Drupal :: Photos, Galleries, and Modules
By Bradley Charbonneau | Filed under Drupal, Help, Photos
Here’s an update on photos, photo galleries/albums, easy uploading, photo resizing, etc. in Drupal.
1.) Image Module
The basic Drupal module, together with Image Assist.
:|: Pros
- Very integrated with Drupal; so easy to insert images into regular entries
- Easy to upload (one at a time)
- Sidebar integration (”Random Photo”)
:|: Cons
- No multiple upload (coming in 4.7)
- No auto-resize on upload and delete original image (there’s a fix, but it doesn’t work yet in 4.6.3, maybe 4.7)
2.) Acidfree
Multimedia module (photos, videos, etc.)
:|: Pros
- Easy upload
- Multiple photo upload
- Upload via webserver (existing photos in a folder on a/your site)
- Nice-looking galleries
- Easy thumbnail and “medium size” image resizing on server
- Nice sidebar integration (”Random Photo”)
:|: Cons
- No auto-resize on upload and delete original image
3.) Gallery2
High-powered gallery program; integrated with Drupal via a module; not exactly seamless integration (e.g. themes) yet, but probably coming soon;
:|: Pros
- Extremely easy to manage albums and photos
- Extremely easy to upload (single, multiple, via Win XP)
:|: Cons
- Not as integrated in Drupal yet (e.g. don’t know how to put image into a regular entry)
- Themes can conflict (until new themes come out that are better integrated)
That’s all for now. I’ll keep this entry updated as I learn more.

I’ve tried the auto-resize on the upload and it doesn’t work, but I’m not sure any other program does this so it’s not really such a big issue.

I can get it to change to the second. The thing was, at least in a short time-span, I then couldn’t get it to change back to clockwise again.
Am I alone in this?

still not sure about drupal, but am seriously considering using it for my current website at San Diego Wedding Photographer
but your info should help me make a decision

I have a website about San Diego Window Cleaning. Do you think converting and using drupal would be too much or can it be applied to my type of site?

Great info. I am passing this to my web guy and hopefully he can do something with it to improve our site at Santee Transmission Repair

With the economy the way it is, wedding budgets have gone way down. Brides shop around these days more than ever, making it tougher for vendors to compete. It will turn around one day, just have to be patient
