Gallery Implemented

Its been a long time coming but my new photo gallery is here with a great look, a nice set of functions, an easy system of updates and album additions and pretty links to make it easier to share the locations of albums and individual pictures over messenger or e-mail with friends and family.

The system is powered by gallery and the development team are credited in my sites’ footer. It marks the end of the old basic gallery system with no cache that took a while to generate thumbnails on the fly for large albums and used up a lot of server resources doing so. You can also see a random photo picked out from the whole photo collection that may (or may not) entice you to view a wide selection of albums in more detail.

I’m currently in the process of pulling together over 5 years of photos to place in the new gallery (after calls that my temporary system was too small and the one prior not updated enough) so it should soon be rich pickings for friends and family with an interest in days gone by and those looking for the latest shots I have taken. Have fun!

    I’ve my eye on a gallery powered photo section for some time I’m afraid so software choices didn’t come into it. I didn’t in fact know you had a picture gallery of your own; I might have a mooch through your code at somepoint ;)

    Further to my original posting I have now completly finished adding to the gallery and it is up to date as far back as 2002 (when I first really started taking photos in earnest) to the present day. I hope everyone enjoys looking at the collection of over 5000 photos that now sits on this site, lol
