Drupal Gardens Gallery

You can create a gallery in Drupal Gardens, here are some important points related to this:


  • Image galleries are now media galleries with the addition of video support. In any gallery, you can now click 'Add media', click the 'Embed image/video' tab, and enter the URL of any YouTube video, e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Duow7C29Rz4 . Once added, videos are sized properly to appear just like any image in the gallery -- but with a filmstrip icon in the lower left to identify it as a video. Videos can be watched in a lightbox or full page, and will play in a slideshow as well. Video playback is supported via HTML5 or Flash allowing playback in all platforms including iPhone and iPad. (Screenshots below)
  • Based on usability testing, simplified media gallery settings and improved bulk image uploading.
  • Before bulk uploading groups of images, you can now specify one or more identifying tags (e.g. School, 2012, Home).
  • If desired, galleries can now be created with as few as 2 columns of images.
