To make the Kingston gallery link back to the index of galleries page work again I had to dust of Sea Monkey and use it to change the link.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-37958521764971073202013-09-03T06:21:30.071-04:002013-09-03T06:21:30.071-04:00Thanks for the catch: new name for the index galle...Thanks for the catch: new name for the index gallery needs a new link.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-9047373666088809092013-09-03T02:25:51.928-04:002013-09-03T02:25:51.928-04:00Carl, a little glitch:-

I think that DI gallery may be the only one that uses that specific format (out of Bridge Output Module) so I could pick up the resources again and generate another format that we know is working. Glad to hear the pictures read well on the tablet--I don't even own a tablet to test-view on. On the Flash galleries not offering a link back to the index page--it just isn't an option, or not one that I've been able to find after trying several times. However, I now have access to DreamWeaver and Flash, though I don't know how to use them, so customizing those galleries will become an option when I get a chance to learn the new programs, but that isn't going to be near the top of my agenda for a while.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-77012568767790464152013-09-02T09:05:48.922-04:002013-09-02T09:05:48.922-04:00Carl, I like the new look and know that it will lo...Carl, I like the new look and know that it will look even better when you are finished with the transition so that the presentation of the various galleries is more consistent. <br /><br />I went through all the galleries on my 10" Android tablet (Samsung Galaxy) and everything worked fine except for the "Gallery of Drive-in Theaters" which would not draw properly on the tablet--the filmstrip overlays the pictures and the navigation arrows. By the way, the drive-in pictures look fantastic on the tablet.<br /><br />On some of the older galleries the link "Return to gallery page" does not work.<br /><br />One more thing--it would be nice to be able to navigate directly back to the gallery index page from the gallery itself. <br /><br />Edd Fullerhttp://photography-in-place.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-47253377007103675362013-09-01T17:26:17.733-04:002013-09-01T17:26:17.733-04:00OK, thanks.

Assembling the collections of individual files again to run the automation will be 90% of the effort needed.Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-23256006596544595812013-09-01T17:18:06.332-04:002013-09-01T17:18:06.332-04:00Carl, I just checked back: It's the Off-Topic,...Carl, I just checked back: It's the Off-Topic, the Ruskin, the FL OT, the Carnival Color and the Autumn Suite (here I stopped) galleries at least that require flash now - and those had made me curious, so I visited them. The others work without flash.<br /><br />If you can get Muse do what's necessary, its certainly the more time economic tool - with dreamweaver you can get yourself entangled in all sorts of internet black magic, where one improvement causes other things to fail in certain constellations - I went through this hell with my bread job mapping website.Markushttp://markus-spring.infonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-82013600035826310642013-09-01T17:02:27.665-04:002013-09-01T17:02:27.665-04:00Markus, thanks for the tip on iPads and Flash: I d...Markus, thanks for the tip on iPads and Flash: I don't have one, and in fact my smartphone is an old, pretty low IQ Palm Pixie. I know from instruction videos that I can very easily have Muse make slideshows that are simple html, on the primary menu-linked pages. I don't know how to do it as a free-standing gallery folder like the ones generated by Bridge Output Module. Come to think of it though, I can have BOM create html galleries as well: the 107 Theaters gallery is one of these because I wanted to pick up the theater ID's from metadata in the RAW files and this wasn't an option with the Flash galleries available, happened automatically with this non-flash option.<br /><br />Of course CC includes DreamWeaver and I've already downloaded it. I just thought Muse would give me a much quicker start and refresher on web page creation. Eventually I'll probably be better off learning it to manage a site as extensive as mine. But Muse looks perfect for quickly creating and putting up special-purpose, project-oriented sites hosted at Adobe.<br /><br />Oh, wait...are you saying that all the galleries now for some reason require Flash, or just the actual Flash galleries?Carl Weesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291898089206705608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33929660.post-29542543889975779122013-09-01T16:02:13.514-04:002013-09-01T16:02:13.514-04:00Carl, the new layout is a big leap forward - I lik...Carl, the new layout is a big leap forward - I like it being very clear and terse. There's not much worse than an overloaded website, but some gallery generators don't share our preferences for straightforward designs.<br /><br />One thing however I'd re-think: The galleries now work through flash (of course, as this is from Adobe, too). But flash does not natively play on iPads - and so you might loose quite a number of visitors, if there is no pure html fallback. Maybe you should do some research on the possibilities you have with Muse. Markushttp://markus-spring.infonoreply@blogger.com
