Web photo gallery styles

Photoshop provides a variety of styles for your web photo gallery. 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.

The web photo gallery styles provided by Photoshop are stored in individual folders in the following locations:

Windows

Program Files/Adobe/Photoshop CS3/Presets/Web Photo Gallery.

Mac OS

Adobe Photoshop CS3/Presets/Web Photo Gallery.

The name of each folder in this location appears as an option in the Styles menu in the Web Photo Gallery dialog
box. Each folder contains the following HTML template files, which Photoshop uses to generate the gallery:

Caption.htm

Determines the layout of the caption that appears below each thumbnail on the home page.

FrameSet.htm

Determines the layout of the frame set for displaying pages.

IndexPage.htm

Determines the layout of the home page.

SubPage.htm

Determines the layout of the gallery pages with full-size images.

Thumbnail.htm

Determines the layout of the thumbnails that appear on the home page.

Each template file contains HTML code and tokens. A token is a text string that is replaced by Photoshop when you
set its corresponding option in the Web Photo Gallery dialog box. For example, a template file may contain the
following TITLE element that uses a token as its enclosed text:
