Optimum Size for Web Gallery

In trying to set up galleries that have quick view time, I'm trying to follow iPhoto advise and use a Medium sized photo for Web Galleries. iPhoto help sez:+When you send, print, or publish a photo from your iPhoto library, you need to choose the right size+. For me that would be Medium size.
However I can find no place to determine size. How can I choose the size I want to use?

smidi:
I believe that statement pertains to situation where you can control the size of the file to be used. However, in publishing a Web Gallery iPhoto determines the size. If you don't select the option to have viewers download the photos then the image size is 800 x 600 pixels. If you selected the download option then the full sized file is uploaded for viewer to download.
For emailing, if you use Mail, you will get a window which lets you select the size of image/file to send. For printing you want to use the largest size you can so you get the max resolution available.
Do you Twango?
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 written 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. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Adjust Photo Size For Web Gallery

I'm uploading a new Web Gallery as I type this....(although nothing appears to be happening at the moment...I decided against my first couple of efforts and deleted those galleries).
I don't see a way to adjust the size of the photos uploaded to the Web Gallery. As each of the photos I'm uploading is approximately 3MB in size, I was hoping there might be an option to compress each of the photos prior to uploading. Am I missing it?
In iPhoto Help, there's a topic for "Choosing the Appropriate Size For Your Photo". Apparently, this only refers to emailed photos, though?
Any thoughts on this?

Mike:
Have you checked on the size of the files uploaded to the web gallery? They are resized to 800 x 600 pixels. If you select the option to have the full sized image downloaded then the max pixel dimension is 3054 pixels in any direction. If the are larger than than the get resized. Additionally the file is compressed. My 2.7 MB file was downsized to 750 KB.

Optimum QT file size for web

I'm new to iMovie 08 and iWeb, publishing to a folder not my iDisk. Is it better to use the Share feature in iMovie, or to export my video files to QT for upload to my site ? If to QT, what's the optimum size for loading and viewing?
Thanks,
Bob

Is it better to use the Share feature in iMovie, or to export my video files to QT for upload to my site ?
This normally depends on your target file/workflow needs. The "Medium" share option s a good, general purpose setting. It is compatible with QT Pro, iTunes, Front Row, iPhone, iPod, TV, gallery, and iWeb use via high-speed connection. If you want lower data rates, use a phone modem, mono audio, need CD/DVD ROM playback compatibility, or have other special issues, then other "share" pre-sets or export options with user selectable options would be better a better choice.
If to QT, what's the optimum size for loading and viewing?
Once again, the is usually a compromise between use requirements, work flow, and the contents itself. As indicated above, a 640 width with appropriate height aspect display is quite common for most uses. I tend to use this for most content that combines action and drama. On the other hand, for things like video tutorials, I would be more likely to use something on the order of a 960x540 at 60-70% of the data rate used for "movie" files. Frankly, ther is an entire range of settings and compromises that can be made between display size, data rates, and content quality which the user normally has to evaluate in order to judge what best for him or her in any particular situation.

What is the optimum size for a WIFI subnet ?

For LAN design fine, keep the broadcast domain to an optimum size. What about WIFI design though ? I want to use just 1 SSID and can have multiple vlans if I use AP groups on the controller..But how big is optimum size for a WIFI subnet ? I guess it depends on required speed, number of AP ,vlans and traffic profiles, but are there any recommendations ?
Stu

Hello,
Great question
First, if you are using a WLC, the WLC will proxy the broadcast for the clien so that it wont be sent over the wireless. With that being said, you will typically see larger subnets on the WLC solution. For exmaple, we have /21 here and they work fine for our voice, data and video SSIDs. Although, some people like smaller subnets and deploy ap groups accordoningly.
Although, I have seen subnets on WiFi voice as a /16 with 5,000 phones in the subnet which to my surprise worked well. Of course, I wouldnt have designed it that large.
If you are autonmous same holds truse, but if you configure the AP to send over the broadcast to the wifi clients you should consider a smaller subnet like a /23 or /24.
As to client mix. Most folks will have a Voice SSID, Data SSID, Guest SSID so you can shape these accordiingly. Again, typically all my designs lead with a /21 or /22.

Original size in web-gallery

When I send my photoes to my webgallery they change in size.
Is there a way where I can keep the large files in the web-gallery? My friens want to be able to print the photoes..

It appears that if a photo's dimensions are larger than 3054 pixels in the maximum dimension it will be resized down to that size when uploaded to a web gallery. For photos with sizes smaller than that the only change is in the file size which is equivalent to Photoshop saving it at a jpg quality level of 8 or 8 out of 12. It would still print OK for all but the very large prints.

Help- how do I make images ready for web gallery??

Hi,
I am trying to create a photo gallery of images within Bridge using the Adobe Web Gallery feature. I have the images I want to use in a folder.What steps do I need to take to get the images saved in the correct format and file size? Also, what files sizes do you recommend for a web gallery? I need to make medium to large thumbnails & large images (when clicked). Here's what I am thinking I need in terms of getting this right:
use Adobe Photoshop/Bridge to create the gallery
jpg for photos
gif for solid colors
file size under 2MB (full image), under 20-30K for (thumbnails), total size of all images under 50K (no more than 50 sec. to download)
screen size: 984x728
screen resolution: 72dpi
If you could help me in any way, shape or form concerning making my images ready for a web gallery that would be most helpful. And if you can refer me to any resources on making a web gallery that'd be awesome. Thank you!
ashmic19

Thanks for the link Curt Y that video is really helpful. After looking through some materials I had I figured out how to optimize my images. So I don't need any help anymore. But thanks to all who viewed this and thanks Curt Y for the video!

Sharpening for web gallery output?

I'm just wondering what you all do to sharpen your images for output to web galleries, since LR doesn't offer this as a possibility.
I guess one way would be to open the images from the gallery folder and do a batch process in Photoshop. But I'm curious to know if there's a simpler or more efficient way to go about it.

In PS, using "Droplets" one can generate operating system level
executables. They provide a mean to hand image files over to "actions"
(macros) recorded in PS.
In order to create an "export action" for LR, one would roughly do the
following:
- In PS, record an action which does the following:
* Apply USM with suitable parameters (like radius 0.9, amount 30,
treshold 3) to an image already opened in PS.
* Save for web/save as JPEG (target folder will be hardcoded and thus
fixed).
* Close image without saving changes.
- In PS, select File / Automate / Droplet and create a new droplet
* Choose an executable file name
* select the previously recorded action
* choose target: none (Since we already saved files to JPEG)
- Put the generated executable or a shortcut/link to it into LR's
"export action" folder.
For export with output sharpen, in LR:
- File / Export
- Choose some target folder (will be fixed; for temporary image files)
- file format: PSD or TIFF
- color space: sRGB (for web export)
- maximum size: target size as needed, e.G. 1280x1024 for SXGA files
- export action: select the previously created droplet
Save these settings as a new export preset (like "SXGA").
From now on, one would just need to export using that preset. LR would
render already resized PSD files, start PS, batch sharpen them and save
JPEG files to the directory chosen while recording the PS action.

Problems Managing User Access Rights for Web Gallery

Has anyone else had issues changing the user access rights for a web gallery? It seems like the access is everyone or no one. Are the user rights handled per event in the gallery? I had issues adding events to the user's view/download rights in the publish settings.
Also, can these settings only be set when an event is first published? Attempting to change the user access rights after the event is published seems to require a re-upload of the images.
Any thoughts?

Problem solved.
I had to put the following lines in the specified "0000_any_80.my.website.conf" file:
        <Directory "/Library/WebServer/subdomain.domain">
                Options All +MultiViews -ExecCGI -Indexes -Includes
                AllowOverride None
                # For Password protection
                AuthType Digest
                AuthName "Password Protection"
                require valid-user
                <IfModule mod_dav.c>
                        DAV Off

Adding captions to photos for web gallery

I'm creating a web gallery for my web page and I'd like to add a caption to each photo and not show the file name. I've got Bridge CS4 3.0.0.464 and would like to use either the 'Filmstrip' template.
Can't figure out how to add captions.

The only way I found to do it was to apply the Caption Maker script from Russell Brown before creating the gallery.
This puts a caption on each picture.

Are there addresses for Web Gallery photos?

So, I assume that when you make a web gallery, the photos are being uploaded to your iDisk space. Is there a direct address to link to so they can be HTML'd?

Chris:
Open one of the web galleries in iPhoto and look at the top of the window. There will be a url link you can either copy or use to visit the online gallery. If you click on the Tell a Friend button an email will be created with the link in it also.

Specific order for web gallery photos

I am publishing a web gallery (newbie) and the photos need to be in a certain order-its a wedding album. How do I get them in the correct order. I put them in order in iphoto, but when the gallery publishes, they are random. Thanks

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you put them in order after creating the gallery in iPhoto and before publishing? All of my online galleries have the same order that are in the iPhoto galleries. You can change the order after publishing and then hit the publish button to reorganize the online gallery.

Flash, Dreamweaver, or Fireworks for web gallery

I'm wanting to make a nice web gallery. I do not want to use
the "create web gallery" feature found in Photoshop or Fireworks
because I want to be able to customize my design more than what's
offered in those templates.
I'm at a loss as to what Fireworks is really used for in the
first place, but from digging around online it seems like maybe
it'd be helpful for making a web gallery (or maybe just the initial
stage of figuring out the design?)
What is the best software for creating a custom gallery? I'm
assuming Flash, but then I thought maybe I could pull it off with
Dreamweaver?
I like how the images zoom in and fade out in these
templates:
http://www.entheosweb.com/photoshop_templates/flash_photo_gallery.asp
These all had to be made with Flash right? I don't want to
pay for a template - again because I want to have custom design of
my own. But I haven't a clue how to do this all, so I'm also
wondering what I need to study up in? Flash alone? ActionScript
3.0?
Thanks for any tips to lead me in the right direction.

Changing file size for web use - multiple images

My most recent iPhoto event consists of 45 pictures, most of which are 1 MB or larger. I want to scale them down a bit for web use.
I do understand how the export command works. If I want to change all 45 pictures at once (select all), where should I export them to, and then what is the procedure to get them back into iPhoto? I would really like them to all show up as a new event in iPhoto (same pictures as the original event, only smaller file sizes).
Am I overlooking some easy way to do this?

No you’re not overlooking an easy way to do it.
Export them to a Folder on the desktop and then import them.
However, why are you keeping these web versions? The more efficient use of disk space would be to upload them then trash them. If you need other versions in the future you can re-do them. Not a lot to be gained by holding on to them, is there?

TD
