[Noisebridge-discuss] Presenting http://gallery.noisebridge.net/

[Patrick Keys]

The files themselves are directly accessible.  I don't care if somebody 
hot-links to individual files.  The format is:
http://gallery.noisebridge.net/[album name]/[image name]

Because the files are directly accessible, you can easily create a 
javascript embedded slideshow gallery or other gallery on any other site.

Also, if somebody wants to mirror the entire gallery, I will gladly 
setup a cron script to scp or rsync everything.

The gallery script reads the EXIF data from individual files and caches 
the information in a text file for each album.  So if the images have 
photographer and description information, then that information can be 
displayed.

Right now, EXIF information is displayed by clicking the image and then 
clicking "Information" at the bottom of the browser.  But I can modify 
the script to make that information available directly under the images.

Another option to consider for details for each image is to use a file 
naming convention.

I still need to fix the right-click "Open In New Window" issue, but it's 
on my list.
