Image Galleries - Which one to choose ?

varunone
As we all must have noticed that the Fantastico section of our trap17 website admin accounts have 3 options for Picture Galleries.

1... 4Images Gallery
2... Coppermine Photo Gallery
3... Gallery

I would like to use one of these, but i am very confused which one to select.

Primary selection criteria would be The Looks
and then safety of image files.
also ease of adding images (last)

So what do you think which one should I go for ?

Cheers

Varun,

If you are going to use these galleries as standalone applications, then I'd probably suggest Coppermine. If you are looking at forum integration this topic might interest you.

My suggestion would be to do test installations of all three of them and see what you like best. Users who have experienced using one/more of them will, I am sure, post here and you can wait and see what they have to say. Unfortunately, I only need a gallery for the forums and I use a phpBB MOD for that smile.gif

Cheers!

Hi,

The only reason I am going to use this feature is to flaunt my school/college snaps with with friends and family. biggrin.gif

I cheched the demos for all three and "Gallery" seemed best to me. I am not too sure about Coppermine cause it looks like a forum and not really a gallery.

Ok ill take your suggestion and wait for some reviews. Anyways i have lot of time at hand since my domain name providers uni.cc have screwed up and the domain is pointing god knows where !!!

Thanks

Cheers

The 3 gallery's you suggested are all to big for a small album (so you must really have lots off pictures).

I suggest you build one yourself tongue.gif?

I am currently using coppermine on another website ( Ihavent got my hosting yet sad.gif ) But i would recomend coppermine. Its really great, and reliable. Ive never had any problems. Laos an added bonus is that it can me integrated with many website engines and boards, so they share the same users.

  8. Hoverbox Image Gallery
    a pretty cool way to present Images on a page (1)
    Hoverbox is an Image Gallery which I found some time ago. The feature I like the most about it is
    the effect of the "on-hover" state which changes the image from a small thumbnail size to a
    "mid-size" image. Essentially, it doubles the size of the picture when your mouse hovers on it. The
    Hoverbox uses CSS for the size change and needs no javascript to perform. In fact, it works the same
    without javascript. And... it apparently works in IE. The CSS method used includes 'hiding'
    the larger image until the 'on-hover' state is reached. As you know, IE&#....

    larger. Look below... Also, how do you for example..........click on a link, and the
