voyager Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 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 I have been somewhat disgruntled with this app because it is a bit clunky, and also has to have become a bit outdated by now.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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted October 17, 2013 Report Share Posted October 17, 2013 Personally, I'd suggest looking at Wordpress' Galleries functionality: https://codex.wordpress.org/The_WordPress_Gallery It's super easy to set up, and you can arrange things in whatever way you like, since you can have multiple galleries and the interface for uploading images and working with them is well done.
