life as a dog…

It’s time for another website update.  Everything but the raw photos has been moved off the mobycat domain.  Well, it’s time for the photos to move.  It’s taken me a while to find something other than Coppermine that I really liked.  I don’t know how many different software packages I’ve gone through trying to find something I like.  The winner is… Gallery 2.

Gallery 2 looks a lot cleaner to me than Coppermine.  It also seems to be quite a bit more customizable (though I am still figuring out what all I can do).  Plus, I’ve seen some screen shots from Gallery 3 – it looks much better.  Gallery 3 is in Beta, however…and I really don’t want to mess with that when I’m dealing with over 3,500 photos.

It may be a little while before it’s actually up (and linked from the main page).  It’s just a matter of uploading all the files and actually naming them.

If anyone is familiar with Gallery 2, I do have one question (a problem I can’t seem to figure out).  I want comments available.  I have them checked off in the admin settings.  But I can only see/add comments when I’m in admin mode.  If I go into the site in guest mode, I can’t see or add comments.  Anyone have any idea?
