How to load an Aperture web gallery to .Mac?

I have tried following the instructions in the Late-Breaking News bulletin to no avail. I think it would help if I understood what I'm trying to do. I clicked on "Publish to .Mac" and after some minutes the gallery appeared to be sent somewhere but I don't have a clue where. Could someone explain to me in clear English what happens in the process of publishing to .Mac? Then maybe the instructions will make more sense to me.
Thanks,
John

John,
The address can be seen under the "Publish Album As" name in the dialog box after you click "publish to .mac" button.
For example I want to "Publish Album As" Gallery1. The address will be "http://homepage.mac.com/username/Gallery1"
You could also group your Aperture created galleries by adding a directory when you assign "Publish Album As"
For example you want "Gallery1" to publish to a directory called "aperturegalleries". Simply type "apperturegalleries/Gallery1". The address will then be "http://homepage.mac.com/username/apperturegalleries/Gallery1"
Hope this helps,
Edwin

How to include Aperture web gallery in dreamweaver site

With the demise of mobile me I need to find a way to keep my personal website photo albums (web galleries) that I currently publish via Aperture web gallery and then use a hyperlink from my Dreamweaver web site. This means visitors can view the photo's from a link button but the actual images they see are Aperture Web Galleries. This method has worked for me for a while now.
I know you can save a complete web gallery from Aperture onto a local drive rather than upload to mobile me. Does anyone know a beginners (ie me) guide to include that Aperture web gallery directly into a Dreamweaver site?. It feels like it should be possible but can't find any help.
thanks in advance.

Hello Peter,
What I do, to link my Aperture galleries to my iWeb pages, is to export the galleries from Aerture to my disk and then to upload them using ftp to a folder at my web hostings service. Then I link the iWeb pages to the gallery using link button or string. I use the free FTP program CyberDuck http://cyberduck.softonic.de/mac to copy the gallery using ftp. If your web hosting service allows ftp transfer, you could do the same. CyberDuck is really a smart little tool, but any program that allows ftp transfer would suffice.

Enabling Web Gallery from ,Mac

How do I enable the Web Gallery feature the .Mac website so I have publish some pictures from my iPhone?

If you will search the iPhoto-Camera/Pictures forum, there are a number of threads outlining the steps.
In summary:
1) When viewing a picture on your iPhone, click the bottom left button (send button) and make sure you have the Send To Gallery button available
This button will ONLY be available if you have a .mac email account setup on your phone PRIOR to downloading the 1.0.1 iPhone update
2) Make sure you have the iPhoto 08 update installed (web galleries will not work without the update)
3)Launch iPhoto, select a few photos, and click the Web Gallery button at bottom; Choose all the options include allow upload to Gallery, publish the gallery (if you don't choose allow upload, you will not be able to upload from the Iphone)
4) Choose picture on iPhone, click bottom left send button, choose Web Gallery and send.
Again, there are MANY threads on this topic on the iPhone-Photos forum. This question does not involve iWeb in any way!

I have bought a new Mac Book Pro, and I need to know how I can move Aperture from my old Mac Book to the new one..

I have bought a new Mac Book Pro, and I need to know how I can move Aperture from my old Mac Book to the new one..

It begins with: F-285-NER-151-QBQ-and continues with 5 more 3 or 4 letters/numbers..
Yes, that is the number. And what version of Aperture have you installed? The same version as on your old Mac?
But it don´t work on my new Mac...
In what way does it not work? Does it require you to enter a licence number for Aperture 2 as well? That will be necessary, if your serial number is an upgrade serial number. Then you will have to enter all previous numbers as well.
Or does Aperture not accept the number as correct? Then check the spelling; some letters are easily confused like "I" and "1" and "O" and "0". Do not use the number pad to enter the numbers.
See: Troubleshooting Professional Application Serial Numbers

Aperture web gallery - how to link back to main page from iWeb?

Okay, this may be simple, but I can't figure it out.
I created and uploaded a few web pages with iWeb to my dot.Mac account (web.mac.com/f8lee50) just to get a feel for things. I then created a web gallery with Aperture and uploaded it - naturally Aperture generated a URL for the gallery, which I set up as a link on my "Photos from Hawaii" page (the link is the word 'this' in the second paragraph, if you wawnt to look).
Okay, so this gets me from the "photos from Hawaii" page to the gallery, and within the gallery I can jump to the various images etc. But how does one navigate back to the "Photos from Hawaii" page from whence they came? Is there some sort of smart link that can be inserted (by Aperture?) that will send the viewer back to the main homepage? Or are the Aperture galleries essentially dead ends?

Richard, thanks for responding - I'll check that tutorial.
And thank you for the kind words, me100finn. I have not played with any variables as far as layout on the gallery (I did a bunch of stuff with the books, but the web gallery seems far less flexible) so I cannot answer your wuestion about the gray shadows.
Steve, thank you for the additional clarification (and the hint about spaces in URLs) - I guess what this all boils down to is that the web galleries from Aperture are not all that useful when they are meant to be a part of a bigger overall site. I'm not sure of what you meant when you say they have little forward or backward navigation in them - at least you can click on a thumbnail to get to an image, click next or previous or the grid to get back to the thumbnail galery. But, 'twould seem that hand coding HTML pages (the very thing I was hoping to avoid) is the only way to really integrate them. Given that, I gues the better approach will be just to use iWeb to load the images anyway.
Well, folks, thank you all for your answers. Until I do a re-do, I guess the back button is the way to go (which, for the record, I did sorta figure out myself

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.

How to speed up loading of web gallery on .Mac??

On my .Mac web pages I have both web galleries created from iPhoto, and Photo Albums created from iWeb. All have been created from high res (8 MB+) image files. In iWeb I choose a smaller file size when uploading, to in turn get a faster loading when people view my site. However, I have not found a way to do this when creating a web gallery. Hence, my galleries load much slower than my albums. Am I missing something? Is there a way built into iPhoto (I have checked preferences with no luck), to make it upload/download reduced size image files? Thanks.

I was afraid of that. Thanks for taking the time to try it out. I guess I'll have to stick to Photo Albums if I want fast loading, but I really like the features of the gallery. Thanks again.

Aperture Web Gallery Uploaded to .Mac Site, can't find

Well, I uploaded my web gallery that I made in Aperture by clicking on the upload to web gallery button in aperture. It loaded them to .Mac but it's not like iPhoto 08 where you can easily find the gallery and email it to friends or change anything. It just dumps them online, and gives a url, but it doesn't link to your .Mac page under web gallery and so if you don't copy and paste the url that aperture gives you after you upload, then your screwed. I know the url, but my question is:
How do I put up a web gallery like they do in iPhoto 08, where I can just click a button and email the gallery, or email it, change the page, and all that neat stuff that Steve Jobs did in his speech? Do I have to get iPhoto in order to do all of that?
Thanks,
Lainey

Yes, it's an iPhoto '08 feature that they were demo'ing, not an Aperture feature.
(See the many other threads here on this very issue!)

Aperture Web Gallery - Adding Shopping Cart

Hi,
If I am using the Web Gallery feature in Aperture to create sites and I want there to be an add to cart button on each "large image page" (the page that appears when you click a thumbnail), how can I edit the template that Aperture uses to create the site so that it includes this add to cart button?
Where are the templates stored?

How do i incorperate the web gallery into my own web site?

I have a web site and i want to incorperate the web gallery created with Aperture in to it but i cant seem to get it right. I use fetch to upload and I renamed the "index.html" (from the aperture gallery) to a relevent link name but it just does'nt work.
Ive created the original web site with "Freeway 3"
I would be gratful if anyone could assist me.
Kind regards

I might be wrong, but it seems to me that what you're doing wrong is not pointing your main site into the gallery's folder structure. That is, there's no need to rename the index.html file that inside the gallery folder created upon export; you just have to point your main site's home page (or whatever page you want to set up a link to your gallery from) to the index.html file in the gallery folder.
For example, let's say your main site's home page is at http://www.yourdomain.com/index.html, and you've exported your new gallery to a folder named newgallery. All you have to do is create a link in your main site's index.html that points to newgallery/index.html (actually, you only need to point to the folder newgallery, since browsers will look inside the folder for a file called index.html, or home.html, or index.php, or a few others). The gallery folder's structure provides all the images, links, navigation, etc., for the gallery, starting at it's index.html page, but changing the name of that file doesn't tell your main site's index page to go to it. In fact, it doesn't do anything at all.
I hope this helps, but if I've misunderstood your problem, please excuse this post.

How do you password protect web gallery

Iphoto is easy to protect. How do you password protect your movies in webgallery? The help menu is not very clear

The best I can figure out is that if you post your movie to the Gallery, but do not select the option to "Show project on Web Gallery home page," the video will not show on your home page for random visitors. When the movie is done posting, you can send the direct link of your video to whomever you want by copying it from the confirmation page after the video uploads. Not perfect, but the only option I see right now.

How to improve AP2.0 Web Gallery Quality/Functionality for photographers

Hi,
I'm a pro photographer.
I thought AP2.0 plus a (dot)mac account would offer an easy way for my clients to proof images in password protected web galleries and to download images as well. The resulting functionality is poor in my opinion. Is there anything I can do within Aperture or (dot)mac to improve the following problems?
1) Why is the image quality of the web gallery slide show so poor? No sensible client would accept looking at proof images of this low quality. Even flickr is better.
2) Why is there only one download file size, i.e. the original size? In other words, the original file is almost always too large for most web client purchases. Why can't the client choose a smaller version. Even flickr is better, offering several download sizes all based on the original upload.
3) Since the export functionality within Aperture allows for numerous choices of dpi and pixel ratio to export images, why is this same functionality not there for publishing web galleries?
It seems obvious that photographers would want to publish web galleries with exactly the same control that we can export images to disk or flickr. Even within the Apple Mail application we have choices of quality and pixel dimension for the attachments.
What am I missing? Please help.

When you create a Web Gallery in AP2, there is a set up prefernce to let viewers download an Optimized, Actual Size or Optimized and Master Image. (You can only pick one per gallery it seems.)
However, I think the gallery design is rather clunky, too many design options are left open to the viewer, and not the photgrapher. I prefer the web pages and web journals for customer proofing using the image number. They email me their choices, and then using Aperture, I can order prints based on their selection. Not the simplist way, but I would not want clients downloading my images, anyway, as you suggest. Why would they buy a print if they can just download a jpg themselves?

Aperture web gallery not displaying properly in browser

I've created a web gallery, which looks fine in Aperture, but when I view it from my .Mac site, the thumbnails are shifted to the right, rather than being between the title / page selection and the footer.
This is the same when viewing the gallery on my Mac using Safari, and also Windows machines with Firefox etc.
Is it a problem with the template?

I had the same issue. Even recompiled the web page with smaller jpgs but once again the body was off to the right and the header was on the left of the page. I'm using my laptop with a 19" external monitor, when I'm viewing a website I'm using the entire width of the external monitor... maximizing screen size. When I pulled the bottom corner to make the web page smaller, the body of the web gallery dropped below the header and looked just like it should normally. Hope this helps.

How to export a lightroom web gallery into dreamweaver

I would like to know how to integrate a slideshow 'gallery flash lightroom" into a dreamweaver CC page which already exists
I'm not an IT person. So if you have a simple way...
I don't find any bottom "export into dreamweaver" in Lightroom...
So if someone can tell me how to proceed.
Thanks per advance.
Florence

Thanks for your answer.
Yes. I can open the web gallery page into dreamweaver : I have nammed this page metaphoris.html
But I don't want to use this page as a page in my web site.
I would like to integrate the content (just the slideshow) into the body of an existing page
nammed Artgallery.html
If you know
- which part of the code I have to copy and paste into my page (if it's the right thing to do?)
- and if I have to relocate some files r(essources? images?)
Thanks per advance ;-)
