Gallery Software
I searched the Internet for so long to find how to create the perfect photography website. It is generally a hard process, you want the photos to be displayed with quality that will help the viewer want to buy them. However the images themselves must not take to long to load as this will prevent the users from staying and looking in the first place.
The Internet is a great place to find code and Google now even has is own code search which could help you to find out how to do it. Thumbnails with a java roll over or click function will do the job very nicely, but is a little fiddly. Plus the fact that if you are not so used to a computer programming you want to be spending your time selling and taking photographs not learning strange computer languages.
I finally came across a neat solution which cost a few pounds but helped no end. Its a Flash pluggin called Slideshow Pro. Once you have installed it there are a vast amount of options which help you create a gallery which suits your needs and website. For example it has the ability to change all of the colours to whatever you want them to be. All the options are placed in a simple to use menu which is point and click.
The photos themselves are fed to the gallery via an XML file, however this is nothing to be scared of a simple to follow manual is provided with the software and a new gallery can be set up in minutes of purchase.
One of my efforts can be seen here. I really recommend this product its easy to use and gives great results. You probably could do this yourself but to be honest why bother, its all there for you.
