LRB Portfolio
A comment in the HS Web post got me started thinking about creating a far more customisable and cleaner version of a ‘Website in a Gallery’ Web plugin. I’ve literally spent almost all my spare time rewriting this from the ground up since then. In fact all the code has been completely replaced the with new Lightroom 2.0 SDK code and so is brand new. Even the Contact Form has been updated to give much prettier returns.
LRB Porfolio features.
There’s a wealth of stuff changed from the original proof of concept code I had with HS Web. Again, as with LRB Graduated Filters, I’ve put a lot of work into this and approached it as a commercial venture. I am aware though that the appeal of such a gallery is relatively limited. Most people already have a website, so something that creates an entire site is less of an appeal that a simple gallery to show off. However for those looking for something quick and easy, this gallery allows you create a whole website with a little advance preparation and some text entry. To add your email address, you edit one file in an text editor once, and then export and upload.
The cost of the plugin? €15. VAT chargable in the EU. Updates will be free to current users.
Sample Website | User Guide | Support
Update: I’ve added a support thread to Lightroom Forums.
Update: Now at version 1.01.

The User Guide pdf seems to be broken. Could you double check it?

That’s not good, thanks for the heads up Andy.
August 29th, 2008 at 6:34 am
Fixed. Thanks again. It seems that it only uploaded a small bit, rather than the whole file..
August 29th, 2008 at 6:50 am
Nice idea.
Consider http://www.dynamicdrive.com/emailriddler/ as a way to have a JS-based email link.
August 29th, 2008 at 9:38 am
Hi Sean,
that’s a fine plugin for Lightroom!
Would it be possible to use Lightview from Nick Stackenburg? Clicking on a small picture in the gallery it should pop up as a bigger version and fullscreen inside the Lightview window.

August 29th, 2008 at 9:56 am
No reason why not. It’s just another take on slimbox/shadowbox/lightbox/litebox. I do actually have an unpublished lightbox gallery.
August 29th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
Hi Sean ,
Excellent work!
I was just looking at the preview on both Firefox and IE6 and i was wondering if its possible to remove the white edges at the top and bottom of the pages.
The reason i ask is when a user first opens the page by default they wont see the menu untill they scroll down a few lines and see it at the bottom, to fix this simply removeing the white borders from the top they would instanly see it..
Any thoughts on that ?
Peter
August 29th, 2008 at 1:02 pm
Cool Sean. I was in the process of updating my website using a bunch of HScrolls when you announced you were working on this portfolio project so I hit the pause button and I’ve been waiting…
Nice work…I’ll let you know when I’ve “re-updated” and send a link.
Thanks!
Andy
PS. Is your “cracked” copyright watermark generated on export from LR?
August 29th, 2008 at 2:23 pm
You must be previewing on a very small screen Peter. I’d guess that the image has popped below the text section and that’s what you’re seeing. Using a small image will solve this.
Most computers have a default higher than 1280 these days, which negates the issues.
I think there’s a margin-top in the CSS for the ID Plate which is set to 100. I debated adding in a slider for this. I’ll add it as a feature request.
August 29th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
I use Jeffreys Configuration Manager to generate a TranslatedStrings.txt file that has Cracked set as my watermark font..
Here’s the text of the file:

User manual says:
Copy the LRB Portfolio.lrwebengine folder into the Web Galleries folder. Place the
Template folder (LRB Portfolio Templates) in the folder Web Templates.
I don’t see any Templates folder in the Zip.
August 29th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
They’re definitely in the zip, I’ve just checked it. Maybe put the zip in a folder and unzip it there?
August 29th, 2008 at 6:20 pm
Ok, I tried unzipping in a different way and it created the two folders, but the templates folder is empty (which is probably why it was never created in the other process). Are there suppose to be templates files in there? or is that where they will get stored after use?
August 29th, 2008 at 8:12 pm
This looks perfect for what I need. Is there anyway to add a music file?
Thank you.
August 29th, 2008 at 9:25 pm
For playback? I’d need to add some kind of player..
I’m not sure it’s feasible with this kind of gallery. Even SlideShowPro has to be manually set up for audio..
August 29th, 2008 at 9:31 pm
I’m out at the moment. I’ll check when I get in later. I didn’t actually look in the folder, just look to see that it was there. There should be 2 templates there. If not, I’ll upload the zip again.
August 30th, 2008 at 2:44 am
Anonymous….
Try downloading again. You were correct, the templates were missing. I think when I tested the double click install for Mac, it moved them and I hadn’t noticed.
If you’ve used the 5 dowloads up, please reply to me using the download email you were sent.
August 31st, 2008 at 12:45 am
I’ve been using it a bit but not yet online and I’m very happy. Showed a number of wedding photographers and this would be perfect for a lot of peeps if it had a mp3 player for a song…..
Thanks for a great gallery.
August 31st, 2008 at 4:27 am
Tom,
Making a flash music player would take a little work, and implementing XML to pull audio from should be doable, but..
The gallery is multipage and the player would load on each page, starting afresh each time…
The only way I can think of would be using frames, which would mean a redesign of the layout. And of course they recommend you don’t use frames..
August 31st, 2008 at 7:18 pm
Hi. Thanks for the template. Just setting it up now. 2 problem – first could register on the forum – tried about 20 times but always told be that I input the wrong verification – strange. Secondly the gallery works fine from within Lightroom and also in Firefox when uploaded to the web however when viewing in Safari it’s only loading 2 (sometimes 3) of the gallery images – any ideas? Also – is it possible to have more text space in the about fields? I’d also like to move the order of the buttons plus have an option to disable the home button also.
September 1st, 2008 at 3:33 am
Hi Anon,
While I am a Mod on the forum, I’m not familiar with the internal workings.
I’m guessing you were failing the captcha to prevent spam accounts being created. I’ll mention this to Ian the admin.
I’ve never come across that issue before. Usually safari is the most reliable (although I love the speed of Firefox 3). If you wait does it load?
September 1st, 2008 at 3:50 am
Moving the order of the links is easy, just edit the name and link..
Just because the title is about, doesn’t mean you can enter Contact and contact.html.
September 1st, 2008 at 9:52 am
Hi Sean.
Thanks for getting back.
No it seldom loads all the images into Safari – even if I wait. It seems to load a random number – usually three, sometimes occasionally it does load them all but not very often. Here’s the temp site link – http://homepage.mac.com/irholmes/ianholmesnew/index.html
September 1st, 2008 at 10:03 am
Ian,
I’m seeing this on your site, but not anywhere else.
Do you have other space to upload to? I fear it may be mac.com.
What’s even odder is that Activity shows all the images have been downloaded.
September 1st, 2008 at 10:53 am
Sean – I think you may be right regarding the mac.com thing. I’m just in the process of moving my domain and buying some extra space with someone else as I also want to be able to use the mail form feature of your template. As soon as I’ve got the new web space I’ll let you know if it sorts out the problem.
September 1st, 2008 at 10:53 pm
Hi,
I am about to purchase this LR template. Fits my needs exactly….
Except: The sample sites do not resolve in Opera.
Of course all the templates that come w/ LR work fine.
You say you like FireFox, and that is understandable. But opera has some amazing features, is just as fast, if not faster. The only downside is sometimes it wont resolve sites.
I could send you a screen snap if that would be useful. Or/and you can get opera easily from opera.com. It behaves well, so you wouldnt have to worry about problems installing it.
Quick question: I am sure this is answered somewhere , but I couldnt find it. This template works on the mac osx as well?
Thanks
Michael
I
I always wonder why that is.
September 1st, 2008 at 11:01 pm
What version of Opera and on what OS?
I check on Safari, Firefox, Camino and Opera, but Opera is very much a minority browser.. That said it looks perfect with Opera 9.51 for me.
On my phone it’s my primary browser FWIW
September 1st, 2008 at 11:01 pm
I should mention I check on IE under Parallels too..
I’ve been fighting it all day to get live_update triggering properly..
September 1st, 2008 at 11:03 pm
And on OSX obviously if I’m running Parallels…
September 2nd, 2008 at 8:26 pm
Sean – uploaded to another host. Site can be found here – http://92.48.94.26/~ianholme
I’m still getting the same problem although slightly differently. If I click on he gallerys once it loads only a few images, the second time it usually loads them all.
September 2nd, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Ian I used a site downloader to download and tested the site.. it loads everytime no problem from a test hosting on my own server.
Obviously I won’t be leaving it there but if you want to self test mail me the for the link.
I did email your uk2.net address, but got no reply.
September 2nd, 2008 at 9:33 pm
Except when I do it this time, it doesn’t work!!!
Try it without the right click disable….
September 2nd, 2008 at 9:34 pm
Thanks Sean. I’ve just purchased this new web space so was really hoping that would fix the issue that was apparent with the .mac hosting. I’ve tested in on various platforms and the only thing that seems to have an issue with it is Safari. May I ask who is your host? I think I may have to revert back to the old site until this is hopefully resolved.
September 5th, 2008 at 8:14 am
Hi Sean,
Do you plan to make a trial version available? I don’t mind if it’s got branding plastered all over it, I’m just interested in giving it a go before deciding if I want to spend AU$30.
Cheers,
James
September 5th, 2008 at 10:32 am
Branding is too easy to remove in HTML James. It’s fine to do in Flash, but not HTML.
The sample gallery shows how it looks and the User Guide shows the interface.
September 13th, 2008 at 4:51 am
Hi, since I’m having a big problem understanding the “number” of images in this gallery, i.e., does it have to be the exact same number of each gallery, I read there is a discussion on the “Lightroom-Forums” on this but cannot find which forums meant. Please be kind enough to advise.
Thank you.
Tom
September 13th, 2008 at 2:59 pm
Because Lightroom only deals with one collection or set of images, there is no way to distinguish different amounts or genres of images.
In order to create a number of galleries, fixing a set number of images makes it possible. So Yes it must be the same number of images in each gallery.
I have a note in the user guide on how to take away images if you’ve read it.
September 13th, 2008 at 3:00 pm
And Tom?
you need to put the http:// part in if you want people to be able to check out your site. This is true for comments on any blog.
September 21st, 2008 at 7:26 pm
Hi Sean,
Thanks for this, it’s a really good piece of coding. My website looks vastly improved…:-)
Claire.
October 28th, 2008 at 11:03 pm
Just uploaded another site featuring your template
Artist portfolio
(his stuff will be in the Louvre in Dec.)
http://www.robertwheelerart.com/
Still not able to scroll through in my iphone
October 28th, 2008 at 11:10 pm
Hi Doug,
if the iPhone doesn’t deal with overflow css, there’s no way around it.
Looks good. I would say that you should use the br or p tags to make breaks, more than 3 lines makes it hard to read in the about section.
Sean

greetings from Toronto.
I just purchased 1.1 and I’m really liking it.
2 questions/suggestions:
- have a box or method to input google analytics code. Right now I have to go and edit the html code by hand.
-you could gain a whole bunch of sales by making your plugin available on RapidWeaver !
January 17th, 2009 at 8:18 pm
Hello Sean, I’m a customer of yours, I’m wondering if I cold get some support with the LDB Portfolio 1.03.
I have a problem with the contact form, when click on send I get the error:
Error occurred: 404 – not found
Apache Server at: d1010388.cp.blacknight.com
this is my url below hosted with Blacknight solutions:
http://franciscogalan.com
I contacted them ans they say that it looks that this is a script issue in the actual website and not the settings of the web space.
My other question is about the site text and the about text, I can’t seem to be able to add paragraphs ?
Thanks in advance
pakogalan@gmail.com
January 17th, 2009 at 8:23 pm
Use your download link to get version 1.1, which has been out for ages, and fixes this.
January 18th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
Hello Sean, I bought the LRB engine a while back and I have not been able to make the contact form work, do you have any advice ?
Also is there any way of putting a paragraph or spaces in the text at all ??
January 19th, 2009 at 12:20 am
Sean, Thanks a lot, I got the new version and the contact form issue is fixed, thanks a lot.
However any idea how I can add paragraphs to the text body on the home and about page ??
Also just a suggestion it would be great to be able to change the size of the body text as it’s really small, almost everyone that have seen my site have highlight that point actually ! and it’s really hard to read the body text as it’s real small.
Thanks in advance Sean,
Francisco Galan
January 19th, 2009 at 3:08 am
Try the Body Font Size maybe?
And the user guide covers how to make paragraphs.
January 20th, 2009 at 12:44 am
Thanks Sean, I got some tips form Peter, he’s great help in deed, I do not know much about HTLM and I have messed up the whole thing now, quite funny looking… ! it will take me a while to figure this out though, but thanks.
January 20th, 2009 at 12:56 am
Hey Franciso,
You wouldn’t be the first person to have missed the body font setting!
January 22nd, 2009 at 12:12 am
Hi Sean, sorry to bother you again, I just having all sort of issues trying to get this right.
The font size on the contact page gets tiny and there is not way to get it back to it’s normal size, I can add any FONT SIZE to it…
and unfortunately I tested the contact form and it will not sent the mail to the address, it says that is sent but the mail never arrives..
The email address it’s being double checked and it works normally.
Do you have any advice ?
Thanks in advance
January 22nd, 2009 at 12:48 am
Hi Franciso,
Are you following the Support forum on Lightroom Forums? As it turns out I have 2 font controls, including a local one with no user control.
I humbly apologies for this oversight on my part, which has given a few people issues that I thought had already been fixed.
I have fixed this for Version 1.2 this evening as well as a few other fixes.
In the meantime, in the generated gallery, open the content folder and then edit the file custom.css. Search for
#about {
text-align: right !important;
float: left !important;
padding: 5px 0px 10px 50px !important;
font-size: 10px !important;
width: 40% !important;
}
And change font-size to a larger value. 12 should be okay.
February 5th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
Sean,
Great Lightroom plugin, fits almost everything that I need.
I was just wondering if there was any way to create a kind of second about page…by maybe duplicating the one supplied and changing some of the code???
I just need one more page with some that will allow me some text. Otherwise it is great.
Thanks,
Alex
February 16th, 2009 at 9:49 pm
HELP… OK, It may just be me being a bit thick.. Just bought LRB and cant even get it to install. When I try to unzip it tells me that the folder already exists. Got round that and all folders and files are now in the right places but LR doesn’t display it in the web galleries.
Cheers
Allen
March 6th, 2009 at 3:23 pm
I just ran into a bug (not your fault) but I wanted to put google analytics into the pages but when I added the code into the bottom of the pages it drop kicked my pages into the trash can.
http://www.vistaphotography.com is my site and I think what you created is a really good idea…
Thanks
March 6th, 2009 at 3:37 pm
I’ll need a little more detail Vista
March 6th, 2009 at 3:59 pm
Quick response… It’s a non issue my bad. I didn’t use the LR panel to enter the code and instead I tried to enter it with dreamweaver…
I would like to add code to some of the pages so I could send a viewer to zenfolio to purchase prints but I wonder if I add a link into the page, wether it will kill the page or not…
I’m not a great coder so I’m slowly finding out what to do.
Jeff
BUT! over all this looks really good and is a great plugin… and it’s a hell of a lot cheaper than buying a template or hiring a web designer…
March 6th, 2009 at 4:03 pm
Shush Jeff, or I’ll start charging more
I’ve changed the way the Google code is added for my current version, you now only need to add your Google ID.
You could use one of the external links as a ‘Buy Prints” link in the menu.
March 6th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
That’s what I was thinking. I just have my blog as one of the external links right now. I was wondering… I have a favicon that I have on my regular website pages and I was wondering if you think it would break the code if I tried to put it in the header of the page…
I know the easy answer is to try it and see if it works… But I thought I would ask first… I love to play with it but I get tired of reloading the site because I broke it…
March 6th, 2009 at 4:52 pm
It won’t break it, but Lightroom will keep opening the favicon in a browser window..
March 6th, 2009 at 5:43 pm
Here is a freebe.. I posted on a forum at mpix about your plugin. http://community.mpix.com/forums/t/99022.aspx
I don’t know if you can view it with out creating a login but maybe…
There are a lot of photographers that are trying to create a website but don’t have the funds or talent to do it on their own, so your plugin helps out…
Stop blushing, I’m just giving credit where credit is due…
March 12th, 2009 at 3:34 pm
I just wrote a blog entry hightlighting what I think of you plugin…
You’ll have to read it to get my verdict…

March 12th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
Hi Sean,
I’ve tried several time to switch the links around, contact.html in about.html location and vice versa, and nothing seems to be working. Am I missing something?
March 12th, 2009 at 11:37 pm
That the question was asked about a much older version of the plugin, prior to the much requested ability to be able to name the gallery files whatever you liked? It’s also tied to the generation of the files in general.
March 12th, 2009 at 11:50 pm
I am new to the plug in and up until the last few hours had not had the chance to research the forums on any previous versions. I did however figure out how to get it to do what I wanted after exporting the files themselves. Thank you for your help.
March 13th, 2009 at 12:18 am
That’s one way that will work!
You can edit the menu.html file in the gallery, but you have to get it right, or it’ll mess up with all the conditional lua statements.
If I could figure an easy way to allow them to move..
What specifically were you moving?
March 13th, 2009 at 12:36 am
I wanted to move the contact section to the end of the menu. lol, I imagine you’re tired of hearing that after reading the forum postings. I settled for renaming the gallery 1 file to the index file so it opens with the c motion scripting. I liked the feel of that in the examples you gave. I think I might be able to duplicate the process with the contact form by switching it with the gallery 6 html file. I’ll let you know how it goes. Thanks again man, awesome plugin!
March 13th, 2009 at 12:44 am
It would depend on the generation order mostly Tim, because you might accidently overwrite the contact page.
It’s nearly 1am here and I’m too tired to think about a solution right now.
I could code in a tick box to move both About and Contact to the end. As you’ve gather from the forum, it’ll mean the menu.html file will double in size pretty much.
March 13th, 2009 at 12:46 am
I’m not complaining bro, when ever you get it done it’s cool. You offer a great plug in for next to nothing. I can wait till you figure it out. I’ll keep prowling the forums till you do. Thanks again
March 13th, 2009 at 9:28 pm
Here is the link to my site Sean: timrowansphotography.com. I found that if you change the names of the links in LR to reflect where you want them in the template only you can change the names of the html files after exporting to direct the links. For example I deleted the index file created in the export. Renamed gallery1 as the index file and then renamed the other gallery files accordingly. In my LR I had gallery 6 labeled as “contact”. So I renamed it gallery 6, copied the index file (formerly gallery 1) and renamed it on the desktop to “contact” and put it back in the file. I know it all sounds a bit confusing, but it literally took me 2 minutes to do once I figured it out. I hope this helps you. Thanks
March 14th, 2009 at 2:46 am
Hi Tim,
Cutting and pasting in the menu.html file would’ve worked also. That said, some people simply won’t go near code.
I’ve added a toggle to swap the position of non gallery pages.
March 15th, 2009 at 11:14 pm
Hi Sean, I love lrb portfolio, but I cannot figure out how to add the contact form. I opened the LRB Portfolio.lrwebengine folder and ctrl clicked (mac), chose ‘Show Package Contents’ and opened the mail.html file. I did not see the line “$recipient=’YourAddr@YourMail.com’. I tried opening the mail.html file in Safari, Text Edit etc and could not find the line. I am not familiar with editing html so I may be doing this all wrong. Can you help me with this? Thanks!
March 16th, 2009 at 4:12 am
It’s line 50
March 25th, 2009 at 3:43 am
Hi Sean, the links/words in my menu have the first letters capitalized with the others lowercase, but the CONTACT menue link is in all caps. How can I make this consistent with the other links?
March 25th, 2009 at 3:51 am
Hi Lindsay,
That sounds odd as the menu is read from the same file for each page. Try turning on and off (or off and on as the case may be) the Add Copyright Watermark to force a refresh and see if that makes a difference?
March 25th, 2009 at 4:38 am
I tried turning off, then back on, the Add Copyright Watermark and it did not change anything.
March 25th, 2009 at 5:06 am
Please go to the support thread on Lightroom Forums and post a screen cap of the Menu Settings and the Contact page.
March 25th, 2009 at 10:57 pm
Hi Sean,
I’m having another issue. When I activate the “use images” option under the menu images tabs the gallery 6 link becomes inactive. It still provides an html file, but there is no link. Any ideas?
March 25th, 2009 at 11:15 pm
Hi Tim,![]()
tag. Silly error.
Good catch.. It's actually a very simple error. It's fixed here now, but if you want to fix it yourself:

Thanks a ton! I love the 2.1 update btw. Great job!
March 25th, 2009 at 11:23 pm
There’s one or 2 rough edges that’ve been fixed as we go, like this one. If you follow the support thread, you’ll se I’ve added further options to CMotion with Bob’s research!
April 3rd, 2009 at 8:41 am
Hi Sean, I love this, thanks very much! I have a few problems though, wondered if anyone could help? My initial website looks great however….when you open up any of the galleries, the menus dissappear, they stay on the ‘about’, ‘home’ and ‘contact’ pages though. Also the email gives me this error message:-
“Notice: Undefined index: imageName in E:\domains\m\mickspix.co.uk\user\htdocs\mail.php on line 35
Warning: mail() [function.mail]: “sendmail_from” not set in php.ini or custom “From:” header missing in E:\domains\m\mickspix.co.uk\user\htdocs\mail.php on line 50
Can’t send email to.. “
I’m not big on coding….any ideas?
Thanks again, Mike
April 3rd, 2009 at 9:26 am
Re: the menu, no idea Mike, first I’ve heard of such an issue. Use the support thread link in the post as comments are not a great place to solve this.
Re the mail thing, it means your PHP doesn’t support the contact form in it’s current form. I’ll look at it later and see if I can spot something, again take this to the support thread.
October 29th, 2009 at 12:07 am
Hello, I'm having trouble with posting galleries. I can get one gallery up, but then everything gets jumble when I try to go to the 2nd one. The whole format changes, and I can't even post any photographs. I've scoured the forums, but can't seem to figure out the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I love this so far, and really want to keep using it!
October 29th, 2009 at 12:33 am
Steve, you're not really providing much information to go on. Can you post to the support forum with more detail?
http://www.lightroomforums.net/index.php?topic=3126.0
The whole gallery exports to one folder and this is what you need to upload. Make sure you're not overwriting other stuff on upload.
March 30th, 2010 at 7:18 pm
hi,
i have your template, love it. I have 40 images that I want to put in 2 galleries in my lightroom collection called LRB portfolio, when I open teh WEB module, I put 1-20 in the gallery 1 and 21-40 in gallery 2.. but nothing show up in gallery 2..what am I doing wrong?
March 30th, 2010 at 10:28 pm
Hard to know without seeing a screen capture. Is the Checkbox for Gallery 2 ticked to turn it on? Are all 40 images in one collection (not collection set)?
March 30th, 2010 at 11:24 pm
Hi, thanks for the response, they are in one collection and the the gallery 2 is checked, I can send you a screen capture- if that is ok?
March 30th, 2010 at 11:30 pm
Sure is.
March 31st, 2010 at 1:29 am
is there an email address that I can send the screen grab too?

I need to see the filmstrip ,toolbar and the gallery controls (Gallery 1 and Gallery 2).
That message only comes up when there’s not enough images selected.

Hi Alecia,
Change the number of images in Gallery 2 to 20. You don’t need to enter the total number of images, just the number in each Gallery (20 in this case for both gallery 1 and gallery 2).

Sean – great template / plugin. Good value for money. Seem to have it working OK. A nice to have would be the option in the galleries to switch to a thumbnail view. Don’t know if its a browser thing but I get white space (running a grey background) at the bottom of safari windows until I refresh

Hi Rob,
A thumbnail view wouldn’t work with this design. The white space thing is slightly baffling. I have height set to 100% to prevent it, but it still happens from time to time.

Thanks Sean – good to see even the experts baffled by the white thing!

I do have a solution though.. use a white background!

I’ve just spent a few bucks on this superb gallery, there is just one small thing I wan’t to mention…
The price is stated (above) as “The cost of the plugin? €10″ but you charge 15€ for it.. no big deal, but you might want to correct the price here…

Yikes. It’s been €15 for ages.. better fix!

Im thinking about purchasing LRB Portfolio as my friend has it already and I think it looks great. I already have my own domain name. How do I come about linking it to my domain name and making it live once I have made the website. This is my biggest concern as not technically minded and want to keep my domain.

HI Gareth,
You need to have the domain name linked to web space, usually via the nameserver from the web space hosting company. Then you just upload to that space as per the instructions provided by the host.

That sounds simple enough but probably more complex in doing it. When I get round to uploading to my domain name do I contact you for help or do I contact the people I got the domain name from. As I said I am not that technically minded when it comes to doing this with websites. I am wanting to purchase LRB Portfolio soon as my current website expires soon.

Hi Gareth, it’s the role of the host. Once the files are exported from the Web Module, it’s in the users hands to get them online. It isn’t that hard. Maybe try some of the free hosts to get practice before going live with the real thing?

Hi Sean – have been playing around with LRB Portfolio, it’s everything I’ve been looking for. I’m an absolute beginner when it comes to website design, so finding this was superb. After a few days messing around I’ve created this http://www.malgphotography.co.uk – this will be refined and improved with time and experience. LRB Portfolio is an absolute bargain and worth three times what you are charging. Thank you.
