Renovated photo gallery
For the past year or so, I’ve been using Gallery for running my photo gallery. However, I felt that I wasn’t really utilising many of the features that it had to offer, and that it was perhaps a bit too much of an overkill – all I wanted was something that displays photos; something lightweight.
So, I decided to write my own from scratch. Well, not entirely from scratch, since I’ve integrated (a rather heavily modded) Lightbox into it.
The resulting PHP code is just 138 lines long, and chews up a lot less resources than Gallery. I also think it looks a bit tidier.
Anyway, take a look at it here. I’ve also added a few more albums to the gallery.
Feel free to comment about the new layout and please provide any suggestions on how you think it can be improved.
Hey I love your pictures! You’ve captured a truly romantic Sydney, and reminds everyone of how great a city it is
Btw, sometimes when I clicked on pictures to enlarge, it didn’t work - everything just faded. Other times the picture would load, but only half of it will be on my screen and I can’t actually scroll down on the active picture…
Thanks! Though I never intended to try to capture a truly romantic Sydney…
Hmmm… not sure why some of the photos won’t load properly. My assumption is that people will be viewing the photos at a high enough resolution so that things don’t fall off the screen. If you can view some of them properly, you should be able to view all of them properly…
Weird…
