Today I’m really glad to announce the first version of ImageGallery, version 1.0 licensed under GNU Lesser GPL. During past few days I spent my spare time playing around with this to make it available for the public. The initial version which was deployed in my photography page was cleaned and converted into an User Control. Now an Image Gallery can be added to an ASP.NET Page with a single line.
<uc:Gallery runat="server"></uc:Gallery>
A new theme was created as the default theme of ImageGallery and it can be seen here at Demo Gallery. Still ImageGallery only supports to access images from Flickr Accounts. The next step is to develop another two extensions to provide access to Web Folders and Picasa Accounts.
Thanks to FlickrNET API and Lightbox Slideshow Javascript Library. Special thanks to Justin Barkhuff for allowing me to distribute Lightbox Slideshow with ImageGallery.
