Thanks, Stan - glad you enjoyed the gallery layout and the photos! I am getting started on putting some other archive galleries into this format and hope to delete some very old sections of my site soon.

I went to take a quick look at the UI. Became mesmerized by the images as I 
tried out the left/right commands. . . It has been said before in many ways, 
but damn you do good work!

I like the thumbnail quiver movement on-mouseover. I like that I can use the 
keyboard L/R arrows to move through the images. As others have said, I don’t 
like having the L/R on-screen buttons moving around as the thumbnails resize. I 
want to be able to click-click-click to go through the image set, I don’t want 
to be thinking about where is the cursor and is it on target. OK as long as I 
am using a full-size keyboard, not ok using a reduced keyboard without the 
arrow keys.

Other than that quibble, a solid site with no issues on my iMac running Safari 
7.1.2 under OS X 10.9.5

After experiencing problems upgrading my blog, including some site down time, last fall I 
wound up getting professional help (in the form of a programmer) who quickly and 
efficiently resolved the issues. Some were the result of issues with my webhost. Other 
issues stemmed from some hacks and modifications that I had made over the years 
(following "cook book" type instructions because that is the only way I could 
attempt to modify code.)

Now that the site is running well I'm testing out the built in photo gallery 
tool. I threw together a quick gallery today of 100 snowflakes. I'd appreciate 
feedback on how this gallery looks on your system - not so much regarding the 
content but rather how well the gallery tool is presenting it.

There is currently only the one gallery there. The tool is not perfect but since I was 
able to get this gallery together in about 30 minutes (not counting the time spent 
selecting and prepping images) I am happy with how easy it is to put images out there. 
There are some detailed issues I still need to work out. The alternative would be to use 
jalbum or some other tool and run the galleries outside of the CCMS program. The static 
HTML galleries currently on my site are getting very old and need to go - I am hoping to 
come up with some way to easily create and update content. All I am aiming for is 
something that works well and looks OK and is not "in the way" of the actual 
images.

Comments would be appreciated - especially if it does not work properly for you.

Mark
