anyone using this? i tried it out for the first time the other day - i
just put a few images in a folder and followed the directions to see how
it worked and it did - but now i can not figure out how to go back and add
more images or customize it, like by adding text below each images with
price info, etc. I went through the help section on photoshop that
explains how to use this feature but it did not seem to explain how to do
what i want to. Can anyone explain please?
thanks,
paul

Photoshop is a very involved piece of software aimed at others than
the casual designer. You can't just sit down and use it. You need to
read the book, go through tutorials, and learn the program. It's not
an easy program to learn.

In my Photoshop manual it says you can add text to the File Info
dialogue box of each image you are using and PS will use that as the
caption rather than the file name. My experience with Web Galleries
is that you don't add or take out images from a gallery. If you want
a different set of pix you remake the gallery using a new set of
images in the source folder. So you need to delete the old gallery
from the destination folder first. You can also change colors etc by
editing the HTML code..

I don't think Adobe meant Web Galleries to be full web pages, just
convenient info for clients.
