I have finally got a photo gallery up and running. It is still a work in progress, but contains many of my photos from the last two years. I am continuing to add more all the time and will hopefully begin adding Christine’s photos soon as well. You can access it by clicking on “Photo Gallery” in the “Links” section on the right of the blog homepage. Also, if you click on the “Random Image” on the right side of the page it will take you to the gallery embedded in my blog. The embedded version doesn’t yet look as good as the native version, but I’m working on it.
For anyone that’s interested I am using Gallery 2 which is a great program with a clean layout. It allows for viewing photos and videos and includes a slideshow feature, allows for rating photos, and leaving comments.
I tried Gallery 2 last year or so, too, but it cost me took much time to get it right, then the layout didn’t fit, my server didn’t have enough space to keep thousands of pictures… then I switched to Flickr, doesn’t cost the world, easily adaptable (in wordpress, at least), and I can’ shoot enough pictures to really savor the pro account to the fullest.
Your gallery install breaks the main content area in FF btw (no way to get around it except have smaller pictures when they’re displayed within the blog)
That’s interesting. I have been extremely happy with Gallery 2. I run my own server so space isn’t an issue and the only cost is my time…
What do you mean by “the main content area in FF”? What is “FF”?
