Hi all !
I'm in need to build photo gallery website to showcase my portfolio.
My requirements are minimal : it must be simple, clear design centered on pictures.
For the moment I'm looking at X3 Photo Gallery but I'd prefer
to work locally and upload when needed.
Any help / advice from your own experience will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Igor.
Hi Iga, I don’t know X3 and don’t know what you mean with your ‘but’ about it. But I am quite happy with Zenfolio and have no problems with uploading, locally or unlocally (?). My criteria for choosing were a minimal amount of decency and calmness as well as esthetic in the lay-out of the site, in the sense that it doesn’t look like a buy/sell magazine of oldtimers or real estate properties. So Flickr and 500px fell out of my selection, as well as Picasa which is Google :(
Thanks Otto !Quote:

Please, let me know what plan of Zenfolio you are using ?
Thanks,

Oh I don’t build in advance. The first time I started I have chosen a general lay-out, background colors, styles and so on in zenfolio. Then you can make galleries with certain themes and I add my photo’s every time I have something new in the diverse themes
Take a look at Squarespace. It's easy to use and has templates that can be customized.
Thanks for your advices folks !
In the end I landed on Wix site. Seems to work right.
Best,
Igor.
