A simple way to create an elegant gallery of your best photos hosted on Flickr.
- A webserver that is capable of executing PHP scripts
- A Flickr account
Copy all of this repositories files to your server.
- Open
includes/html/head.htm
and enter a sensible title for your new website and put it in the<title>
tag. - Open
includes/html/foot.htm
with your favorite text editor and replace my details and profile links with yours. Delete everything you may not want to publish. - Open
images.txt
, enter the IDs of the photos you want to publish, each in a separate line. - Launch your favorite web browser and navigate to
http://yourserver.com/flickr-gallery/generator.php
. This will parse yourimages.txt
and build your website. - Done! You should be able to see your site at
http://yourserver.com/flickr-gallery
Repeat steps 3. and 4. whenever you add or remove any images to your images.txt
.
I am using a slightly modified version of this gallery on my own website at http://jan-gerd.com.
