What's the best software for making image galleries available to clients online? Decent security and roles are a must; previewing and selecting images; downloading multiple images (or a whole gallery) as an archive; etc. etc. WordPress integration ideal but not necessary. Closest I've seen so far is Gallery2. Any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

no suggestions? bummer!
- Anthony Citrano
You can always use Flickr and then use the various Downloadr. I still look into this further. Basically you are looking for something like Lightroom pick / reject lightbox functionality in a web app, correct? I use basecamp for design review selection but obviously photography is slightly different in the sense that you are going through a lot of images usually.
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
The other thing that I often used is simply use LightBox Pro http://slideshowpro.net/ - I've used it before for clients to pick photos on my extranet then they just download a zipped file store on the server. I still prefer using Basecamp for comments back and forth though.
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
btw, Posterous allows you to download image as a zip - but then again, it's not a lightbox - but it kind of can do it. I don't know what Gallery2 is and judging from the interface is just sucks. For extranet purposes I think that http://basecamphq.com is your best bet. Also btw I have seen a lightbox before that's focus to photographers but I can't think of the name right now...
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
Your SlideshowPro link / Lightbox remarks are a bit confusing - I've used SSP on my portfolio site for years - but don't know of it having user/security functionality, ability to create private galleries, let people select/shop-cart pictures they like, download them as a ZIP, etc. Basically SSP is Flash presentation software; I don't know of any commerce, selection, download, nor review functionality within it. But maybe I'm 'fused.
- Anthony Citrano
I asked your question on Aardvark: http://vark.com/t/8c2987 "Can anyone recommend a web app that behaves as a photographer-to-client extranet + will allow essentially for the client to login, look at a lightbox like interface to pick / flag / rate / reject photographs?" and both people suggest http://smugmug.com - I didn't know that they have those features when I tried them a few years ago. Maybe you should take a look. And yes SSP may be a bad answer. my bad
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
This shows up on a search: http://www.zenfolio.com/zf... - looks interesting but I still can't find that one site I was thinking of. Sorry. My bad. Sorry I couldn't be as much help as I could. I still recommend http://basecamphq.com :)

See-ming, no need to apologize, I really appreciate your input and thoughtful assistance!! :):)

Found another one (meat for portfolio creation really but they have a sweet UI): http://neonsky.com/services - Learned about it from browsing an artist web site today: http://www.paulbalmer.com
- See-ming Lee 李思明 SML
I've also used built-in modules from Adobe Lightroom for Flash driven goodness... but in general I find it easiest to post a flash gallery module on a Wordpress, and then your client can just comment directly on WP? These will all lack zip selected images functionality. Does Gallery2 support that? #smlask

All you have to do is take some photos – which you never delete from your camera – so when someone finds your camera at the bottom of the gorilla pit they are able to locate you and return the lost property to its rightful owner. http://www.andrewmcdonald.net.au/a-picto...

I'm the opposite. I tend to ignore posts with photos (unless the post itself is just a photo). Why? The image usually detracts from the text and people spend time talking about the picture and making it clear they didn't bother to read the text or link.

- Alix Whitmire
No, the pictures try to build an emotional connection with the finder. It helps convince a not-so-honest person to return the camera rather than just keep it. It won't stop a real thief, but it could tip the odds in his favor. A sticker can't do that.
- Alex Scrivener
There should be a place in your camera for email address, like cell phones have "Home" so when you lose it, someone can call you. Hmmmm.

I wouldn't ever think to go through pics, but if I found a lost cam (or phone or whatever) with an address clearly visible on it, I'd pop it in the mail, or call/email someone, no problem. Same holds true for some lost and found places. They might call you if there's easy contact info, but I don't see them taking the time to flip through photos to figure out how. Maybe do both?

I think it is about time to get rid of most coins. Do we really need pennies and nickles or even dimes? They are almost useless and have very little value. Does anything actually cost 1, 5 or 10 cents anymore? Would be a lot easier if prices were rounded up or down to the nearest quarter or dime.

Toast that comes out of the toaster was clearly destined to become toast because that is what it has become. We cannot look at a piece of bread and know that it was meant to be toast until it has become toast but once it has become toast we can say, 'Ah, yes, this slice of bread has become toast and thus it clearly has existed in a pre-toasted state up until now.' And thus: toast goes in the toaster.
- Akiva Moskovitz
This flies in the face of Schroedinger's Toast Theory which suggests that bread placed into a toaster exists both in a toasted and untoasted state that can not be determined until the damn thing pops up. It's one of the most delicious smelling theory in all of science.

:-D But Akiva, if I'm following you correctly, you might as well say excrement comes out of the toaster, because the toast "was clearly destined" to be eaten and subsequently excreted. You could go a step farther and say the nitrogen from the excrement goes into the ground, where it is taken up by more wheat, to make more toast, to become more excrement. Thus the universe is excrement in a constant state of becoming itself.

- Robert Scoble
Robert, I have no problem with you not liking FriendFeed as a service or not getting anything out of it anymore. You had valid points about forums. What bothered me was the language and the tone of your initial post and screenshot that singled out and attacked the people of FriendFeed. You don't have to like the service or find it interesting but there are more respectful ways to communicate that...ways that don't personally offend the rest of the users and cause them to get defensive and angry.
- joey
joey: you're right. I was wrong. But I'm not getting fed here anymore and I didn't communicate that well.
- Robert Scoble
Sorry Robert, ever read the story "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" ? Check it out.
- Itachi
I guess it's like falling in love with a four-star Thai restaurant that slowly switches to some other kind of food.
- Robert Scoble
The worst part is that my "best of day" is dominated by people posting all the different reasons your post was wrong.

Mehmet: I've read it many times. So you're right. Fine. FriendFeed is awesome. Now what?

- Robert Scoble
Bruce: I've already found it, you don't need to find it for me.
- Robert Scoble
I still like you, Robert. We've had good conversations. Just... Perhaps you could have handled it a little differently, is all. Best of luck in whatever is next and I'll see you around the net.

The food's the same here, you just made a serious mistake by stiffing the wait staff. Face it Robert, you're a fast food kind of guy.
- jcunwired
jcunwired: I enjoy fast food as much as anyone but I do try to temper it with veggies.
- Robert Scoble
Not that there's anything wrong with that. If you need tech "news" you don't want to hang out on a site that's exactly the same kind of awesome it was two months ago.

Oh good lord, a blanket apology/explanation is plenty sufficient. He doesn't need to come to each of our houses and prostrate himself before us and beg our humblest forgiveness. We need to learn more from that Baboon that Benson played in the Lion King.

- Robert Scoble
My "more wrong" blog post was (in tone) bait. My comments here are real.
- Bruce Lewis
I swear Robert you like to toy with people because they are so predictable : )
- Owen Greaves
Why indeed?
- Cliff Gerrish
Because he has the delusion that he can.
- jcunwired
Is this what it is going to come to? People ripping each other apart until there is no one left alive when the lights are turned off?
- Mathew™ one of a kind
jcunwired: I couldn't "make" FriendFeed despite pissing off thousands of people over on Twitter by constantly talking it up. I guess everyone forgets that. Same over on my blog. And I've shown FF to thousands of people during speaking engagements. But, no, all that work didn't help make FriendFeed hyper popular so, no, I don't live under any delusion that I can, then, get anyone to leave. FriendFeed is awesome and nothing I say can change that.
- Robert Scoble
At the Boston FriendFeed meetup I was the only one who found Robert Scoble through FriendFeed. Everybody else found FriendFeed through Robert Scoble.

you could say that that it's a sad sack of going nowhere, now that the team was acquired and told Steve Gillmor like 8 times in the last Gang that a bunch of the best features here were too much for the 300 million nuffnuffs that use Facebook.
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
if you wanted to say something about FF not being awesome, that is.
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
Marshall: oh, you were listening to the latest Gang. There was a LOT of news in that Gang and Steve and I were wondering if anyone would notice.
- Robert Scoble
it was hard to notice with the thick fog of PR bs. mostly seemed like bad news and non-news. would love to know what I missed :)
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
i don't mean to be un-understanding, FB is a huge org with hundreds of millionso f users, billions of $ at stake. i'm sure i'd speak cautiously too
- Marshall Kirkpatrick
Marshall: yeah, if I were FriendFeed execs I would speak carefully as well. The transcript comes tomorrow, we'll dig through it and highlight anything really useful in the Gillmor Gang. There were a few things that clarified where they are going a bit.
- Robert Scoble
Transcript? FriendFeed execs? Did an interview happen with Bret, Jim, Paul, Sanjeev?
- Bruce Lewis
Bruce: we had Bret on last week.
- Robert Scoble
OK, well...welcome back, then Robert. http://www.youtube.com/watch...
- Josh Haley
That's great. Will there be a transcript?

Bruce: yes, Gillmor told me today it's coming "soon." Hopefully tomorrow.
