Do you think we might have the Gallery back in 2008?

I know the issue was the server move. I'd like to suggest that if the gallery has to be rebuilt to make it work on the new server that a different gallery builder be used. I always had problems navigating the old gallery and it never really fit into the overall format of the site. I use a package called "Express Thumbnail Creator" that can take a folder of photos and generate thumbnails and html files for a gallery. You can also use your own style sheets so you can make it look like the rest of the site. I think it cost me $35 from NeoWise. I use it all the time and it's real easy to use. As a bonus, sense it just creates html pages, it's very easy to move from server to server of even within the folder structure of a server.

Hey Code ... let me know if you'd like to try it out or see galleries I've built. Or hell, just send me the photos and I'll build the gallery pages, zip them up and send them back for installation.

I would like to see that, but even so, the gallery stuff is not up to me.

Justin is aware that it is broken, though.

Here's one of the galleries I have on my other site ..

http://www.ixengineercommand.com/units/ ... /index.php

It's fairly "bland" to match the rest of the site but you can jazz up the colors, buttons, etc.

And here's the link to the software site ...
