Configuration wizard
Gallery comes with a handy web based configuration wizard.This
wizard helps to make sure that your web server and operating system
are set up correctly.It allows you to configure many of Gallery's
options while determining as much as it can from your environment.
The wizard will create an admin account for you.This is a special
account that allows you to create other user accounts, create albums,
and set album permissions.
Administrator
You start off with only one user, the Administrator (login name:
admin).This account can do anything with Gallery.Typically
you'll want to use the admin to create other users.Users can be
granted permission to create and maintain their own albums.
Albums
An album is a unit group of the Gallery.It can contain pictures and
movies.It can have specific permissions (ie, some users can modify
it, some users can add to it, etc).The album owner is typically the
chief maintainer of an album, but the owner can grant those
permissions to other Gallery users.
Adding photos to Albums
If you have the appropriate permissions, you can add photos to an
album.You can add them one at a time or up to 10 at a time using the
"Add Photos" dialog.If your server has ZIP file support, a faster
alternative is to upload a ZIP file full of photos and movies.A
third option is to specify a web page and let Gallery go and slurp all
the photos and movies off of that page for you (it'll let you pick
which ones you want).A fourth option is to copy images to your
web server and let Gallery copy them directly into your album.As
photos and movies are added to the album, Gallery will resize and make
thumbnails of them for you.
Gallery also allows you have albums within albums so you can
organize sets of albums together.You can choose which album you want
to be the highlight, just as if it were a photo.You can move albums
and ranges of photos in and out of other albums.
Maintaining photos
A photo or movie is the basic unit of Gallery.Photos and movies are
grouped together into albums.Once you have the photos in your album
the fun begins.Typically an intermediate resized version and a
thumbnail of the image are created for you.You can:
-
Add captions -
Edit the thumbnail.Gallery comes with a small Java applet that lets you select a part of the image as the source for your thumbnail. -
Rotate your photo (in 90 degree increments) -
Highlight a photo (pick a photo to represent the album in the main Gallery) -
Reorder the photos in the album -
Hide photos (so that they're only visible to the owner) -
Delete photos -
Sort your album based on popularity, title, number of comments, and photo capture date. -
Edit multiple captions at once
Maintaining Albums
Each album's appearance can be customized by its owner in a variety of
ways.You can change the title, colors, background, fonts, and
borders.You can also specify a target thumbnail size and a target
intermediate photo size (so that folks with lesser bandwidth can view
scaled versions of big photos).The number of rows and columns in an
album is customizable, as well as a variety of viewer options.
