  • Bug with Bridge CS5 output /web gallery - renames files with ASCII

    has anyone found a fix around this ? It makes my HTML galleries useless since it renames all the original files in ASCII code and there is no work around this.
    I know that this issue has been going on for a while but Adobe hasn't done anything about this yet

    Solved!
    This works for Windows.  I imagine the Mac solution is similar. Props to William Zauscher for helping find an answer.
    I take no responsibliity for any damage caused to your computer, Photoshop or Bridge...
    In Windows, browse to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Bridge CS5 Extensions\Adobe  Output Module\mediagallery\resources\scripts
    In the file named "galleryCreator.jsxinc" replace the lines:
    AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile,  createMode)
        var alteredName;
        while (true)
             alteredName = "_";
            for (var i=0; i<10; i++)
                 alteredName += Math.floor(Math.random() * 10);
             alteredName += ".jpg";
            var f = new File(filePath +  alteredName);
            if (!f.exists)
                break;
         return alteredName;
    ...with the following:
    AOM.AmgGalleryCreator.createUniqueFileName = function(filePath, jpgFile, createMode)
                    var alteredName;
                    while (true)
                                    alteredName = "_";
                                    alteredName += jpgFile += ".jpg";
                                    var f = new File(filePath + alteredName);
                                    if (!f.exists)
                                                    break;
                    return alteredName;
    You can cut and paste the above.  Just save a version of the original file somewhere in case of screwups...
    Cheers!

  • Web Gallery - image file size

    When I upload my images to the Web Gallery the file size of the image is greatly reduced. From 1.8MB file to about 450K - for the download or subscribe options. The image size is not changed, but the file appears to be more heavily compressed. Has anybody else seen this? If so, have you found a way to upload the original file size so subscribers will get your original file?

    Sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you got an answer to this question. I am desperately trying to figure out how to post my pictures in their ORIGINAL SIZE to my web gallery.
    Thanks!

    I am not expert in these, but please check out the following things and see whether it would solve your issue. (All these changes can be easily rolled back in case I'm wrong :). So make note of what you do)
    As per your httpd.conf, you have chosen an automatic configuration of Apache by OWCI installer itself. What it does is create an imageserver.conf file in a separate directory and these settings will be included in your httpd.conf as you can see in the first line: Include "C:/bea/alui/plumtreeconf/".
    If you check the imageserver.conf in that location, you would find a line like: Alias /imageserver/ "C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/". This aliases the original path "C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/" to /imageserver"
    To confirm whether this is done right, check the following:
    1. Acces 'http://<server ip / server name / localhost >/' from your browser
    This should display the Apache home page (as per your httpd.conf, it uses the default port 80; so no port number required)
    2. Access 'http://<server ip>/imageserver/' from your browser
    This should display the directory structure (if its not disabled) inside your 'C:/bea/alui/ptimages/imageserver/' folder. Also confirm that all the subfolders are accessible.
    3. If all the above is right, it means that your imageserver settings are right. Please check your portalconfig.xml for the correct settings: For example, <setting name="HTTPPort"> should be 7001 in your case. If its something else, change it and restart Weblogic for the settings to take effect.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can an Adobe Bridge web gallery slideshow file be inserted in Dreamweaver as part of the homepage?

    Hello.  I am designing the homepage of my first website in Adobe Dreamweaver CS6.  And I would like for the page to include a slideshow that automatically plays as soon as a visitor opens the webpage.  I am interested in using Adobe Bridge to create the slideshow using the feature "web gallery."  The tutorials that I've seen describe how to create the web gallery slideshow, then show how it appears when uploaded to the web as an html file through FTP to a server.  It appears as a separate page.  And I notice that the web gallery file is an index file.  I would appreciate knowing how to include the html file as part of the homepage.  Will simply renaming the file from being "index.html" to something like "my_first_slideshow.html" make possible including it in the site structure?  Or will doing so cause it and the files attached to it to be inaccessable when viewed in a browser?  If it can be included in the site, is an <iframe> needed to be in the code for the slideshow to fit into?  Thank you.

    Maybe you best try this question in the dedicated Dreamweaver forum?:

  • Bridge CS5 HTML Web Gallery renames images.

    When creating an HTML Web Gallery (using ‘Lightroom’ template), Bridge CS5 renames the thumbs and large images to an arbitrary number.  The caption reads as the original file name, but the actual image has a new name.  This is problematic, as my clients will right-click selected images from my galleries to save and forward for approval, but the file name is not the same as the original.
    Is there any way to fix this little (for me--BIG) problem?

    No way to change it, it's a "feature."  (Not!)
    File a bug report.  It makes web galleries useless for me.

  • Insert Photoshop Web Gallery swf file into Dreamweaver

    So i tried to take a shortcut, and created a flash photoshop
    web gallery and placed the "gallery.swf" file into my html file in
    Dreamweaver. However, it is showing a blank white screen (i'm
    guessing it can't find the images?) but when I view it on my hard
    drive, it is working fine, just not in dreamweaver or any browser,
    even after I upload to my server. Any help would be GREATLY
    appreciated!! I've also tried pasting the body html code from
    "index.htm" that photoshop creates, as well as move my image files
    to the root folder where the swf is, but that doesn't work either.
    I have my scripts in the same directory, and not in
    subfolders.

    That page is very different from the code you posted and I
    know nothing
    about Geoff Stearns' FlashObject code.
    For the above link, I see nothing in the source code that
    attempts to
    load a .swf file. However, it is linking to
    AC_RunActiveCon.js file in
    the wrong place:
    GET /dyers/assets/flash/pages/AC_RunActiveContent.js HTTP/1.1
    Referer:
    http://www.micromediapubs2.com/dyers/portfolio.html
    HTTP/1.x 404 Not Found
    The file is actually here:
    /dyers/Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js
    So if you actually do have a page in the dyers/ folder that
    links to a
    .swf file, just make sure the link to the .js file is
    correct.
    Most likely, change this:
    <script src="assets/flash/pages/AC_RunActiveContent.js"
    type="text/javascript"></script>
    to this:
    <script src="Scripts/AC_RunActiveContent.js"

  • Web gallery download file name

    I noticed when I renumber photos in Aperture and upload them to a web gallery the number stays the same until I download the photo. When the photo is downloaded the name reverts to the original file name. Since these are clients I don't want them to see the original file names but rather the number I assigned in Aperture.
    I guess the other question could simply be: How do I permanently change the photo name after I import it into Aperture?
    Thanks,
    Jeffrey

  • Web Gallery - need file name on thumbnail and large image

    I think I have tried all the CS3 templates, but haven't found what our client is requesting. Is there a template that shows the file name on both the thumbnail and large image, and will make large images of 600-800 pixels (long dimension)?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dan Clark

    Thanks for your reply Nini. Yes, I had gone through all the presets and options. Was hoping I might have missed something, or that someone knew a trick/workaround. We've been using Table-Minimal for years, which is my overall favorite. I like to ability to make a large image, but it can't do what the client is requesting. They've made a list of selects from some very large galleries (200-300 shots each), and now want to jump directly to the shots they've previously chosen, in order to show their coworkers. I've also considered "Add Numeric Links", but I find that either confuses people, or they give me that number, instead of the file name/number, which makes a lot of extra work for us.

  • Told by adobe that I should purchase photoshop elements 13 to extract photo from video but it will not even open a video file -- what am I missing?

    I am supposed to be able to extract a frame from PSE 13 but it will not let me do so.  Specifically, Select File > Import > Frame From Video is supposed to allow this but when I click Import, there is no Frame from video option.
    Here are the instructions from the Adobe website:
    You can play a video from within Photoshop Elements and grab frames to edit and save as images.
    Select File > Import > Frame From Video.  
    Browse and select the video. 
    Click Play.The video starts playing in the Frame From Video dialog box. You can use the playback controls to display the frames your want to grab. If you find the audio distracting, select Mute. 
    Click Grab Frame.Photoshop Elements places the grabbed frames as images in new files., ready for editing. 
    Click Done. 

    This is strange because I found the following on the adobe PSE 13 website (but the Select File/Import does not include Frame From Video:
    You can play a video from within Photoshop Elements and grab frames to edit and save as images.
    Select File > Import > Frame From Video. 
    Browse and select the video.
    Click Play.The video starts playing in the Frame From Video dialog box. You can use the playback controls to display the frames your want to grab. If you find the audio distracting, select Mute.
    Click Grab Frame.Photoshop Elements places the grabbed frames as images in new files., ready for editing.
    Click Done.

  • Opening Imacon Files: What am I missing?

    Whenever I try to open in Photoshop an Imacon fff file (the origin was an Imacon camera back), I get a much smaller preview. And it does not open as a RAW file (as do our Phase One files)
    I have the Imacon3f.plugin installed and I see Imacon 3f as an optional format.
    Any advice?
    Thanks,
    Gary

    Hi Gary,
    There are two "stages" to importing images in FlexColor. Once they have been imported already (either imported off a CF card, or tethered - depending on which Imacon back you have?), they will not show up in the Import window any longer. To browse already imported files, click the thumbnail button, just to the right of the import button near the top-left of the main FlexColor window. The thumbnail button has the little 9-square grid on it. When you click on it, the thumbnail window will open - usually by default it points to a "Scratchpad" folder on your desktop. The popup menu at the top left of this window (probably will say "Scratchpad") can be clicked and "Choose Location..." will then allow you to navigate to a folder with your .fff images. Here is a screenshot (the thumbnail button is the right one, below the Save button on the main window):
    http://www.sublimephoto.com/misc/flexcolor_choose.jpg
    Then you should see thumbnails of your images. At that point, highlight the images you want to convert to DNG and click the "Save..." button on the left side of the thumbnail window (not the one on the main window). In the resulting Batch Save dialog that opens, change the Mode from "Normal" to "DNG" as in the following screenshot:
    http://www.sublimephoto.com/misc/flexcolor_save.jpg
    Then click "Save...", choose a destination folder and that's it. Your files will be batch converted to DNG. Hope that solves your problem!
    Also, dragging-and-dropping an image into FlexColor tells FlexColor to use it as an image overlay to aid in composing, for example, a studio setup shot for an ad. You can move and scale the image overlay, as well as change its opacity. It is simply a compositional aid - that is not how you open an image for processing. You have to use the thumbnail "Scratchpad" window to do that. When you double-click on a thumbnail, it will then open in the main window and all the tools will be active. However it seems as though you have virtually no experience using FlexColor so for now, I would suggest converting your images to DNG and using Photoshop for your processing. When you have more time, it would be worth exploring FlexColor more as it can do a very good raw conversion. Or, for that matter, Hasselblad's new Phocus software.
    Good Luck!

  • 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.
    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.≤br>
    Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

  • Color difference in web gallery

    I am having trouble matching color from my images in Bridge or PS (CS4) to the photos that appear when I make a web gallery using CS4.   The photos have been converted to sRGB and look vivid in Bridge or Photoshop.  However when they are converted into a web gallery and shown on a browser they are dull and lacklustre. 
    However if I upload one to my gallery on Mobile Me they look just fine.  It seems like Web Gallery in CS4 is doing something to them.
    I am using Safari and CS4 withMacbook Pro.   Is there something I am missing I wonder??  Any suggestions?

    >> I have opened the files in Safari, Firefox, Photoshop and Preview and they display correctly - even when profiles are changed
    that's expected in Safari, Photoshop and Preview
    Safari and Preview both automatically honor embedded profiles and Convert to Monitor RGB (you can't confuse them if your files have embedded profiles they get displayed correctly) — Safari and Preview both apply Monitor RGB to untagged files — I don't think we can change this behavior
    Photoshop can be confused in any number of ways by users opening tagged and untagged files, but it sounds like the same thing is happening correctly (Ps is Converting Source Space to Monitor RGB) — if we tell Photoshop Do Not Color Manage a file, it in essence applies/assign/assumes its "Working RGB" profile
    anything in CS4 saving for web (galleries) is more than likely stripping the profile(s) by application default
    the test would be to open the problem (web gallery-generated) file in Photoshop and first see if it has an embedded profile — then Assign various profiles until you hit the correct profile — if someone doesn't understand how profiles work then that likely whooshed out the other ear by now, but that is a very presice step to ID the problem
    if someone is having this problem, this is how to figure out what's happening — learn how your workflow deals with profiles/color spaces
    the way to fix it would be making sure your Save For Web (gallery) Converts to sRGB and strips the profile (CS4 Adobe default setting)

  • Modify Web Gallery - Paypal Integration - Filename Extraction

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm embarking on a mission to try and create a custom web template that will integrate Paypal's "Add to Cart" buttons on the "Details" page of an exported Web Gallery. It only requires modifying a Web Gallery template file and adding the below code to the footer of the Details Page:
    <form target="paypal" action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
    <input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/enUS/i/btn/btn_cartSM.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
    <input type="hidden" name="add" value="1">
    <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_cart">
    <input type="hidden" name="business" value="[email protected]">
    <input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="Purchase Standard Resolution Image">
    <input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="imagename">
    <input type="hidden" name="amount" value="3.00">
    <input type="hidden" name="shipping" value="0.00">
    <input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="0">
    <input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
    <input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="USD">
    <input type="hidden" name="lc" value="US">
    <input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-ShopCartBF">
    </form>
    The problem is, I need to substitute the image's filename for the "imagename" variable in the above code. I'm looking to extract the filename, but I'm unsure of how Aperture populates that. I'm sure there's a div name that they use that I could slip in there, but has anyone who has modified a Web Theme done this before? I know CSS modifications are easy, but I'm talking extracting certain field names that Aperture uses.

    I'm not seeing an "Add To Cart" button on your page - just a "View Cart" one.
    The reply from PayPal is correct in that there is no code that specifies the image size. The image itself dictates the size as you will discover if you use a custom button hosted on your own site.
    Here's the code:
    <form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post">
    <input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_s-xclick">
    <input type="hidden" name="hosted_button_id" value="Value-Code-Here">
    <input type="image" src="http://www.domain.com/Folder-Name/Button-Image.png" border="0" name="submit" alt="PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!">
    <img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
    </form>
    However, PayPal buttons do work on iWeb built sites so I don't know about the relevance of their reference to CSS.
