The photo gallery has had an update. The new version should be quicker to respond and from a management point of view it is also easier to edit.
To view the gallery, click on the Picture Gallery option on the menu bar. A drop down list of albums created in the current year will appear allowing you to go straight to a particular album. Simply selecting the top level Picture Gallery will display a page containing a thumbnail header to the current years albums from which you can then make a selection from here.
When an album is selected, all the images in the album will be displayed as thumbnails with a maximum of 40 per page. If the album contains more than 20 pictures you will see navigation buttons at the bottom of the page. By selecting an single thumbnail, the image will appear in a lightbox view. From here you will also be able to navigate to the other images on the album page you currently have selected.
Alternatively, to view the entire album, select the View with PicLens option at the top of the album page. This will provide a flash viewer that will allow you to watch a slide show of the entire album, or you can select images individually.
I’ve made this swtich as Gallery2 was often too slow to display pages and it was also a lot more work to manage. I hope you like the new Gallery, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to add them below.
