Web Gallery/Slide Show software MAC

I'd like to add flash-based image galleries to web sites.
Any recommendations or comparisons regarding best software options for this?
SlideShowPro? JetPhoto? VerticalMoon? XML Flash Sideshow V3? etc
thanks, dean

Mark:
You can get the captions to be displayed in the web gallery by running this script to move the description to the title field before you publish the gallery. After the gallery is published you can change the title back to the file name with the Photos->Batch Change menu option.
Have you considered using iWeb to create a photo page/slideshow and add the music to it. Here's a test page of such a setup. Be sure to read all of the comments on the linked page as there's a minor error noted in the script that is easy to correct.
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.

Web Gallery Slide Shows: Music and Captions an option?

The title sums up the question. Can web gallery slide shows (on my .Mac account) be made to look and sound like the slide shows i'm running in iphoto - with captions and audio?

Auto start flash gallery slide-show

Is there a way to to have a flash based web gallery slide show created in Photoshop CS 3. I have looked in the preferences and so on and can't find anything in PS help files.

Sure,
Hit File > Automate > Web Photo Gallery. After that just follow the basic wizard and let it run. It will create all the .xml files and thumbnails for you.

Dotmac published web gallery not showing up.

So I have now created 2 web galleries through Aperture 2. One shows up the other does not..
The URL it should be at is http://gallery.mac.com/cbchev68/100191 and it should be called Sushi Hunter.. The other one that is showing up is called Northwind Charters.
Im guessing there is some software bug here. If I go into Aperture -> Web Gallery -> Sushi Hunter. Then in the main window choose Web Gallery -> Visit Web Gallery, it opens Safari with the above URL and I get an error that the gallery does not exist.. What is even more interesting is that if I go into Aperture preferences, web gallery, it only shows the one gallery that actually shows up on the doc mac servers. I have to assume it is querying the dot mac servers for this data, as there is a 5 second lag or so before this list is populated.
Its as though Aperture created the web gallery, but then never actually uploaded the images..
Anyone else seen this?

Well its definitely a software bug, I just created another new album with a slightly different name and it looks like the photos are now uploading and properly showing up.

Web Gallery not showing up in iPhoto

I've set up multiple albums through the web gallery feature and successfully synced them to my .mac account. The problem: one particular gallery shows up on the .mac account but not in iPhoto anymore so there is no way to manage it/add to it/delet it??
thanks

Jim:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. By not showing up do you mean the gallery is no longer listed in under the Gallery section on the left of the pictures in the gallery are showing a blank window with an "!" in the middle?
Do you Twango?

Flash Web Gallery Slide Speed Control?

Using LR 1.1 I put together (in the web module) and ftp'd to my web server a number of images of a dog show, as a slide show. I used the basic flash gallery template that comes with LR to do this.
It works just fine for me but some of the viewers have asked for the ability to speed up or slow down the slides. Does LR have the ability to allow viewers to do that?
Or on a more basic level, can I adjust the timing of the changes before I upload the gallery?
I believe there is a speed control when creating a .pdf slide show but I can't find one in the web module.
You can see the show (if you really like dog shows, or just want to see what I am talking about) at http://bobbaron.com/OKCClassic2007BW/index.html
Thanks,

One more Question: In the downloadable templates there is Web Gallery 3: In the Samplefile the thumbnails are all rotated a litte, how is that done?

Photo gallery slide show - automatic start

I have created a web photo gallery in Adobe Bridge and successfully
opened it in my Dreamweaver site, but I want to the slide show to start automatically because it is on my
first page and I don't want people to have to click on the play button. Can someone tell me if this can be done and if so, how?
Thanks

Hi,
I will gladly help you with your problem but please give me a
link to your gallery wither as a private message or by email
([email protected]). The files here pasted are incorrect, look to
the SetSlideShowTimer() or the StartSlideShow() functions above
that are incomplete. Not mentioning that the CSS are really make
the difference.
It will take me more time to try to reconstruct your
structure, not having all the files you reference and probably not
being able to duplicate your problem because the deployment
failure.

Gallery Slide Show

Just downloaded the new software update. Is there any way to STOP the gallery photo slide show set to music ? Besides a hammer.

The only options are 1) the type of music and 2) the volume.

Web gallery not showing up

Doing something stupid, I'm sure. I have successfully uploaded to my .mac Web gallery before and have several pix/albums in there. This time, I set a password and restricted it to just me for viewing/downloading/adding to this particular album.
I can't ever see it from my .mac login page, the one with the left-hand nav bar to web gallery, iDisk, mail, etc.
I re-sent the whole album, and sent myself an e-mail to announce it, just to see if a hyperlink from the e-mail would work, and lo and behold, the private album is online. I just can't get to it any other way than from that e-mail link. Wondering what I did wrong.

Kren - probably better to post this in the iPhoto '08 forum - http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1192
launch iPhoto and click on the gallery in the source pane to the left - at the bottom of the window there is a gear (settings) icon - click on it and I expect you will find that you have chosen to hide the gallery - un-click that and sync and you should see it - as long as it is hidden you can only access it if you know the url (Logical )

HTLM Web Gallery not showing pictures

When I upload from Bridge the web gallery it doesn't show the pictures? Yet, when I export the HTML web gallery to my hard drive it does. Any ideas?

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.

Can you post Web-Gallery to a non .Mac server?

iPhoto 08 and web gallery look pretty neat.
Do you have to post the Web Galleries to .Mac or can you use a different server.
Would like to continue post our college sports photos to our campus (OS X) server using web-gallery.

Jack, I don't think you can post web galleries to a non .Mac server. There seems to be a lot of support behind the scenes that makes Web Gallery work as it does. Normal HTML doesn't work like that.
What you could do, which would bring some of the reflections-on-black look, is send the photos to iWeb and use the export HTML option (not sure what it's called) in the File menu to create a gallery that you could host on a non-.Mac server. It wouldn't look exactly the same but you'd get whatever is possible without the .Mac-supplied functionality.

Web Gallery not showing in Aperture's browser window.

Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. I create web galleries all the time and they work fine. For some reason when I create a new web gallery, instead of seeing the interface with the web preview (where you get the all the setting for customizing the web gallery and the export/publish buttons), I just see the image thumbnails in the Aperture browser. I even went to web galleries from old projects and is displaying the same way. Has anyone had this problem? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

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.
