    I see. So is there any other places here that users like me that are using default templates can submit their websites :)?

    No, this forum is about the software (and related themes) not about content. So we are interested in what people have done to make a unique look and feel but not so much about what pictures they might have on their site.

    As sbillard said not on our site (btw, the showcase is not this thread, but the section on the website). But of course there are places on the net where it is about the photos/images itself. Do a web search on "photoblogs" or the like.

    Thank you Acrylian, I'll do so :). But still I think it would be great if we have a place on zenphoto where all photographers that are using zenphoto web gallery can submit their websites.

    This was initially based on zpGalleriffic, but has been heavily modified for ZP 1.4.x, as well as to rip out the galleriffic components and replace them with more usable code. Galleriffic was completely croaking on some albums that had well over 100 images, so... I wrote a variation on hoverbox that uses half the markup and half the images, added a slightly modified form of picbox for the full screen view, and ended up with this:

    http://www.lokiphoto.com/events/20101204_chernova/

    It's still a work in progress as I replace more and more of the original theme, but I think it's getting the where some of the css and js would be quite useful to others.

    @Amin: Well, make a custom theme design that shows some creative usage of Zenphoto and you can. We will never put up a showcase for the photos itself. Our site is about the CMS, not the content you use with it.

    As said there are other and better places that are about the photos itself. Besides Zenphoto is by far not limited to "photographers" (and also more than just a "gallery").

    @lokkju: Well, not valid yet, for the same reasons. To clearly the theme you used. Sorry.

    Just to add to this thread. One reason we will not post content type sites it to minimize our workload. We would have to examine each such proposed site (and there may be thousands of them) to be sure the post is not just a veiled spam.

    @acrylian what is funny is that my modifications so far are much more of departure/distinction from the base Galleriffic theme then many of the other themes are from each other. At any rate, as I said, the only changes you can really *see* are the hoverbox/picbox stuff. Underneath, there is some more nice stuff, such as something I think should be in core - the ability to use multiple domains for image retrieval. farm1.domain.com, farm2.domain.com, farm3.domain.com - as long as your server can handle it, it can drastically speed up page load time for many images.

    Well, sorry, of course I can't see the technical stuff underlying. I don't doubt that. But I have to judge the design as will any visitor to the showcase (the name says it..). And that is too close to the original for me. (I admit that I let theme enter the showcase in the past that where as well).

    As to your domain usage (I read about that but I doubt normal sized sites really need that), feel free to open a ticket or even better provide a third party solution as a plugin (as you apparently already solved it).

    You will understand that we can't put everything into the core. So any plugin or solution is welcome alway. Read our "Get involved" page for a start.

    Hi, I propose a galerie of sculpture of my stepfather :
    http://www.atelierscales.net/galeries/index.php

    The galerie is made with the help of Zenphoto and the rest of the site is hand made with CSS, HTML, PHP and javascript (jQuery).

    Hi all

    Here's a site I've built using Zenphoto:

    http://www.retrospectivecycles.com/

    It's pretty straightforward, the one thing I've done in addition to skinning a new theme is to modify album-edit.php. I've removed a lot of the options from the album edit screen, and added radio buttons to enable a 'sold' flag to be added to individual albums/items, using the codeblocks to store data.

    You will of course have to do this all again on every update. For the radio buttons you surely used the available filters?

    I really suspect that the "cost" of having the complete set of options for albums would be much less than the cost you will incure re-applying this change to each and every Zenphoto release that you decide to update to.

    There are filters for "custom data" which shouldbe quite adequate for your adding of the radio buttons and storing the codeblocks (although it would seem more appropriate to store the information into custom data.) Or even just put the appropriate PHP code into the codeblock to display the sold icon if the item is sold.

    Hello everyone!

    I wanted a dynamic and customizable website, and whose management engine is fairly easy to understand.
    Zenphoto brought me all these qualities.

    So I present you my photography website.

    http://pl-photographies.fr

    It is made ​​with AJAX, JQuery and the management engine is ZenPhoto.

    Again thank you to all the ZenPhoto team for their work.

    Hello

    There are some outstanding galleries built using Zenphoto. Ours is a bit more modest but fills a need. If you consider it worthy of display we will be pleased.

    If your site does not use Zenphoto at least for the gallery part of the site of course not. Seriously, it does not make sense, does it?

    http://www.warrendiggles.com/photography/ - the photography portfolio section of my website.

    The zenphoto portion was built to match the rest of my website which is custom html, css, jquery, with photoshelter shopping cart, and wordpress blog. I chose zenphoto for my portfolio over photoshelter because of zenphoto's far superior customization options and ability to control onsite seo.

    Thank you so much for the Zenphoto software. I've created my entire photography portfolio website http://photographyonwheels.co.uk using it. It's great to be able to create the gallery and other pages all in the same system.
