Web Photo Album software help needed

Whimbrel · #1 14-09-09, 12:58

I'm looking for a good Photo Album style software, hopefully to showcase some of my landscape images. My preference would be for Freeware that does not encroach with adverts, can someone recommend one?

Bill,

I've used jalbum www.jalbum.net in the past. This is free and very easy to use.

These days, I tend to use the built-in web album generator in Capture One, I think there's a similar "create web page" feature in the later versions of PS Elements, but this is from memory.

For uploading onto a web server, I use filezilla FTP client http://filezilla-project.org/ again, free and very easy to use.

Ah yes Jalbum! Looks very promising and a huge range of skins/themes too, what are they like regards advertising?
Thank you for responding to my request...your a very 'super' moderator!!!

No advertising at all when I last used it. If you are worried, take out another email address - your ISP usually will let you have about 10 on any one account. Use the new address to register etc. If you end up getting spammed (unlikely from my past experience with jalbum), then just delete that address.

Jalbum seem's a highly favourable option, I've now taken a good look around their website and forum and like what I've seen. Much appreciated.

I would prefer to have a own portfolio website in this case, and it should be run on my own domain.

but as per a free website uploaded i would i always love to go with flicker..because it is trusted and it will provide same function as the others...

Many thanks Dilshad, I'm still considering my option's. I'm also thinking seriously about a personalised website with my own domain name as your suggesting.
As regards flickr, I registered quite some time back, but have never posted on it. I'm more than happy using World Photography Forum to share some of my images and receive feedback and critique.
I appreciate you responding to my request, and a warm welcome to WPM.

I strongly recommend Jalbum. It is what I use myself.
