Hi, all. We're getting lots of requests for G2 demo sites, so I figured I'd start a thread for people to post links to their G2 installs so that we can get a feel for what's out there. Post your G2 link here and a short description of what it's about. We're especially interested in descriptions of any customizations that you've performed (new modules, template changes, new themes/layouts). If you've done any of that, try to give us an overview of what you did and why. Thanks! Please post only sites using Gallery version 2.0.2 or newer.
More demo sites: |

http://omahanightlife.com/gallery2/ Built with the siriux theme. Embedded in site using header/footer includes. Various tpl modifications for page layouts. New Items module added to siriux theme. Minor mods to navigation, breadcrumb, & slideshow. Backend template mods for photographer/uploader ease of use. Basically all backend pages that can be accessed by the photographer user group have been edited so that any fields which they should not be able to edit are hidden (to all except admin user group) and visable fields have edited verbage. (example: see attached image) |

Glad this threads back, the old one seemed to vanish when the new website was launched. Mine, embeded in wordpress using wpg2 using an edited theme based on matrix, and using elements of siriux. Really trying to make it a bit cleaner (removing the sidebar) but still retaining the functionallity and the info for comments/exif http://www.gonewalkabout.info/gallery/ also added the fantastic google map module currently in development |

Despite the lack of nearly any customization, this must be one of the finest G2 installations I have seen yet: http://www.mariposaHD.tv/gallery (hint hint: free hi-res photos of South American supermodels) |

Here is my site: http://james-griffin-photography.com/content/v/galleries/ It uses a customized version of the Siriux theme with some tweaks to the code that generates breadcrumbs and title tags. I also added some code to place the item keywords in the meta=keywords tag for search engines that still pay attention to that. |

This is our business gallery2 site for our remodel jobs. The only tweak we have done with this is to add our own frame around the picture. Visit - htsolutions |

Hey, Looks like my gallery is working finally. Visit www.finescenery.com to have a look. I've done some customization including new custom fields. My site has panoramic images and simple photos. For panoramic, I have the field of view (horizontal and vertical) stored in custom fields as well as panoramic layout. For simple images field of view is computed based on the focal length of the lens and the dimensions of the imaging sensor. Also I've added common custom fields such as polarizer used(yes/no), focal length, shutter, diaphragm, etc. |

Please visit a site I created for a client: http://www.sharynintihar.com. The site displays some of the artist's work. The theme is based off the default Matrix theme, though I modified it quite a bit. The home page uses a variation of the site's main template. I also modified the album and photo templates to change the look to what the client wanted. This is my first experience with Gallery and I am very pleased. Gallery2 allowed me to create this site very quickly compared to what it would have taken me to code this by hand. |

I've finally tweaked our gallery to match the rest of the site -- I think it turned out fairly well. It uses a customized version of Matrix. |

It is very nice but the credits say powered by Gallery 1 and not Gallery 2 ? ? I'm referring to the Wedding Portrait gallery listed several messages back. Scott |

we shouldn't discuss performance / features etc. in this topic. this thread is dedicated to demos and comments about them. e.g. complimenting the customizations etc. |

We have recently launched a new Gallery Web Directory - http://g2-sites.com - where you can promote your websites which are powered by Gallery. Despite the name you can submit both G1.x and G2.x sites. Submissions can include a description of the site, a thumbnail and a link to your site. We don't intend to compete with this forum. But, rather enhance the possibilities of people finding good examples of the types of site thay are looking for. Sites are categorised by Gallery version and embedded environment. If we don't have a category that matches your implementation, let us know so that we can address it. We aim to show the many and varied implementation that are possible. Just our way of giving a little back to the Gallery community! ------------------ |

I switched from igal when G2 came out Here's mine - http://gallery.ibao.net. It is customized from the siriux theme and uses the google map module. A special theme is given to the main page which uses panoramic highlights. This is done by removing the width restriction for landscape photos in the ImageMagickToolkit.class such that all landscape (including panoramas) will have the same height. The main page highlights are the cropped to the same ratio by hand and added to a hidden gallery below. |

Well I'm using G2 for a personal gallery that I'm starting to fill up with pictures. It's at: http://gallery.moonshineridge.com I started with the theme from Pedro Gilberto, and made a bunch of customizations and some custom imageframes. Also changed a little of the core code so that slide shows are recursive, downloads prompt with a "save as" dialog, etc. I guess the most unique mod is the screen size choices in the upper right. By choosing one, the window is resized/positioned, the number of thumbnails displayed is changed, the size of the images views is changed, and the number of microthumbs is changed. It's all done with a cookie so the viewer has that set as their "mode" unless they change things. It's also tied into the sizing for the slide show. I basically did this so that I wouldn't be punished for relatives with small monitors -- |

Almost there now.... Check out the postmap and photomap - OK, I got a LOT of populating to do, but the principle of the thing works. I plan on sorting through all my notes and posting a "what I learnt" here, because I learnt a LOT! The main thing being DO NOT think you can install gallery2 on a PC, then port it to a Linux host - it cannot be done! Cost me a whole weekend, totally wasted. BUT - it's going now. Thanks to the Gallery team for the 2.1 version 2, infinitely better than the first 2 release. (PS - don't forget the little "drop down" on the right - no one seems to notice it!) |

I've just added the gallery script to my website. It is a fabulous program! I have adapted it for some slightly different usages from pure photos galleries. Take a look: This one is for wine making: http://www.trustyguides.com/features/wine-making-recipes/ This one is for diabetes recipes: http://www.trustyguides.com/features/diabetes-recipes/ This one is used to illustrate yoga poses: http://www.trustyguides.com/features/bikram-yoga-poses/ Notice that each gallery has a custom album template in order to blend into the site. It was created by adapting the Sixiux theme. Hope you like it! Chris |

My Gallery 2.1 install is here: http://photo.wapoc.com It's essentially a showcase for my photography. This includes pictures from around the UK and France, plus a little stuff from elsewhere. They're shot with a Nikon D70. I've incorporated the Google Maps user contributed module, the new rating system and as much other stuff as I feel fits in. I enjoy following the updates and finding new stuff to add. Comments on both the content and the setup are particularly welcome! Cheers, Rob |

I could have sworn I already submitted my site as a demo, but I don't see it here, anyway: I've modified the theme in order to incorporate it into my website seamlessly, I changed the link to full sized originals so that it opens in a new window (as they were way too big to fit within the confines of my websites layout). and I'm sure there were a couple other tweaks, but it's been so long since I first submitted my site I can't remember. |

I don't know if my site merits being a demo compared to many of the others up here, but here goes anyway I customized a few minor things (I think most of them are self-explanatory), all of which I was able to do by searching the forums and asking for help (I don't know anything about programming, I can just follow instructions!). And I'd like to thank all those who post their modifications and advice! And a special thanks to Mindless, for his invaluable help!!!! That pretty much wraps it up I think! Thanks again for this great (and free -Amaury P.S. |

hi all, here's my effort at customising gallery 2.- its a gallery of cake pix- i must say i think gallery2 is a brilliant piece of software! i made a few changes to the the matrix theme & created my own theme (so's i can do a multisite install & do a different theme for each gallery). i added ny own logo image & tried to blend it in with the rest of the page - & i added a couple email links. not much, i know, but i'm pleased with it! i downloaded the "joomla starter kit" from the joomla site which installed apache & php etc on my own pc. that way i was able to run gallery on my own pc at home & do all my learning & customising at my leisure. - thought that might be of interest to somebody? |

My travel photo gallery is a major part of the Travel Signposts website (http://www.travelsignposts.com/Destination/) and has recently been migrated from G1. - It has a three column layout with G2 (sans sidebar) in the central column, included site navigation in the left (no images, all CSS buttons), Google adsense in the righthand column, and bottom navigation, copyright etc in the footer. The layout is adapted from the three column layout I used in G1, but it's simpler to implement in G2. I had a range of captions already present in G1, ranging from basic two words to descriptive sentences. File names remained numbers though, so I couldn't use them as titles. I decided to use the G1 caption in all three fields as a compromise, as it would have been too much work to input them all again (at this stage, anyway). To make this practical, I truncated the title in the album template to 30 characters so that it would act like a teaser to the summary. In the single photo page I similarly truncated the title to 65 characters to get a similar but more informative effect. This is clearly not ideal, especially as it results in a very long title in the title tag appearing in the browser bar, but it was the best compromise I could think of. Of course, to get a similar effect to the album page in G1 I could simply turn off the title, but I quite like the two weights of text. The only problem I have had so far is with the Google sitemap cutting off after 4000 lines or so. Hope this is of help, I found reading about other people's experiences was a great aid to me when (finally!)I faced up to the change...:-D Regards, Tony Page T R A V E L S I G N P O S T S |

www.lightpainter.co.uk Photography by Tom Gardner My G2 site for showing and selling my photography portfolio. It uses the excellent PGtheme by Pedro Gilberto, and I've integrated the Paypal Checkout module and ecard module, both of which work well. I've experimented with integrating with ZenCart for a more fully featured e-commerce option, and while it worked ok, I haven't had time to get it integrated thematically etc, so it is not currently active. The main thing I am longing for is a virtual album feature (like Flickr sets) so I can allocate the same photo to different thematic albums rather than duplicating them. Tom |

Here it is integrated with Joomla. I had to edit the classic theme style sheet. I am not entirely sure about the registration just yet (if I should disable G2 registration since I have the g2 bridge installed on Joomla) http://www.amcorona.com/component/option,com_gallery2/Itemid,29/ |

How did you set it up so that all thumbnails are aligned nicely on one page WITHOUT the date? If you look at mine, they are listed vertically.... me don't like that. http://www.amcorona.com/component/option,com_gallery2/Itemid,29/?g2_itemId=290 |

You should post your page in the showcase album rather than in this topic. I think we'll soon mark this topic as unsticky and it will get lost somewhere in the forum topic flood. |

It rocks!
