Gallery

Wouldn't it be nice, I thought, to have a place to display some photos.

I have an account on Flickr, but they behave too much like a social media site for my taste. I tried pBase, but they are fee-based and their trial storage amount was not enough to handle a very small gallery. Life's too short to deal with cheapskates.

Google's PicasaWeb is where I landed as a first cut. It has all the required functionality, but the GUI is a typical amateurish Google mishmash. Apple has spoiled us.

Years ago I balked at PicasaWeb's intellectual property sign-over. But I've since decided to let them grab whatever they want. No biggie. The images are all lo-rez (10%) anyway, so grab away. If anyone fancies one of the images, though, let me know and I will send you a full-rez copy (~15mb).

PicasaWeb allows me to geo-tag all the images, so my travels can be charted on the globe.

All that remains is to follow the link in the right sidebar to fooGallery. Right now its just for the birds. So click on the eagle picture to open the album. Click a thumbnail to enlarge an image, or select 'slideshow' to view 'em all.
