About web photo galleries
A web photo gallery is a web site that features a home page with thumbnail images and gallery pages with full-size
images. Each page contains links that allow visitors to navigate the site. For example, when a visitor clicks a thumbnail
image on the home page, the associated full-size image is loaded into a gallery page. You use the Web Photo Gallery
command to automatically generate a web photo gallery from a set of images.
Web photo gallery home page
Photoshop provides a variety of styles for your gallery, which you can select using the Web Photo Gallery command.
If you are an advanced user who knows HTML, you can create a new style or customize a style by editing a set of HTML
template files.
