded, or the same class managed to get loaded by two different class loaders, then you might see multiple jmethodID values. But do you know that is happening?
I have seen some race conditions on the JVMTI event callbacks around Method Entry/Exit and Thread Start/End. If you don't use some rawmonitors to protect yourself, you could be executing your callback code for the methodExit event while the thread goes away out from under you. I don't know if that could be an issue, but it caused me to scratch my head quite a bit when I ran into it.

Examples of web photo galleries that display xmp metadata

Hello, I am wondering if anyone knows of an online image gallery that displays xmp metadata for the images displayed?
Thanks,
Bob

Something you may want to consider is DBGallery (http://grrsystems.com/DBGallery). This product stores iptc/xmp data in a MySql database as well as in the image file (using Adobe's XMP Toolkit). Websites can access this data using any number of ways: PHP (google 'accessing mysql with php'), MS Access, and many others. Unfortunately right now there isn't an extremely easy means to access it directly from html like in the sample above: "< div class="content">DESCRIPTION: %FILEINFO% "; although finding someone to put together a little PHP to get close to this easy wouldn't be difficult (elance.com, etc).
DBGallery itself allows that data to be extracted and placed in emails and pdf's (see a sample at http://grrsystems.com/DBGallery/DBGallery_Sample.pdf). It also generates websites with Title and Description, but the websites are fairly basic I'm afraid (see
http://www.grrphotography.com/Collections/WorldPlaces/index.htm)
Dropping any images with iptc/xmp data into DBGallery gets their data into the database because the metadata is automatically read and added to the database.
If there are questions about this option reply here or email me at [email protected]

Multiple Photo Galleries in same site

I tried to figure this out before and wound up working around
it. Can't do that anymore. I need a solution - plz help!
I photograph theatrical productions and want to have a link
for each production to a gallery of images from the show. All
within my own website.
In past attempts, each time a new gallery was created (in PS
or FW or DW), the new image and thumbnail folders in the root
directory usurped the place of the previous gallery folders. When I
tried to change folder names, nothing worked.
How can I do this?? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Hi
Try using something like this http://jqueryui.com/tabs/ to place each separate gallery in its own div
As for the error, where exactly are you getting that?
Kind Regards,
Alex

When I build a web photo gallery and upload to my server, the web page as displayed by browsers is blank. With preview, insid Bridge, the slideshow works fine.

I have been building web photo galleries with Bridge for a few years and everything worked fine until my latest two builds. Now when I build a gallery and upload the folder to my web server, it's not getting displayed by browsers. When you hit the index file of the gallery, the page is blank with no written errors.
When I use the "preview in browser" feature in Bridge, the slide show works as expected.
I'm creating the gallery and saving to my local hard drive. When that's complete, I ftp the entire folder to the server and then point to the index.htm file. I've been doing this for two years with good results. All of a sudden, I can't get a gallery to display on-line.

I am experiencing the exact same problem; the gallery displays and functions perfectly when viewed locally but not when uploaded to the web server. I am wondering if it is also a Dreamweaver issue as each time I upload I receive an error report e.g. some files did not upload et cetera.

Using CS3 Web Photo Gallery Control Panel in Bridge CS4?

I found where the styles are located in the library, and it doesn't look like the old templates will work with the new Output feature of Bridge. I want to use my old templates from CS3 that I have customized, and would like to use them with Bridge. I have installed the extra Goodies, but they will only work through Photoshop, not Bridge.
Is there a way to have Bridge>Tools>Photoshop bring up the legacy version control panel for the Web Photo Gallery?
Thank you:)

Hi Paul,
I'm not a Lightroom user, but the new Web Photo Galleries that come in CS4 are in Bridge. They are Lightroom templates, so there's probably not much difference. I just tried building a gallery in CS4 Bridge with 35 files, and I could not preview more than 10 either through Bridge or in a browser by pressing the preview button. The only way to preview the entire gallery before uploading was by saving the folder, then opening the index file in a browser.
Web Photo Galleries can be created in Photoshop and Bridge CS4 just like they were in previous versions of Photoshop and Bridge. You do need to configure it using the optional Goodies files since it is not part of the initial installation. It's real easy. The link I posted above has more information. Here it is again:
http://generatex.com/cs4.html
If you do that, you'll have the best of both worlds. You'll have the option of creating web photo galleries with html templates in Bridge or Photoshop CS4, previewing them easily (regardless of size), and have the option of using the new Lightroom flash templates in Bridge CS4.

Web Photo Gallery help

I have a couple of questions about using Bridge to make web photo galleries.
- is there a way to make the galleries so the pictures retain the same file names as the original pictures?
Here's a sample gallery I made; http://www.bobcoulter.com/ps5/gallery/content/_1226902297_large.html
The first pictures file name is; 110108_0023.jpg but in the gallery if you copy the picture it's now called _1226902297.jpg
- is there a way to force ALL the files Bridge uses to make the gallery so they are lower case file names? i.e. cutName.js so that it's cutname.js etc.

IMO when Adobe removed PDF and contact sheet support along with Photoshop Web Galleries from Photoshop menu File>Automate>Web Photo Gallery... and they added an output module to the Bridge for PDF support and a much less customizable Web Photo Galleries they took a giant step backwards and short changed their users.
However you can still download some of the removed features like Contact Sheets and the old Photo Web Gallery and install them into CS5 how much longer will they provide them no one knows.
You can also find some Photoshop Scripts that can be used to generate Web Photo Galleries. Most are written in javascript and not converted to binary so you can download them and if you know a little javascript you can add anything you want.
Perhaps in some future release the Bridges output module support will catch up with the old support that is in Photoshop CS3.
The scripts I have modified can be downloaded. Here are some examples hover the mouse cursor over the bottom of your browser's window in the WS-Slideshow galleries to see its tool bar. I fit my images within a UXGA display 1600x1200 pixels.

Adobe web photo gallery - flash gallery 2

I'm using the adobe web photo gallery, flash gallery 2 and I
want to slow down the time it takes for each photo to fade in. I'm
referring to the part that after the image preloader is done and
when the image is transitioning from white into the full image.
I've gone through the code but to no avail. Can someone help me
with this? Thanks!

Most CS3 Web Photo Gallery Templates are flash free. They use straight HTML. Even the ones the change images automatically just use HTML to refresh the page displayed and change the page to the next image. The Photoshop Web Gallery Template can be edited and customized to better suit your needs. Adobe has removed Photoshop's Photo Web Galleries from newer version of Photoshop however the Feature can be installed into the newer Photoshop versions. Adobe added an output module to the Bridge that can create Web Photo Galleries these are mostly Flash based and not easily customized like Photoshop's old Web Photo Gallery templates.
IMO there is nothing wrong with Flash Web Galleries other then mobile tablets and phone do not have flash support. I have yet to see any HTML 5 web gallery with features that match Flash Galleries. I'm not a fan of Flash web sites or Flash games. However there are many Flash web photo galleries that perform well and have great features. I do not particularly want to display my images on small web phones. If you want to see them on a tablet get a windows 8 pro tablet they should have flash support. I put large images in Web Photo galleries fitted for 1600x1200 displays and count on flash to resize them for the users browsers window.
Here is an example of a Flash web photo gallery. It contains 8 or 9 albums some with additional feature enabled. All generated in Photoshop with a custom script. http://www.mouseprints.net/albums/
Resize your browser window see the image sizes change use the menu in the bottom of the browsers window to change album and try full screen support. I only use Flash for Web Photo Galleries. I'm not selling so I do not need IOS and Android support.

Web Photo Gallery legacy files CS6 PS

Before purchasing PS CS6, I want to confirm that I will still be able to load the legacy Web Photo Galleries on the program. Anyone know? Thx.

I need something that will write in the description that I have in the meta data area for each file. That's the most work for me and hoping bridge or ps will generate that for me.
Yes that was a good feature of Photoshop Web Photo Gallery feature as was it ability to stamp you with you Copyright Info.. Unfortunately Adobe did not implement that in their lame Bridge output module. The Web Galleries that it can generate has very limited customization options. While it may generate SimpleViewer Flash Web galleries the can easy display descriptions Adobe did not choose to implement image description.
An Adobe employee named Jeff Tranberry wrote a Photoshop Script to generate SimpleViewer Galleries that can be downloaded from the SimpleViewer Web Site. I modified that script to use image files meta-data like Photoshop Web Photo Gallery feature did for a couple of Flash Gallery viewers. The two I use are SimpleViewer and WS-Slideshow. What nice about Flash Galleries viewers is they will resize images to fit into the user browsers window you do not need to have multiple sizes of your images on your web server. A user can resize their browsers window to see your image larger or smaller. You choos the image quality a can see most of my images are quite large fitten to 1600x1200. WS-Slideshow Example http://www.mouseprints.net/albums/ Note: I hide WS-Slideshow menu bar hover the mouse over the bottom of an image to use it. Some albums have discription and other options.
However Apple mobile iOS devices do not have Flash support and I sure more mobile platforms will loose Flash support for Adobe is not developing Flash for mobile devices any more. I do not care some mobile devices can not view my images.
My free Gallery Photoshop Script and other Photoshop packages can be downloaded from my web site click the link below.
