This photo library is an example of a data driven site.
It is very much a work in progress. A great deal of learning by experience is going on.
The site tries to be an easy way to manage and present pictures.
Some of the thinking involved is presented on the
Design Notes page. For a
more complete experiance an account is required.
The photographs are listed in a database and grouped into stories.
A photo can appear in many stories. The story pages are automatically created
from the database.
Hand crafted web pages pages can also be listed in the database. When
a list of the available stories is presented these web pages are
included in the list.
Each
photograph has information about the photograph that can be changed and updated
such as who the photographer is, when and where the picture was taken etc. Also
associated with each photograph is a way for people to write and update
comments.
Logged in users can
add stories and remove the stories
that they created. There is no way (yet) for a user to add a
photograph.
These pages are still under development and you are helping us test them.
Please report problems and suggestions to the webmaster.
