Getting the gallery working

March 15, 2008 | In Photos | No Comments

I’ve been working over the last few hours to get a photo gallery working on my site. It’s nicely integrated into the blog and pretty easy to navigate around. This is pretty important for me because I’m going to be focusing more on taking photos. This will give me a good place to showcase them. I hope you enjoy.

Check out the new Photo Gallery.

From a totally Web geek stand point there are a few reasons I’m excited for this new gallery set up. For ages I’ve been wanting to integrate a system that would allow me to upload photos to my site directly from iPhoto on my Mac. Since that is where my photos are stored, it only makes sense that would be the portal for getting them online

With the help of the plugin iPhotoToGallery by Zwilly.com I’m actually able to do it. By just exporting an iPhoto album, it’s up on my photo gallery with ease.

To take it the next strep, I was able to intigrate Gallery2, an online photo management software that works like Flickr but directly on my server in WordPress so it truly integrates into RJW3. By using WPG2 I’ve accomplished it.
