New Gallery!

If there’s one thing I’ve wrestled with for a long time it’s my gallery.  I’ve never found one the really makes me happy or show cases my art the way I would like.  Well, hopefully my search is over.  I think I’ve found one that does what I want… I hope.  It seems to be easy to upload images and keep organized.  It does some neat things like folders within folders should I need them and displays a random image to better show of the contents in the folder.  I can also have comments on the images too… if I can figure that one out. o_O

The pain in the ass thing is bringing over all images in my current (old) gallery.  Some will make the move while some will get left behind.  So I encourage everyone to go and check the new gallery out and let me know if there are any issues or things I’ve forgotten to bring over.  The images are out of chronological order right now and to be honest… I’m not sure I’ll change that.  I sort of like it that way for some strange reason.  I’ll have to slowly go around and give all the images proper descriptions, but for now it’s fine.  Plus I image that people will be stopping by to see pictures and not read words. ^_^

Update:  Comments now work in the gallery!  Yay! It’s a general gallery comment system.  You can’t post a comment on an individual picture.  Oh, and I added a drop down in the side bar so it’s easier to look at my past posts.  ^_^

    Well, as long as everything makes it into the new gallery eventually, i like the new one. does the to naughty folder not have anything in it at the moment? cause it just sent me back to the whole gallery again.

      There’s nothing in it right now. I was thinking of putting any drawings that are more loli in there. Just in case some aren’t in to that. Wondering if I can lock it to only those that want to see it.

    I like the new setup. Especially how the Chipettes have their own section. Though, (and please excuse me for being anal) I noticed that some of the pics in the ‘Original’ section are not original characters (TT geisha gang, ZZ, Jam [awesome pic, btw], and some others). Please feel free to ignore me if this was intensional. Also, I’m intrigued by the ‘naughty’ section as well. Whenever you get that working, please let us know how we can gain access.

    After looking back at all of the work that you have on the site, it struck me how much you have produced over the years. I’d like to express my appreciation for your sharing it with us. I recognize this is a hobby and that you enjoy doing it, but you have provided us with tons of entertainment and asked for little (if not nothing) in return. So, thanks for all you’ve done. I don’t think you drink, but the next time I raise a glass, I’ll toast you in absentia.

      Sorry, ‘intentional,’ not ‘intensional.’ (Again, forgive my anal retentiveness.)

      You are very right. Some of those in the Original folder aren’t my characters. I didn’t want to make another folder of characters that aren’t mine but I did draw (although that Tiny Toons one should be moved… and now it is). Maybe I’ll just include them in the Commissions and Trades folder.

      Yeah, I like having the Chipettes folder too. I seem to be drawing enough of them to give them their own area. The more I draw of a specific character, the more likely it is they’ll get a folder.

      And you’re quite welcome for the pictures. I have been doing this hobby for a long time now and have amassed quite the collection. I even left some pics out because I feel they don’t show well any more. Gotta show what’s best. ^_^

        Yeah, I noticed you left some out. Was a bit surprised by some of the omissions–the Tammy Monsters Inc. solo pic didn’t make the cut!?. Aww….

    I use an RSS feed to find out when you’ve posted something, so I tend to come here for the words. I wish the gallery had an RSS feed. I could probably make some using a feed generator site.

      I honestly don’t know the first thing about RSS feeds. Is it easy to make one using this feed generator site thing?
