TTG HTML and Slimbox Galleries released with PicLens support

TTG HTML Gallery 1.2 and TTG Slimbox Gallery 2.3 add support for PicLens.

From PicLens.com: “PicLens instantly transforms your browser into a full-screen slideshow experience. PicLens makes photos come to life via a cinematic presentation that goes beyond the confines of the traditional browser window. With PicLens, browsing and viewing images on the web will never be the same again.”

PicLens is a browser extension for Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer that provides a slick and immersive 3D image viewing experience.

Visitors with the PicLens extension installed in their browser will be able to activate the feature in the same way as on sites like Flickr or Facebook, or they may choose not to use the feature, and simply browse the gallery in the usual fashion. Visitors without the PicLens extension can use the gallery normally.

Download TTG HTML Gallery 1.2.

Download TTG Slimbox Gallery 2.3.

Install the PicLens browser-extension.

TTG Client Response Gallery 1.0 released

TTG Client Response Gallery is the selection gallery steroids, and strives to ease the back-and-forth between photographers and clients.

The gallery employs FormToEmail.com’s FormToEmail PHP script to collect data from clients, including image selections, image ratings, individual image comments and more. The gallery employs Slimbox to allow large-size image previews without disrupting form input, and also allows clients to download a copy of each image to their own machine.

For a full list of features and to download, visit the TTG Client Response Gallery page.

Also, I’m looking for feedback on how to better shape this gallery into the tool it’s meant to be. Please feel free to deposit your two-cents into the gallery’s threat at LightroomForums.net.

Cheers,
theturninggate

TTG MonoSlideshow Gallery 1.34 and Multi-album gallery tutorial

TTG MonoSlideshow Gallery 1.34 adds support for the albumWidth and albumHeight tags, which control the size of album thumbnails, and also allows a thumbnail filename to be set for use as an album thumbnail.

I’ve also created a video tutorial on how to merge separate MonoSlideshow galleries into a single, multi-album gallery. The same principles may also be applied to SlideShowPro.

Download TTG MonoSlideshow Gallery 1.34.

    LRG Complete v1.0 - Coming soon!

    Hey Everyone,
    I have been working on a new gallery named LRG Complete. It is called “complete” because it is a complete all-in-one web gallery portal that you can use to display multiple galleries all from one location! Similar to Matt @ the turning gate’s Index galleries, but much much easier to implement. The best part is that all you have to new is export a new gallery from Lightroom to your server and this template will categorize and sub-categories everything automatically and generate a nice gallery menu for you automatically. Instead of sending people different links for different galleries you can now send them just one! Im very excited about this gallery and I am working hard to get it out to you all ASAP! I expect to release it in the next few weeks.

    There are also a few other galleries in the works as well as updated to previously released templates, so keep an eye out for more new releases and updates.

    LRG Joe

    TTG HTML Gallery 1.12 released

    TTG HTML Gallery 1.12 features major code rewrites for better functionality and presentation both in Lightroom and on the web. It also introduces the onImage Navigation system, compatible with Firefox, Safari, Opera, IE6 and IE7. I think this is a much better release than 1.0, and prefer it to Lightroom’s HTML gallery. I hope you’ll agree.

    Download TTG HTML Gallery 1.12.

    TTG Selection Gallery 2.0 released

    TTG Selection Gallery has been updated to 2.0. This is a major update and marks the gallery’s transition to a Lua architecture. The gallery utilizes TTG Slimbox Gallery 2.24 as a foundation, and therefore exists in feature parity with that version, supporting annotations, color labels, ratings, ID plate, a wealth of customization options and more.

    TTG Selection Gallery is constructed with the photographer-client relationship in mind. The gallery allows clients to mark selected photos, and to submit them with a message/comments to the photographer as an email form. Selections and then be easily isolated in the LR the Library’s Find pane.

    The gallery employs Slimbox, allowing clients to view large-size images in an overlay without disrupting their selections.
