Photos Galore!
Last week, I finally got a photo gallery installed, Coppermine.
I tried to install Gallery, but had a lot of trouble with the configuration. I found this in my Practical Web Projects magazine. Well worth the $14.00 for an English magazine. The best, consistent magazine devoted to Dreamweaver that I've found.
I proceeded to post pictures like crazy. I still haven't read the documentation. I was just trying to post pictures that I've not been able to publish en masse. I'll work on the customizing this week.
The workflow is great. I use ACDSee to resize the pictures, create an upload directory in Coppermine, FTP the files, then use Coppermine to build the album. Voila!
I replaced my index for www.sterling-myson.com to only show the links to the pictures and the blog. I'll work on a CSS style-sheet to have a consistent look. I'll need to get familiar with the Blogger and Coppermine style-sheets first.
