Topic: Photography Website Design (now with website)

[Brian]

that's a great idea about shooting at child sporting events for parents to get cool action shots of their kid!

I just want to throw out this site www.bludomain.com - they sell templates and you can get a nice cheap one for $100 (up to $800 for a shopping cart and password protected galleries) and can put different galleries in there.  My wife uses them (she is a professional photographer).

I just made a huge update to my site, although you probably can't see it.

I switched from simpleviewer to flickrviewer (http://www.sweeting.org/mark/flickrviewer/)

This now allows me to simply change and rotate the pictures that appear in my web galleries through my flickr page, whereas I was previously updating both.

Highly recommend this, however if you use multiple galleries you might have to turn off caching on the php.

For anyone who has Dreamweaver/Fireworks, there's a very good template available from Project VII called Image Gallery Magic.

Check out the various styles and transitions...it's really quite advanced, although individuals photographers can customize it to their needs.

Really enjoyed all the galleries posted here!

I just finished a pretty basic photography website/blog/portfolio


Not sure on if I like the design completely but it only took me about 1/2 a day to get it done.

here is mine...
it's about $150/year (half off 1st year if switching from Flickr) but I think it's worth it.
