Image Galleries

As mentioned in my last post on Links related to my About.com material, I converted a couple of image galleries:-

• Chess Tactics Illustrated, and
  
• Photos from the 2005 FIDE World Championship

These were the first image galleries I created when About.com released its own gallery tool. While neither of them is particularly significant, they let me evaluate other third party tools for creating galleries.

I finally selected Jalbum. On top of the features I expect in a gallery tool, it lets me incorporate Google Adsense, the only game in town for monetizing web content.

The next step will be to see how well Jalbum handles chess diagrams. After that I'd like to see if I can use the tool to create tutorials. These generally have more text than image galleries.
