Creating Web Journals
and Web Galleries

In Aperture, you can easily create webpages of your images
and post them to your .Mac account. Your clients can then
review your work online.

This chapter reviews the two types of webpages you can produce in Aperture, and
shows you how to create them, modify them, and then post them to the web.

An Overview of Web Galleries and Web Journals

Using Aperture, you can create two types of webpages—web journals and web
galleries. Both are based on themes, or page designs, are easily editable, and can be
posted to the web.

 Web gallery: Aperture automatically creates the appropriate number of webpages

and populates them with the selected images. You can then adjust the pages to
make the images appear as you want them. You can also choose the metadata
information that appears next to each image, such as caption, name, or rating.

 Web journal: You manually arrange images and text on the pages. There are more

options available with this type of webpage, allowing for more creativity.

When you open a web gallery or web journal from the Projects panel or create a new
webpage, the Webpage Editor appears in place of the Viewer. The Webpage Editor is
where you design your webpages, including changing the theme, or page design,
positioning images, and adding text.

Note: Many of the controls are similar when working on a web gallery or web journal
in the Webpage Editor.
