Hi,

Just wanted to drop a note to say Nice Job! Looks like the start of a great product - very clean and easy to integrate seemlessly with an existing site.

I just integrated into a client's site at http://www.thegardensedge.com/zenphoto

have a look...

Really nice job on the gallery. The theme is excellent.

Update:

Gallery is now at :

http://www.thegardensedge.com/photogallery

Greg,
Nice website and theme here. Maybe you could find a better way to protect your thumbnail images rather than plastering them with watermarks... a bit distracting in relation to the nice layout going on. You do nice work.

My thoughts exactly - other than that - perfect!

I'll give image protection some more thought - thanks for the feedback...

Greg

Please tell me how the heck you did that!! I have searched and cannot find a way to make my gallery integrated into my wordpress!!! That looks really great!! Any help is appreciated in simple terms :0) ! Thanks

Mel, I didn't integrate this with Wordpress, but these are the steps I took to integrate with my existing site.

The general concept I used was to take an existing page on my site to use as the basis for the template and insert the zenphoto code where I wanted the gallery to appear.

1. Create a new theme for your gallery:

• under the Themes folder, create a new folder for your theme and copy all the files from the default theme folder into it.

• Copy an html (or other) existing page from your current site into your new theme's folder. (call it index.html for this example)

2. Replace index.php, album.php, and image.php with new versions using your index.html page as the starting point.

• open your index.html file in an editor and copy the following code from the section of index.php to the section of your index.html file:

`

nice but that's not rarelly working for me ;-(

I just want to resize the album art around my thumbnails but i can't find where to edit the values.

Is it theme based the size or some where else?

To resize the thumbnails you need to edit the file /zen/config.php

scroll down until you see the following:
`

$conf['thumb_crop'] = true;

$conf['thumb_crop_width'] = 85;

$conf['thumb_crop_height'] = 85;

$conf['thumb_size'] = 100;

`

Just edit those values. If you read the comments above that code, it'll explain [i]exactly[/i] what each one of those values do.

If you're talking about resizing the image when viewed from the gallery, take a look under the Image Processing heading of How ZenPhoto works.

whoa dude, how do embed watermark on the photo? Would love if zen photo could provide this option to the next release

Watermark is already an option.

Hi Folks,

I followed greggreiner's instructions above, but with only limited success. I understand his instructions may be dated, but I tried to follow them as best I could with version 1.1.5.

I duplicated the "default" template folder and renamed it for my site.

Into that folder, I copied a blank page from my web site and created a starting template (index.htm).

I then copied the following code from the existing index.php into the of my new index.htm:

`

OK, think I found the problem:

I also had to copy the very first 2 lines of the original files into my new template files before :

`

`

Also note that the items in and the ... are different for each of the index.php, album.php, and image.php files.
