Eyemodule Gallery back online

After spending much of yesterday attempting to compile PHP with the GD library and JPEG, PNG, and TTF support, I finally got it compiled, and today my Eyemodule photos are back online at http://andy.greyledge.net/pda/eyemodule/index.php4 Nothing has been culled from the collection; underexposed pics are mixed in with the better ones, and much of the subject matter is probably only interesting to me - like the daily photos I've been taking of the construction at the hospital where I work. They'll make for a nice timelapse when the building is finished, though!

Nonetheless, It seemed to get a fair amount of traffic from the 'Does anyone have any sample eyemodule pics' threads I used to post the link to. These are all images taken with the Eyemodule 1, 320x240, mostly color, a few B&W.

The rest of the site is pretty skeletal at the moment.

You have a pretty big gallary, the major problem is it's all in one big go. I think it'd be better if you somehow organized your gallary into subsections that could break things down to subject matter perhaps? I thought of doing an online photo gallary, but I wouldn't just throw pics in at random, that's just too tacky for me.

Well, as the disclaimer went... they're all up there, good, bad, and uninteresting alike. Site's pretty skeletal.

Eventually I plan to organize things a little better, and keep a separate 'non-tacky' gallery of some of the better pics. But, I plan to do a lot of things eventually; I put that script together last November/December when I had fewer than 100 images, and I haven't gotten around to elaborating on it yet.

You're right; it would make a more effective gallery if there were some sort of categorization in place, etc. etc. But to my way of thinking, a quickie catch-all online gallery is better than none at all, especially if all you're looking for is a step up from the default apache directory listing. It won't win any awards for design, but that's no reason not to put it online.
