I have used an older version of AlbumWeb Pro for years now as the basis of online photo albums[galleries?]for myself and my gal-friend.
We are in the process of updating and adding to them right now.
I have been somewhat disgruntled with this app because it is a bit clunky, and also has to have become a bit outdated by now.
But, I really like the format hierarchy of a front page with index pages and finally image pages, plus the ability to customize the appearance of the output.
My gal-friend and I each have an album online made with this software:
http://gailbuck.com/
http://www.mrcorrell.com/
I cannot find any online album software that says that it can give me these capabilities of handling the photo groupings in a similar manner, plus the customization abilities.
So, for that reason, plus just wanting to learn about web design, I am wanting to design my own albums.
This project is probably a bit complex to start learning with.
But, it is my reason for wanting to.
I'm thinking that I need to find or make a template set that will allow the album to be built with.
I understand that I will need to learn a lot of basics that I have little to no understanding of.
One question:
Are those online albums "galleries of albums", or " albums of galleries"?
So, can anyone point me to existing applications that can do the job I want done,
or better yet, point me to where I can begin my search for Dreamweaver templates that could do the job?
One final question:
Am I off in La-la land?
