Web-Gallery behaving strange: multiple pictures inside!

Just having subscribed to MobileMe, I am trying iPhotos Web-Gallery feature for the first time. But I am experiencing some strange behaviour: When selecting a number of pictures and creating a Web Gallery, the pictures upload perfectly. In the gallery on the Web I see the right number of pictures. Every pic is there just once - as it should be. But in iPhoto's appropriate Web Gallery folder, some of the pictures have miracleously multiplicated, I see two, three or even five identical pics there.
I have no idea why this is happening. It' not happening with all of the Web Gallery albums in iPhoto, just one. I deleted it, created it new from scratch, gave it a different name ... all to no avail. Still I see multiple identical pictures inside iPhoto's web gallery folder.
Any idea?
OS X 10.5.4 & iPhoto 08 (7.1.3)

it used to be that this only appeared to occur if you made modifications to a web gallery while it was updating - if you have made changes during an update that may be it
It also is possible that the switch to mini me or mobile me or what ever it is created some new issues - this is the first I've heard with the set up

Web Gallery only shows 10 pictures cs4

When I try to create a web gallery in Bridge CS4 and/or Photoshop CS4 only ten images are included even though I have selected many more than 10. I have tried different column and row configurations, I have reinstalled, but it still only includes the first 10 images and then there are blanks. I found a 2008 reference in Adobe support to this dead link which is supposed to have a solution: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b70a2d/0
But it is dead.

The preview only uses 10 images to let you see how it will look.
This is to avoid slowing things down unnecessarily
To see the whole gallery, save it to a convenient place to view it in a browser.

IMovie Web Gallery Issues with Multiple Size Movie

If I upload a medium and large size versions of the same movie to my web gallery it stores the two movies successfully. If I visit the site I'm presented with my album of the two sized movies. I click on that thumbnail and another page opens up showing the medium movie downloading. There is text to click for Medium and Large verions of the movie below the display area. If I click Large a refreshed page appears. I have to wait for the medium moving to finish downloading before the large movie starts. Why doesn't the medium move abort when you click the Large link? Despite both movies have been downloaded if I click on the medium movie text link the movie starts downloading again.
Also, I can't delete the medium movie from the web gallery without deleting the large movie. I have to upload the large movie again.
Any work-a-rounds. This doesn't sound right.
Kelvin

I don't know the answer (..so perhaps I shouldn't be replying..) but I can confirm that the same thing happens for me.
There's no × available at the top-left of the gallery page, either, to stop the download, to enable quicker swapping to another size.

Web Gallery pictures after deletion still in Finder

Hello....
I create a web gallery on MobileMe using iPhoto '08 and had it allow others to upload the pictures to the gallery using web interface.
Now, when someone uploads the pictures they appear in the iPhoto the next time it syncs. However, if I delete the picture from the Web Gallery it disappears from iPhoto BUT the picture can still be found in the Finder under the iPhoto package in Pictures directory. I mean the picture do not get deleted from the iPhoto package in Finder when they are deleted from Web Gallery.
How the picture should be deleted from Web gallery so it gets deleted from the Finder as well? I mean it is difficult to trace the pictures and delete manually in Finder.
One other question I have is if someone uploads the picture and it appears in iPhoto under Web Gallery and I want to move this picture to my library so to keep along with my other pictures how should I do it?
Thanks.

Atique:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you just selected the photo and hit the Delete key the photo will only be deleted from the gallery and not the library. You need to use the CommandOptionDelete key combination to move the photo out of the web gallery and into the iPhoto trash bin. Then empty the trash bin via the iPhoto->Empty Trash menu option. That will delete the photo from your library and your HD.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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 or later), 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 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. 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.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Problems Emailing to Web Gallery From Camera Phone

I have a Sony Ericcson camera phone that has a mail client which I have set up to use GMail for both incoming and outgoing mail. I can't seem to get Web Gallery to accept the picture emails I send from the phone. The only thing I can conclude is that the server accepting the emails has problems parsing the message. I can use my desktop computer to send the image to Web Gallery, so it's there's nothing wrong with the image itself. I've also tried configuring my phone to use an AT&T mail server to send the picture, but have the same problems, so it's not the mail servers. I've also sent a full sized image (2 megapixels) as well as a small version (640x480) to see if it's related to file size, but they fail as well. Interestingly enough, I can send videos that I take from my phone to Web Gallery and it gets posted, so I figure it's not the phone.
Has anyone else encountered this problem? I've included the failure notice email I get back from the Web Gallery mail servers below if it can help diagnose the problem. Thanks.

After many trial and errors, I figured out that the web gallery mail servers were choking because the filenames my phone gives photos have capital ".JPG" extensions. If I change them to lowercase, the pictures get posted. Unfortunately, I can't rename the files inside the phone and need to transfer them out to my mac via bluetooth before I can rename it. To solve the problem for myself, I created an email address on another hosted website that pipes mail to a script that rewrites the problematic portions before sending it to my web gallery. It's somewhat of a roundabout way of doing it, but it works for now.
Hopefully the web gallery mail servers will be corrected to handle this situation.

Limiting Web Gallery Viewers

Under the settings for each Web Gallery, I see that you can limit the gallery to people who have the correct Name and Password. Can you only create one Name and Password for each Web Gallery? Or can you create multiple Names and Passwords for the same Web Gallery.
Let say I have a Web Gallery titled "See My Pictures" and I have two friends that I would like to share the gallery with. Does Aperture 2 limit you to only 1 Name/Password for each of my friend? Or can I create a separate Name/Password for each friend (thus creating 2 Name/Password combinations)?

hmmm... doesn't seem to be answered for me. I agree that you can select either Album viewable by: Everyone / Only me / user1 / user2 / usern / public... this does suggest i can't allow 2 or more users to access this (unless i give them all the same password.
Does anybody know how we can allow multiple users to access one gallery via password?

How to combine multiple pictures in one picture

Hi guys.
Total noob in photo shop here..
I am very expert on using Paint (HAHA..) but using Photoshop 2014 is my very first time and only thing I know how to use is magic eraser..
Right now I'm doing a website project and trying to make few pictures for each pages.
I'm trying to make one picture that has multiple pictures inside. (with some designs.. and look smooth.)
I have no idea how to use Photoshop and I just simple need to put pictures together to look nice and neat.
I have attached two picture samples. It would be nice if you could teach me step by step how to make a pictures like that (would be awesome if its even better ^^)
I appreciate your help and have a nice day.

If you want to learn these kind of techniques there is a wealth of online tutorials that will help you work this out. Here are a few links that should point you in the right direction:
Create collages, montages | Photoshop, Photoshop Elements
Photoshop Tutorial : How to Make a Collage in Adobe Photoshop - YouTube
All you need to do is search online and you should find most of what you want.
Thanks

Lightroom 2.7- HTML Web Gallery

Hello all,
I've been using Web Gallery features to produce picture pages but I would like to incorporate them into my existing web pages (with or without a background. I'd like to continue to use Lightroom because of it's ease of use to allow me to create the web sized photos (in the two web optimized sizes), without the backgrounds such that that HTML code can be dropped onto another prebuilt page and updated easily, perhaps coding it in such a way as to allow input from Lightroom?.
Have you come across this problem? Is there a way that you've found to accomplish this?
Here's an example of what I've built so far:
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/_images/flotilla38_2010_picturepages/index.html
Here's an example of an existing page that I'd like to be able to update my "PicturePages" web gallery onto.
http://a0700308.uscgaux.info/flotilla38_blankpage.htm
The whole concept is to do this and still allow the pictures to be updated from a Lightroom web gallery so they can be added/changed/deleted easily. Appreciate any help...
Henry

If you are able to save out the page that you want to include the gallery into as a .php file, then you can include the Lightroom gallery file in there using PHP Includes:
Doing it this way will allow you to easily publish your Lightroom gallery without being afraid to overwrite the old customized HTML page.

Rebuild/Redownload Web Gallery Images into iPhoto?

I have a web gallery that has 312 pictures, but I maybe only see about 50 of them within iPhoto. Is there a way I can get iPhoto to download those pictures again from the iDisk gallery? They show up in iDisk as well. I just don't want to have to delete the gallery and then have the people who contributed to it to have to re-upload the pictures.
Suggestions?

I figured out what it was... 4 images were uploaded to the web gallery with a semicolon (;) in the name. After removing those 4 images, I was finally able to retrieve all the rest of the images from the web gallery into iPhoto without issue. I then renamed the images and re-added them back to the web gallery.

Multiple Headings on MobileMe web Gallery through iPhoto?

Basically, all I want to know is, can I have more than one "Albums" listing on my web gallery. It doesn't seem like it, but I'm a very new Mac user so I thought I'd ask here.
I'd like to be able to customize:
Albums, Work Portfolio, Illustrations, etc -- is this possible?

nerahla:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can have multiple web galleries. You create each web gallery independently and publish and they will all have separate URLs but all will be listed under your overall gallery like I have here. If desired you can password protect a gallery or have it isolated from the others so when you send a visitor to see it via its unique URL they cannot get to the other galleries.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) 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.

How do I get more than 20 pictures in my Web Gallery

I am making a web gallery with 162 photo's, but the "Refresh Preview" as well as the "Preview in Browser" only shows 20 pictures. In the galleries that I made before I had no problem with the amount of pictures. If anyone can show me what I should do to open this barrier, I would be very grateful,
thank you Nico Boink

The limit only applies to the preview. Generate the Gallery and then view it in a browser and you will see the full set of pictures.

Web gallery: Multiple pages depending on browser

I'm using iPhoto to post a stand alone gallery of 62 pictures for a client to review my photos. I've noticed depending on the web browser, the gallery might divide up my pictures over several pages--which can be confusing with the tiny buttons to move between pages.
Is there any way to force all pictures in a gallery to show on one page? That would be a much better experience in this case. Also, can you edit the settings of a gallery after it has been posted (Aperture 2.0 does this now)? Thanks! --Jeff
Example of Web Gallery with 62 photos:
*Safari 3: All 62 on one page
*Firefox 2: 62 pictures divided over 2 pages
*Explorer 6: divided over 3 pages (25/25/12)

Is there any way to force all pictures in a gallery to show on one page
No - web galleries are a consume level feature and you have limited control of the display - to make suggestions to Apple re improvements iPhoto menu ==> provide iPhoto feedback
Also, can you edit the settings of a gallery after it has been posted
Yes - in iPhoto select the web gallery and click on the gear icon in the toolbar - a setting window comes up that gives you access to the limited setting that you control

Hidden pictures show in Web Gallery

I've used the new Hide functionality to hide some pictures. That works fine. When I create a Web Gallery for that event it rightly shows the count of the unhidden pictures. When clicking on the Web Gallery in iPhoto it displays the expected pictures. However when viewing on the web, the Grid, Carousel and Slideshow also show the hidden pictures. What's really weird is that the Mosaic shows the expected.
Looks like a bug - anybody else encountered something similar?

Hi Mark,
If you are talking about what you see in the Preview, then yes, that is restricted to the first ten images in your selection.
If you go ahead and create the web Gallery and then view it, you will see all of your selected images.

Missing images in web gallery- strange lines??

When I make a web gallery and publish to .mac a couple of images appear to be missing or are cropped.. its really odd.. everything looks fine in the preview. Also I sometimes get these really strange thin lines through my images.. I usually dont notice them until I get my prints done.. Has either of these happened to anyone? Thanks.

nikinoo --
In the past I've experienced the same problem with some web galleries. The problem went away after I quit Aperture & then opened it up again. I then went and republished the problem gallery without a hitch.
I too have experienced lines running through my images, but it's been quite some time -- The upgrades that Apple has released appear to have corrected the problems. It might be helpful for you to list what printing settings you are using, there are tons of people here who should be able to help.

Web Gallery created in Bridge not displaying first picture correctly on a Unix server

Hi Guys, Am really stumped by a problem that has surfaced after moving from a Windows web hosting server to a Unix hosting platform. The Web Galleries created in both Bridge CS4 and CS6 display and operate as expected on the Windows server. However, having moved to a Unix hosting platform, I observe an odd behavior when going to the Web Gallery page. When the gallery loads, it displays the first image offset. This is always the top left hand quarter of the picture, offset to show in the bottom left hand corner, leaving the top left and right quarters and the bottom left quarter black (I use quarters to best describe the situation, though it really does seem as if the view port of the Gallery is indeed quartered for this first image).
If I click on the second image in the series, it appears full size. The same happens if I click on the "Play" button. If I return to the first image manually, it displays full size.
The phenomenon is apparent in Firefox 19.0.2, IE9, Opera and Chrome, all of the latest build.
Can anyone throw some light on why this phenomenon is occurring and better still, suggest a cure?
Grateful for all and any help anyone can give.
Cheers, Daviddhg

Hi Guys, This turned out to be a Unix server-side issue. Apparently the compression software being used by the ISP on this server was in some way incompatible. The ISP turned the compression off and the problem was cured.
