The gallery is necessary for sites or blogs that contain large amounts of visual information (for example, photographs, diagrams, scanned pages, etc.) It helps to sort files containing visual information and organize them. The gallery also makes it easy for site visitors to find the file they want. That is why many site owners strive to create a gallery for their web resource.
Gallery creation methods
There are several ways to create a gallery for a website or blog. The first way to create a gallery is to find a ready-made script on the Internet (i.e. Html or CSS code) and insert it into the corresponding page that hosts the gallery. The advantage of this method is that there is no need to install gallery software. You can also find very interesting design solutions.
The disadvantage of this method is the need to manually write the name of the pictures in the tags, as well as insert the addresses of the pictures. This is complicated by the need to insert the addresses of thumbnail images for galleries where there are so-called previews (ie previews). With large gallery volumes, this can take a lot of time.
A variation of this method is viewing the html-code of the pages with the gallery you like and copying its script to yourself with subsequent use.
The second way to create a gallery is to download the appropriate software with an interface that will save the site owner from having to work with code. The advantage of the program is that it can work with large arrays of pictures and create previews (and therefore write their addresses in the code) independently, which greatly simplifies the work of creating a gallery.
Among the disadvantages of this method is the limited design options for the gallery, which is unacceptable for some types of websites. There are a number of programs, as well as their Russified versions, that can be downloaded on the Internet. Some of them require downloading a specific browser to create the gallery. These types of galleries are suitable for online stores where there are many product names and no original design is necessary.
The third way is to create a unique design and gallery code. Such a gallery is more suitable for a site with a small number of images, where there is a need to maintain the overall original style of the site.
There is also website creation and content update software that allows you to create galleries and then add photos online. This is very convenient for web resources, where there is a constant change of visual content and there are huge amounts of information.
