Anyone know of a good web photo gallery utility?

    • Hey everyone!

      I'm putting together a webphoto gallery for a client of mine, and I have about 100 pictures, however I want to use Roxbox, however it takes forever for me to create all the code necessary to make the Rokbox gallery page for them. Furthermore, I'd like to have a feedback button (or submission form) as part of the gallery, and the Adobe Photoshop Web Gallery utility I used doesn't seem to interface properly with the "wrapper" option in Joomla. The pages appear properly within the wrapper, but the buttons don't work the same way Adobe designed them to work in a non-CMS environment.

      So, does anyone here know of an application, plug-in or component that works with Joomla 1.5 that performs those functions? Even if I don't get the feedback portion, being able to rapidly create a Roxbox gallery would be amazing. :)

      Thanks!

    • I agree with Jem. I have started to use Phocagallery after using Gallery2 and RSGallery2 and Simple Image gallery, as well as trying several others. It is brilliant! And it has several addons which add to its eae of use and excellence of display.

    • Plus the developer takes support seriously!

      A couple of my suggestions made it into the latest releases. 8)

      I think you can insert your gallery into an artcle and then have the commenting on said article as a work around. Just a thought.

      Hmmm... ok, I'll try that.

      Thanks JEM and others! I was experimenting with the "Ignite" gallery and it works nicely. The next version that comes out will have a comment feature, so I'm looking forward to that release to see how it works.

      I'll give you all feedback on how Phoca behaves. If there are any other options you all think of, please share.

    • Thanks for the feedback thus far, "Ignite" is a new one for me, I'll be sure to check it out.

      Sam's idea was pretty good, you could use Intense Debate for that....

      (It's what RT uses for the Blog.)

      Anyway, keep us posted.

      Cheers!

      :D
