The Gallery
A picture gallery is the most important part of any artist’s website. The appearance of the picture gallery will be determined in consultation with the customer and virtually any design is possible. At the design stage we will determine what attributes the customer wishes to enter for each picture such as the title and maybe picture size or media and how they are to be displayed to accompany the picture.
It is essential that it is easy for the artist to add new pictures to their gallery and the GedaWeb Gallery software makes it really simple. It also allows the artist to organise their pictures into categories or groups that the viewer of the website can choose from a menu. An artist might want to group their paintings into categories such as Landscapes, Seascapes, Buildings and Portraits or maybe by media. The choice of categories is up to the artist and can be changed and pictures re-organised at any time.
Uploading new pictures to the website is made very easy through the website administration. The large images produced by digital cameras and phones can result in slow upload times to websites but the GedaWeb Gallery software makes use of the capabilities of modern browsers to resize images prior to loading up to the website thereby minimising the upload time.
Just like any website developed by GedaWeb, the Gallery software has been designed to be used on any device including a mobile phone.
