A friend has just slapped his photos up on the web using Imagevue. It looks absolutely fantastic. Flash based, but packed full of cool features. It's also very easy to use and automatically resizes photos. So it's really easy to share those photos filling up your HDD. I just thought I'd point it out seeing as though many people in here are purchasing Digital Cameras. edit: fixed link - thanks hairy.

Registered 18 years agoLooks ok, a little bit over the top if you've just got a random assortment of pictures.
The example albums are very good - the planet earth girls/hey lady picture set was mmm mmmmm. -

Nice tip MH! I usually let Photoshop do it for me and on my old site I wrote my own PHP script. Nothing advanced like imagevue though. -

Cheers otto. I personally don't think that it's as impressive as the album I linked to.

However, from what I read about iPhoto (when I was searching for an example album) I am quite impressed with the software. I like the way it simply integrates with the camera, and you can quickly and easily publish photos to the web, whilst keeping some albums stored on you HDD.
I think that Apples new logo should be "It just works".
I'm really tempted with the Apple route, and would have one in a shot if I didn't enjoy playing PC games so much. Sure they're more expensive, but I really do think that you're getting value for money.

For my work I'd use an apple if they'd let me. For home I'd also use one 'cept I can't be bothered waiting so long for games to appear on it.
Nice software though. If there's one thing Apple are good at it's putting together fantastic applications and machines that do the job you want them to without turning it into a fight.
When I want to do a proper online photosite I'd probably write something quick and painless in Flash to do the work. Like it or lump it, it's a damned good way of putting together a decent photo website (s'long as you remember to turn off Flash's horrible anti-aliasing when you import pics)
Anyway, am the walking wounded when it comes to photography this morning...

I think selling gaming on the Mac is almost impossible. I'm a *huge* graphics whore, and I love FPS based games.
Heh, well it wasn't quite as 'flash' (boom boom) that's true, though I prefer it - matter of personal preference of course.
Nem's better than me at selling gaming on the Mac. I have all the games I need and more, but then I'm not h4rdc0re like you.
So if the Mac will never see the likes of HL2, Doom3, and STALKER then I wont be touching it with a bargepole.
However... each time I see that blue screen of death I think "maybe"...
Perhaps I could do a Nem and get a Shuttle PC, spec'd for gaming and then grap a Mac for normal usage (web, surfing, graphic design, photo sharing etc. etc.)

Registered 19 years agoActually, I quite like Losty's suggestion. At the moment I have a Sony Vaio laptop and a hulking great PC. When I get some cash I could trade the two in and put the money towards a Shuttle gaming PC and a Mac laptop (iBook or Powerbook I'm not sure).
Hmm....

That's the one I use. It's great and very customisable. However, it isn't as jaw droppingly impressive as ImageVue (IMHO).

I have no problems whatsoever with compatability and OSX software is so good that the PC is now just for gaming. -
