Web gallery examples

I'm thinking of publishing a web gallery as opposed to my current iweb photo pages, but I haven't seen any web galleries yet. Could someone post a link to some published web galleries so I can see what they look like, how well they work...? Thanks.

Just do one and wee what you think - if you don't like it delete it

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.

Can I use CSS with PS Web Gallery Preset?

Using DW CS4. I wanted to create a web gallery with captions under the thumbnail images. I could not get captions to show up using the workspace output tool in Bridge, so I used the web gallery plug-in and preset in Photoshop. The doc title and description from the metadata shows up with each thumbnail and large photo, which is what I wanted. I added an Iframe to make the gallery show up in my web page layout with all the links I wanted, and I re-wrote part of the preset html to eliminate some of the extra preset gallery text at the top of the gallery pages. I am using a transitional doc type.
It all worked out just fine and the pages are working as planned.
However, when I used DW to validate the gallery pages, the report showed errors because the font attributes for the gallery pages are controlled by html and not by CSS. There are two problems cited in the report:
The tag "center" is not allowed within: 
In HTML 4.0, FONT is deprecated... consider using style sheets instead.
Questions: On the gallery pages generated by the PS plug-in and pre-set, is there a way to control font attributes with a style sheet instead of using the pre-existing html styling? Do I need to be concerned about the attributes being deprecated?
If you need to look at the web gallery, you can see it at http://www.LoonSongGardens.com/webgallery/galleryab.html
If you look, you can see why I am daylilybud!

I used an iframe (as opposed to a frame) as suggested in an article by David Powers about embedding a gallery into a web page. He says the iframe is acceptable in html, and no problem with the iframe itself was indicated during validation, just the FONT attributes from the PS preset I used. You can read the article here: http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/gallery/embed1.php
In my current gallery, thumbnail captions appear from the metadata for each photograph. For each large image, both the title and the description come from the photo's metadata. This works well for my purpose, and I want to avoid re-entering each title and description. I guess my question could be better stated by asking if CSS can be added to the preset to apply to captions coming from the metadata of each photo.
Regarding the lightbox approach you suggest, I looked at the example and do not see captions under the thumbnails. Can captions be added to the thumbnail images? (It is essential that my thumbnails have captions.)
Customers need to see the name of each plant when they browse thumbnails in order to select items (daylily plants) of interest.
Because I am dealing with hundreds of photos and will need to update frequently, I am looking for a solution that is efficient and fairly easy to maintain. So far, the PS web gallery preset meets my needs better than anything else I have found, but I thought I'd try to find out if I should and can fix the FONT attribute validation problem.

Added photos in web gallery synced back to iPhoto?

when others add photos to my web galleries, i can't find where they are synced back to on my mac. For example, if I publish an event "Beach" and my friend adds a picture taken from her camera to the web gallery, it does not sync back to the original 'beach' event in my iphoto library....instead its saved to an unlisted '2008' - 'originals' folder in iPhoto. Is there a way so that if someone adds a photo to the web gallery it will sync back to the original event folder that the web gallery was published from?

You're not neurotic MJM80, This problem drives me nuts.
I created a web gallery album through ME.com from my office computer. The album shows up in iPhoto under MOBILEME GALLERY on my Mac at home but it does not create an album or even in iphoto that corresponds to the web gallary album. The photos only exist in the web gallery they are not transferred to my iphoto library at all. Very annoying.
Anyone who has an issue with this should post it in the discussions and send feedback to apple. MOBILEME GALLERY sync should work in both directions.

How to get rid of the large slideshow images in Web gallery (CS4)

Here is the deal.
I've created a flash web gallery/ But the new CS4 has the option for slideshow with this flash stuff. CS3 use to create thumbnail and large images folders. The new one creates 3 folders: 1. thumbnails, 2, medium images, 3 large images (for the slideshow). That's great, until I go to upload process. I have pretty limited space. So I'm ready to get rid of the slideshow option, but there's no such option in gallery creating process. The only solution I have in mind is to redirect slideshow images to the medium size folder. But thats pretty annoying process during the creation of each gallery.
So does anyone has an idea how to skip the slideshow creation or another method to skip creating 3 folders, all with the same images?

Extend DefaultListCellRenderer, not BasicComboboxRenderer. Here's an example that wraps the original renderer and uses it where possible (i.e. instanceof JLabel). No 'white square'.import java.awt.BorderLayout;

public class ComboRendererTest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {

Help! centered watermark in web gallery?

Hello!
does anyone know either
1) a web gallery template with an option to center the logo
2) Where to modify the LR defalt galleries (coding) to center the logo
I really need a centered logo. Some of my photos have stock value, and I need a watermark over the center of the image to prevent web usage.
thanks!
-Josh

I use LR2Mogrify to add a watermark on export, check the add to catalog box on the export dialog and then put the watermarked copies into the web gallery.
Here is an example:

New to iWeb - Curious about posting a web gallery

So I set up a new page in iWeb, a photo page. In iPhoto, I uploaded my web gallery. I then dragged that gallery into iWeb and the thumbnails were there. When I double click one of them, it takes me to the next page but no image shows up. The title of the image is there, but not the image itself. Why is this?
I then published the page to see what happens. When I went to the page however, my header was there, but no thumbnails.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong here.
The photos are online in my gallery, I've checked that. All is well there.
Why won't they show up my my published site? Do I need to activate them somehow?
Thanks in advance!

Instead of adding the gallery to a photos page have you tried using the MMe Gallery Widget in the Show Media/Widgets pane?
That will create an object with skimming features that, when clicked, will take you to the MMe gallery online. This demo page has examples: iPhoto/MobileMe Galleries
Otherwise, create an album of the photos used in the gallery and drag that album into the photos page.

How to Edit Web Gallery Output from CS5?

Hello! I just upgraded from Photoshop CS3 to CS5. (Got some scrambling to do to catch up!) I had been using the old File>Automate>Web Photo Gallery to create galleries for my Web site. Massaged a little in Dreamweaver MX (I know, I know...) they look something like this:
http://www.techno-imaging.com/gal10spring/alden_b2/index.html
I found out how to add the old Web Photo Gallery back into Photoshop CS5, but was curious to find out what Bridge CS5 would do with Output>Web Gallery. I experimented with the Standard template and was mostly happy with the result. Here's what I got:
http://www.techno-imaging.com/gal10spring/alden_b2_test1/index.html
Trouble is I'd like to be able to customize the output a little more than allowed within the template itself. It looks like the output has Flash, JavaScript, XML, HTML and maybe other programming resources. I'm fairly familiar with HTML 3 and CSS, but am not a programmer. Can anybody recommend what high-level editing tools (example: Microsoft Word for fancy text editing) I could use to make some modest tweaks? The default modules are fine, but I'd at least like to be able to add a link back to my main gallery page like you see at the top right of my old Web Photo Gallery pages.
Also- are there 3rd party templates for Bridge CS5 Web Gallery?
Thanks, - Dave

Hi i7nvd
Oh my, I missed that completely! Thanks very much for bringing that to my attention. In the meantime I found that ACDSee would do a Web gallery that works OK for me. However I will go back to Bridge Output Web Gallery this afternoon and five it a whirl. Again, many thanks for jumping in and pointing that out to me. I appreciate it a lot!
BTW, thanks for the link to your site built with the Bridge plug-in. And congratulations on the wedding!

Web Gallery CS4 Journal with Slideshow giving too much info

I have photos from a number of authors. There are also various functions for which I want a slide show for each. I would like the information on the left of the slide to give the Description (if present), and the person who took the photo.
No matter how many items I uncheck in various metadata panels, I still get:
Creation date
Date file modified
Camera make
Camera model
x resolution
y resolutin
resolution unit
Image size
Metering mode
File source
Focal length
Max aperture value
Flash fired
I have unchecked any of these that I have found ANYWHERE in Bridge, but cannot get rid of them. This information is definitely not necessary on the website where they will be posted.
Does anyone know how to get rid of these items. It is a real pain to try to remove them from the xml file when saved to disk (and there are a LOT of photos to process.
I am using OSX 10.5.7 and supposedly Bridge is up to date.

Hi there!
I have found a much easier way to fix this, and you don't have to start over by building your web galleries in Photoshop. You just have to alter the code a little bit.
By all means, create your way cool web galleries in Bridge, but look in the "resources" folder that Bridge creates when it makes a web gallery. Inside the "resources" folder you will find a file called "group.xml". Open it in Dreamweaver or whatever you use and view the code. Scroll down until you see <item>. The next lines will contain all that pesky information you want to delete. For example, you might see <title>filename.jpg<title>. Simply delete the file name so that you end up with <title><title>.
That's it! Repeat for all the information you need to delete, or write in something better. Then hit F5 to refresh the code.
Even an artist like me can do it. No geeky talents needed. Enjoy.

Bridge CS4 Web Galleries - Adding New Web Gallery Presets

Hi. How can i import new web gallery presets into Bridge CS4, for example from lightroomgalleries co? Im on a French Win XP and Photoshop CS4. I know i have to create a folder within Common Files/Adobe/Bridge CS4 Extensions/Adobe output Module/mediagallery/resources/templates/. If i see it right, i have to create another styles folder within that? I manage Bridge CS4 to offer the imported preset in the presets menu, but the results look generic, not like what the preset should do according to the description on the web site. So what can i do?
Are there other sources for other gallery presets?
I would also like to know how to set the name that the Presets menu uses. Ive seen this .dat file which seems to control the names for the menu, but wasnt able to change the name appearing in the menu.
For that, I had copied a complete style like 03filmstrip, changed the xml files and renamed the folder to 09filmstripVariant. Thus it appeared with the original name, but at position 9 in the menu. I didnt find out how to make it appear with a new name.
In these names for Bridge gallery presets, are there certain characters i must avoid like underscore, minus or blank?
Thanks for all clear info!

Hi all It is still possible to create webgalleries and contactsheets in CS4, but you have to copy some files and folders from a folder called Goodies which you can find on you install disk or download as extras from Adobe.com. In the "...Goodies\Optional plug-ins" folder there is a OptionalPluginsReadMe.pdf where they among other things write: "1. From the Photoshop CS4 install disc, drop the //<language>/Goodies/Optional plug- Ins/Automate/WebContactSheetII plug-in into the //Adobe Photoshop CS4/Plugins/ Automate folder 2. From the Photoshop CS4 install disc, drop the //<language>/Goodies/Presets/Web Photo Gallery folder into the //Adobe Photoshop CS4/Presets folder and then restart Photoshop."

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

Im trying to publish a web gallery to BC, my settings seem correct but I'm still getting an error: FTP transfer failed ' unknown error'. Techs on BC, say FTP working fine. Please help!

Hey peeps,
Im trying to publish a web gallery to be hosted on BC. Despite having what seem the correct settings im getting an error: FTP transfer failed ' unknown message'. Have checked with techs on BC. They say FTP working fine that end.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried connecting to another FTP server in Lightroom?
For example, if you get a free Flickr account, can you login to it and upload a file to it?
If you can't upload to any server, then you have a general FTP-in-Lr problem, but if problem is only with BC then, well, it's time to start scrutinizing the BC settings..
PS - All my FTP'ing plugins have an enhanced FTP settings test feature designed to help you debug FTP settings, so another option is to download one of them, for example:
robcole.com - FTPAggregator
and experiment with settings tester:
To get here, you have to click 'View / Edit Additional Settings' (in plugin manager), then choose 'New' or 'Edit' from 'Sync Pairs' drop-down menu.
If test is unsuccessful, enable verbose logging (top section of plugin manager), and review the log file after test, or send to me.
If you have a problem running plugin, please contact me directly:

IWeb and Web Gallery

what is the difference between iWeb and WebGallery in iphoto. I am getting ready to revamp my old mac website and don't want to mess it all up.
Can I use them both together???

iWeb is an application for building websites.
A web gallery published from iPhoto is purely for publishing photos.
You can link to a web gallery from your iWeb built website or use the web gallery widget in iWeb to do this.

Square thumbnails in web gallery?

I love the ease of Aperture's web galleries but they would look so much more professional if there was an option to crop the thumbnails to a square without changing the large image. Does anyone know of a way to do this with Aperture?

I'm not clear why it would look more professional if
portrait shots and landscape shots were all cropped
to square. I'm no pro, but I can't imagine posting my
photos that way even for friends & family, even as
thumbs.
I just like the way it looks, I edited a web gallery after exporting as an example:
http://homepage.mac.com/greenldr/Portfolio2/index.html
This took a lot of time after the export and would have to be redone each time I updated the page, thus I was looking for a way to do this in Aperture. I would definately appreciate any help.

Multiple subtitles in Web Gallery

I have 5 albums in Aperture. When I create a web gallery, I want show each album with a sepearte subtitle. How can I do that ? Appreciate any help.

"when I create a web gallery" — what do you mean by web gallery?
if you mean the Aperture web galleries, Aperture web galleries can only apply to one album.
can you try to describe an example?
