No Web Gallery automated task in PS CS 5.5?

Was just going to create a quick web gallery in Photoshop CS 5.5. I don't see that option under File / Automated anymore. Did that move somewhere else or to a different program?

Now done in Bridge… there is still the option to add back some of the previous versions functionality if your prefer that…

Missing Images when Automating Web Gallery in CS3

HI
I'm new so please be kind! I am trying to automate a web gallery in Photoshop CS3 but every time I run it it misses one image. I have renamed the image to no avail.Its a jpeg like all the others - nothing at all outstanding about it. I have purged the folder cache through Bridge. No difference. I have tried to do it through CS3 and through Bridge, no difference. I have even turned the computer off and on again!Of course the one its skipping is one I really want in the gallery!
I am running a Mac OS X 10.5.5 on a 2Ghz Destop
Thanks

You're a genius! I left both the jpeg and the psd in the same folder - it skipped the jpeg again but found the psd file.
Thanks so much
Chris

Web Gallery generation speed is unacceptable

Machine: DP 2 Ghz G5, 2 GB RAM, 160GB disk, 250 GB disk, 20" Cinema Display
Aperture has it's library on the second SATA disk to improve I/O, likewise CS2 uses that disk for it's scratch and Bridge cache.
Task: Generate web gallery, Aperture(Proofs template), Bridge/ACR/CS2(white dots on black background)
-Raw images: Only 10 D2X NEFS
-In both apps all NEFS were tweaked and sharpening applied.
-Thumbnails 200x300
-Enlarged image(after clicking thumbnail) 750x499, JPG quality: Aperture(high) CS2(level 8)
On Aperture I selected "Export Web Pages", not "Publish to .mac"
Both Aperture and CS2 wrote the gallery web dir(under different names) to the same second internal SATA disk.
Aperture took 4:30
Bridge/ACR/CS2 took 59 seconds
Once again Adobe buries Aperture.
This is only one of the many problems with this app.
Note to Apple, if you want to be the leader then you need to beat the leader.
NO, I do not work for Adobe.

For me, the speed of Web page gallery creation isn't of great consequence. I don't make them that often. The speed of comparing images, selecting the pick from a stack, cropping, adjusting color, and so forth is much more important for me.
I've found the selecting tasks to be much faster in Aperture than in iView Media Pro III, which I also use and like. I also use Photoshop all the time (I'm still on CS1) and think its the best program that I've ever used. But cropping and adjusting colors are much easier and more facile on Aperture.
I wouldn't know how to conduct your test. Would I use the automation features to create the Web gallery, loading each image off of the hard disk in turn? If so, first I'd have to convert each to DNG. Then I'd have to adjust each on the fly. That makes no sense. So would I do the adjustments and then save out in PSD or TIFF format? Then the files are much bigger, so the disk i/o makes the test unfair for Photoshop and more about hard drive speed than anything the Apps are doing.
I recognize that other people are having speed problems with Aperture, even in areas where it works well for me. I have tricked out hardware which certainly helps my experience.
If I was making lots of Web image galleries every day, maybe the speed difference of a few minutes vs a few seconds would bother me too. I've noticed that the Web output from Aperture is very sharp with no noticable fringing. I think it looks great. But I also see that adjusting that sharpness isn't an option with Aperture. That hasn't annoyed me yet, but it might on some future project (like a portrait that wouldn't be as flattering if so crisp).

Creating web gallery

i'm attempting to create a web gallery on my new mac book pro lap top (4 gigs ram, running 10.5.2). I go to "automate", create the gallery using the templates (and I've tried them all), hit "OK" and I continually get a error window saying "the application photoshop quit unexpectedly". i am using cs2. i have been able to complete this task on my desk top using cs2, without any problem and it is an older machine. I have tried other automated functions, such as "contact sheet" and it works fine.
Thank you.

Which is why Adobe does NOT support CS2 under Leopard. :/

Web gallery still not working.

The web gallery feature is still non-functional. I used to use it all the time. Suddenly a few days ago I noticed that it simply does not work anymore. I highlight and event, click web gallery, it creates a web gallery in the left sidebar of iphoto. The little progress circle turns for about 15 seconds, then suddenly the web gallery from the sidebar disappears and it as if I never clicked on the web gallery button. All my old we galleries are gone. I tried deleting iphoto prefs and deleting to _gallery folder from my idisk. No luck. When I try publishing a movie in iMovie to the web gallery, everything seems to proceed correctly. It compresses and uploads. The when I click the link provided, I get Apple's version of error 404: no such website.

Ben:
See if you can upload a file, any type will do, to the Sites folder on your iDisk via the Finder. I had a similar problem. When I tried uploading a file to the Sites folder or any of its subfolders I would get an error message. I reported it to the iWeb and .Mac feedback sites. It went away for a while and then came back that same day and then went away. Apple did get back to me and checked my account. They reported all was well. If you do get an error you may have a similar to mine but one that's not correcting itself. Report you problems to:

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. 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.

Setting a password at the web gallery level

Hi,
I would like to host multiple password-protected albums in my web gallery but don't want to require my viewers to enter a password for each album they visit. Is there some way I can set password protection at the web gallery level and make all albums accessible to those who successfully authenticate?
thank you!

No, not with iPhoto. That can be done with iWeb. You password protect a single site and can have multiple photo pages, i.e. slideshows, in that site. The just provide the URL to the site along with the password and user name to use.
It's so easy to create the photo page/slideshow in iWeb by dragging the album of the photos you want to use into the iWeb photo page like this.

How do I change the background color to black? I'd like Photoshop's generated web gallery to display photos against a black background.

I can't find a place to change the background to black from white. I'd like Photoshop's automated web gallery feature to show photos against a black background once I open the htm file inside Firefox. I use a Mac with OS 10.6.7 (current) on my 27-in. iMac. Thanks very much

There are often many ways to do things, and c.pfaffenbichler's suggestion above is good.
However, as I'm very fond of Curves, I'd use Image - Adjust - Curves (or Layer - New Adjustment Layer - Curves) myself, and pull the black point of the blue curve up.

How to restore a Web Gallery from my backu

I noticed today that one of my Web Galleries was gone. I'm sure I didn't delete it. I entered into Time Machine while still in iPhoto '08 and stepped back in time until the missing Web Gallery showed up. Apparently it got "deleted" a few days ago but it's there in the backup. Trying to restore the web gallery attempts to restore the actual photo files which is Not what I need. I need to restore the little Gallery "playlist" thing in the Source Pane on the left.
I dug through my backups on my time machine disk and found the backed up iPhoto Library when the gallery still existed and after opening the package contents and looking through the AlbumData.xml file in Text Edit I could see that, yes, the code for my missing Web Gallery is there.
Here's my problem... How do I get that back into iPhoto???
I tried cutting and pasting the relevant code into today's current .xml file and then re-opening iPhoto. No go. In fact the code I pasted in is removed again by iPhoto.
Next I tried replacing the entire .xml file with the back up version. No go. iPhoto again removes the code for the missing Web Gallery.
I'm at a loss.
And I'm a little worried that a web gallery can just up and go missing. And that there is no way to get it back from a backup.
What can I do??
-Don

Don:
Time machine will not restore just the database file. You will have to restore the entire library. BUT you can have it keep the current library (it is renamed iPhoto Library (original). Then take the Library6.iPhoto file out of the restored library, put it in the original library (make sure you've not imported or deleted any photos since that backed up version was made) and use the original library again.

Loosing Quality in Web Gallery

Hello,
When I publish photos with the iPhoto to Web Gallery I noticed that the photos lose cuality, it reduces the file size and of course the quality of the picture. Only with the pictures, the videos keep the same size.
What should I do to keep the same quality of the original photo in the web gallery?
Thanks.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There's really not a lot you can do. Each photo in a web gallery is, as you found out, reduced in dimension and has some jpg compression added, about equivalent to a quality level of 7 of 12 in Photoshop, for faster file transfer and display. You could manually replace each photo in the gallery on the iDisk with a full sized version. But that would be very time consuming as each photo in a gallery has its own folder several different sizes of that same file. The large file does not carry the original file name but is named web.jpg. So you would have to rename each file web.jpg and place it in the correct folder for that web gallery. Lots of room for error.

Help with Starting a Web Gallery

I am new to Lightroom and would like to setup a web gallery. I setup the FTP server in the Upload Settings and when I click upload, everything seems to be working fine. I also get a "Task Completed" message in the processing bar (upper left).
When I go to the destination, (www.wokintime.com/gallery/) nothing is displayed. Also, when I click "Preview in Browser" nothing displays - the url says "about:blank" and the entire page is blank.
Am I missing something?
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Do you get an error message from LR when uploading?
Have you got permission to upload to this folder on the server?
Are you placing the gallery in a sub folder within the gallery folder on your site? This will be shown here in LR
Have you checked your server to see if the galley files are present? Whoever supplies your web service will usually have a mechanism to do this. Log in to your service in your browser, it will be called file browser or the like.
I note you are using wordpress for the site, you may also have a htacess file on your site that is set to prevent browsing directly within a folder that is outside of the WP instillation, you will need to change permissions on the folder to allow viewing of the gallery by direct html link if this is the case. It may be better to create your galleries in wordpress itself, many plug ins are avaible for this, I do this on my sites such as
http://severnriverstrust.com/
petemarshall.com
both of which use WP for the site and files from LR to create galleries

Web Gallery not showing up in iPhoto

I've set up multiple albums through the web gallery feature and successfully synced them to my .mac account. The problem: one particular gallery shows up on the .mac account but not in iPhoto anymore so there is no way to manage it/add to it/delet it??
thanks

Jim:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. By not showing up do you mean the gallery is no longer listed in under the Gallery section on the left of the pictures in the gallery are showing a blank window with an "!" in the middle?

How do you automatically update a Web Gallery from a Smart Album?

I just installed iPhoto '08, and like the new features. I have published several Web Galleries, which are great for people who don't have Macs. I am publishing a smart album of all of the photos taken in the last month (Date is in the last 1 Month). However, when I add new photos, they show up automatically in the Smart Album, but they don't show up automatically in the Web Gallery. Is there a way to do this in iPhoto '08? Is there a way to do this with Automator? Thanks for your help.

TeeJay6:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. No you can't because the web gallery is a separate entity from the smart album. Once the gallery is created in iPhoto you have to add photos to it manually and then click on the icon to update it online.

Web Gallery Slide Shows: Music and Captions an option?

The title sums up the question. Can web gallery slide shows (on my .Mac account) be made to look and sound like the slide shows i'm running in iphoto - with captions and audio?

Mark:
You can get the captions to be displayed in the web gallery by running this script to move the description to the title field before you publish the gallery. After the gallery is published you can change the title back to the file name with the Photos->Batch Change menu option.
Have you considered using iWeb to create a photo page/slideshow and add the music to it. Here's a test page of such a setup. Be sure to read all of the comments on the linked page as there's a minor error noted in the script that is easy to correct.
