A photo gallery is basically a collection of your pictures and home videos, which you can organize on your website. You can view and manage your photos and upload new ones in the gallery. Photo galleries offer functions of uploading and editing as well as organizing the uploaded pictures.
There are mainly two ways to make a photo gallery website:
Photo Gallery Software: - There are many software available, some of which are freely downloadable. Picasa is one of such software. Community server is another, which works on the asp.net platform. One needs a license for its commercial use. In choosing your software, check the platforms it supports and the protocol it uses for the upload operations. Don't ignore the licensing strategies used by the software. See if it supports iptc and geotagging. These are processes concerned with associating metadata to your images. Does that sound complicated? Actually, it's not very difficult. Firstly, these software come with a good explanation of how they function and going through their specifications helps you understand them better.
Photo Gallery Website Template: - Templates give you a ready-made framework to upload and manage your photos. Again, some templates are absolutely free, while others have to be bought. They provide you with a layout to put up your photos.
For those of you who are tech-savvy, there are options to create your domain, design a template for yourself, and start uploading photos. That will take some web designing skills and some programming using javascript and css. Templates will help you design your site and give web developers a sense of full control in the design and functioning of their website. After setting up the template, uploading photos is easy!
