Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0

Create an animated or interactive gallery

Animated and interactive galleries add motion and flair to web pages. The Online Gallery wizard guides you through the process of adding and arranging photos, selecting web page designs, and sharing files. Enhance photos before adding them to an animated or interactive gallery. The Online Gallery wizard only lets you arrange photos, not edit them.

  1. In the Photo Browser, select the photos you want to include in your animated or interactive gallery. Or, from the Editor, place the photos you want to use in the Project Bin.
  2. Click Create  > Online Gallery to open the Online Gallery wizard.
  3. Add or remove photos in the Photos area.
  4. Arrange the photo thumbnails on the left side of the wizard in the order that you want them to appear. To move a thumbnail, drag a thumbnail between the other thumbnails.
  5. Select Animated or Interactive from the Type menu.
  6. Choose a page layout template and click Next Step. A preview of the animated or interactive web page appears in the wizard.
  7. Specify the Customize options for your web page. These options determine the title, subtitle, and e-mail address that will be shown in the gallery. If you change these settings, click Refresh to see the changes.
  8. Type a name for the gallery folder in the Save Gallery As box. This folder contains the web page and image files you can share later. If you want to change the default storage location, click Browse, and select the location where you want to save the online gallery files.
  9. Use the navigation buttons to preview the animated or interactive web pages. Some galleries do not have a navigation button; they require you to move the photos around or watch the animation.
  10. To view the gallery in a web browser before sharing it, click Preview In Browser. A new browser window opens and displays the gallery.
  11. Specify how you want to share the gallery, then click Save.
