I need to create a webpage for my photos

[jaifo]

Hi folks,

I'm an architect who has become an architect photographer. I have a portfolio of the work I have been doing but i need to create an online porfolio in wich to stock my work.
I also photograph tons of photos of my family, friends, and travels which i would like to share, and comment.

Is a blog like Tumblr the best option? or maybe some photo stocking as 500px.com

I can pay an anual fee if the page deserves it...

Thank's for the help!!

The theme I use on my tumblr blog allows you to choose the size of the images on it.
It's really good and simple, I think.

How long have you been using?

About 3 months and have had a few sales from it.

I use Indexhibit. You need to buy your own domain + webspace and install it onto the server. However once you get it up and running it's incredibly easy to update. Best of all the actual code is FREE 😀

You can find more about it here: http://www.indexhibit.org/

Ooooo this one looks nice too. I was looking for a tumblr theme like that just to post my daily photos. Is there anyway you can direct me where to get that theme?

Check out www.zenfolio.com
it costs around 25$ basic membership per year.
Or if you look for something that cost 0$ and with no calenders (blogs) and ads you can use googlesites. Check this thread I created while ago:

This is a platform that's used by many professionals but it does require some html knowledge.

That is the more simple version of it, it's for basic clean sites with maximum image sizes and less clutter. Which is the industry standard nowadays.

I have PM'd you the HTML to copy into the 'Theme' section of Customize.

Ah, actually, I haven't it won't allow me to send that much text in a PM.
PM me your email address and I can email it to you.

Hi Guys

I'm a co-owner at Photoswarm and I've arrived over here as this thread has generated a little bit of traffic to our site and after reading it, I wanted to respond to Jaifo's question about us being in Beta.

Jaifo, we've actually been in "BETA" for about 2 and a half years now. We're always trying to develop our system but things are very stable so there's nothing to worry with that label. We're not planning on disappearing any time soon.

If you've got any other questions about our service feel free to either ask them here or send us an email at support@photoswarm.com and I'll do my best to help.

Nobbylon, thanks very much for your kind recommendation. As a gesture of thanks I've added a months credit to your account so your next month will be free.
