OT?  How to make an "automatic" photo gallery site?

This is a loosely defined question as I'm not sure of all the implications and parameters and have no sample to offer.
My photog client - who doesn't know DW or html - wants a gallery site with a templated page layout so that he only has to upload some (properly named) jpgs into a folder and new pages with thumbnails are created automatically with links in place. I'm not knowledgible enough about html /dynamic html to make recommendations, but I got something similar done with, if I remember correctly, an ASP developer long ago. Can this be done with dreamweaver alone? Suggestions? Samples?

Many photographers like JAlbum Web Photo Album maker.  It creates thumbnails, watermarks images, generates the code and scripts for Flash galleries, Lightbox galleries, GPS info, etc.. on the fly.  Drag and drop images into folders. Press a button and voila all done.  All he would need to do is upload his finished JAlbum Folder to remote server.  Simple enough if he can use an FTP client.  Or you could build a password protected upload page for him to use.

  • "Automatic" Photo Gallery

    Hi everyone!
    I'm trying to make an "automatic" photo gallery: when you upload the photo in the source folder, it automatically gets uploaded in the gallery. Is there a chance to make this?
    I have this file that calls Word files, and as I update the source file (Word) the data gets updated on the web. So how can I build a simple gallery that would work roughly this way with the photos (As I said above: I upload the photos, and they get arranged in the web)?
    Thanks a lot!

    Sure you can.  If your server supports PHP with a MySql database, you can use ZenPhoto.

  • How does one add a photo gallery to my web site in Dreamweaver CS5 and have the link recognized as a destination file?

    How does on add a photo gallery to a web site in Dreamweaver CS5 and have the file folder which contains the photos, recognized as the "go to location" for the link up?

    Ok.  So Photos1.htm is the main gallery page.
    And it looks like you have sub-folders with images in them like these from 2011 and 2010
    LLA Picnic 2011/
    photos 2010/
    Have you defined a site in DW yet?   That's a critical first step in getting DW to recognize your site's links and other assets.  See video below:

  • How to import Bridge CS4 photo gallery into Dreamweaver CS4?

    I'm a novice when it comes to web design, but am starting to master DW CS4. While searching for a way to create good looking photo galleries I found an online video explaining how to do it using Bridge. The process in Bridge was strainght forward and simple. However, I have not found how I can bring the photo gallery I created in Bridge into a page based on a template in Dreamweaver. Can it be done? How?
    I designed a template for our website which I would like to use for any photo galleries in order to maintain the same "look and feel" and ease of navigating within our website (www.aquacomgroup.com).
    Please help!

    I'm having the same problem & desperate to find out how to do this!! Help!!

  • How to make a "new photo to publish" be considered "published" without actually publishing it?

    how to make a "new photo to publish" be considered "published" without actually publishing it?
    I have some photos that are really just stubs that represent the other "real" photos to publish.
    I don't want to have to do a mock export/rendering of them just to make them appear published.
    Any ideas?
    Rob

    In one of my plugins I have a requirement to download and add photos from the remote server and populate the newly created published collection in Lightroom.  In this routine, I use the following code to add the images to a published collection using the method provided by Don above.
    [code]
    catalog:withWriteAccessDo('createcollection', function()
         newcollection = v:createPublishedCollection(h.title)
         newcollection:setRemoteId(h.id)
    end)
    catalog:withWriteAccessDo( 'NPGSetUpdates', function()
         newphoto = catalog:addPhoto(newpath)
         newcollection:addPhotoByRemoteId(newphoto,p.id,p.url,true)
    end)
    [/code]
    The biggest thing here is that adding a photo like this requires the code to reside within the withWriteAccessDo block.

  • How do I embed a photo gallery in my own web page design?

    I have a photo gallery that I'm just starting, and I want to embed it into my existing design. I can't seem to figure out how to do that. I tried copying and pasting the frame and code, but it doesn't pull the images.

    Example of it embedded on a page (not mine)
    http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_060_photo_gallery
    Thanks!

    All that other site did was use a table layout and put the gallery within a table cell.  The same effect could be done with a container div.
    <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0" name="flashmo_060_photo_gallery" width="800" height="800" align="middle" id="flashmo_060_photo_gallery">
           <param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" />
           <param name="movie" value="flashmo_060_photo_gallery.swf" />
           <param name="quality" value="high" />
           <param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" />
           <embed src="flashmo_060_photo_gallery.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" width="800" height="800" name="flashmo_060_photo_gallery" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
         </object>
    That's the only code you need to bring over from the first page to your page.  Then just make sure paths are all set so that your other page can read the flash file and you should be good to go.

    How do I download my mobile me photo gallery to i cloud ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might consider DropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage. (not all these alternatives offer all the services previously provided by iDisk)

  • How to upload photoshop Web photo Gallery to iWeb 1.1.2

    I have a great iWeb Photography site and it's linked to the web through my domain name only- just thru Forwarding. I want to use the Photoshop CS2Web Gallery feature and have created a sample folder. How do I link it to open in my website?
    So far, I created the box, chose to hyperlink it to an external page and typed in page name that the Web Photo Gallery gave it and then I go thru the website- it goes to the gallery home page, but shows no photos, just the little question mark boxes. I'm pretty non-technical about this. Any help is great. I can't find the answers through Adobe help. I thought this was going to be easier...

  • How To Customize Existing Web Photo Gallery?

    I copied one of the existing Web Photo Galleries (Simple - Vertical Thumbnails) and have customized it. What I'm needing to change now is the Options within the Web Photo Gallery dialogue box. Under "General" I'm needing to have the "Use UTF 8 Encoding" checked, under "Large Images" I need the Resize Images: unchecked, and so forth.
    Where would these setting be located?
    Thanks!,
    Wesley

    Really, that's your answer??  In 3 seconds I saw that your results were not what I needed.  Do you think that I haven't already searched for this?  I'm not needing to know how to adjust current settings each time I bring up the Gallery dialogue box, I'm needing those settings to be preset when I bring up my custom gallery style.
    Where are the Option presets stored?
    I'm needing these presets for example:
    General > Use UTF 8 Encoding and Preserver all metadata to be already checked
    Large Thumbnails > Resize Images to be already unchecked
    Amongst other settings.
