Introducing AntGallery701

My online photo album is now available, and not surprisingly it's called AntGallery701. The AntGallery701 will be used for my personal photo album.
Two sections of the photos were available few earlier, Sydney Nights and Taronga Zoo. Those were photos taken with Adrian.

Actually I wanted to have an online photo album earlier, however, the main problem was to find a good photo album software. I've been using ACDSee to create web albums in the past. The output results are pretty good with ACDSee software, only small modifications are needed. The main problem it's Windows software. Yes, I am switching to Mac.

Adrian suggested me FotoTime, an online photo albums service. It's not that I couldn't afford US$23.95 but I'd prefer to have more control of myself, plus the service in FotoTime feels a bit too commercial. Also, it requires Windows based software, so the answer is no.

Of course I know how to create an album by myself from scratch. Just need an image software to reside photos for me. But too complicated. I have a relatively popular website - SillyDog701, paying a third party for this photo album service seems a bit too stupid for me.

Not long ago, I bought iView Media for my photo album organising in my Mac. The output is not exactly what I want, I did not buy the Pro version. The first two outputs were first created with this software, but I can the complication after I have more albums.

So I was looking for software. Many people recommended me Gallery. I checked it and found it's just want I need. Easy to use, easy to customise, and fast. Now you can see the customised version of Gallery used in AntGallery701. Still customising.

Yeah, I forget to check the HTML photo album output by iPhoto.
