I am in the same position as you and i am also looking for an alternative. I've been told that flash will not operate when the net is being accessed from an ipad or iphone. A bit of a concern.

How I do it. See my Wellington wedding photos (external link) website for how it looks.

PS I'm not looking to or even considering changing the way the gallery pages work or redesigning the site. I'm happy with my website and how it works and this is only for non flash devices such as iphones, ipads, blackberrys etc.

Since BlackBerry browsers suck (or at least used to), I made a very very basic html mobile site for folks on their phones. It has no tables, no font size specifications, and the gallery is a simple column of just 12 images.

I could make it fancier but I'd then start to wonder if it worked on certain devices and that defeats the whole purpose really, IMHO.


Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here (external link). Cursing at your worse-than-a-map reflector? Check out this vid! (external link)

Indeed, the iLife isn't very flashy. :(

That's weird. I tested in IE8 and Firefox, plus i've used Safari on the iPod and chrome, and it works fine in all.

Would anyone else with IE9 mind checking that link?

I use a Lightbox2 javascript library, it can cope with various sizes, not sure if it resizes images that are too large. You don't configure it with xml, it's configured through the html page in a very simple way.

Since my site is wordpress it's easy to run a different theme/skin that's designed specifically for mobile devices. I don't, since mine seems to work ok, and i'm not concerned if the images show perfectly if people are on a phone.
