How to use joomla for Photo site?

I am planning to launch a photo site, can u suggest which changes i have to do so that joolma can be used .. the site will be a funny pics site.. Can u suggest any other systems other than joolma which exactly satisfy my needs.. Any help would be appreciated..

 

Joomla is the perfect CMS.

Go to joomla.org and search for modules/components for your purpose - I'm 100% sure that you'll find what you need as the ideas seems quite common

 

You can use gallery extensions for joomla photo site

 

Since ive been researching Joomla, ive realised it will be a good choice for my image related projects in mind.

 

Use Joomla with Coppermine Gallery.
This website here is created with Joomla + CPG http://www.galeriashqiptare.net/

 

olti, thanks for providing a link so that i can see an example of the two running, it looks cool, i use coppermine on its own and i like it, now that i plan to become a user of Joomla as well, its interesting to see what can be acheived.

Nice girls by the way are they Albanian girls or from all over the world?

 

Try using 4homepages photo gallery. For me, it's the best in town.

 

Not only, but most of them are Albanian

 

Cool, they look good

 

I started using Joomla about a year ago for my photography site. I installed various photo add-ons and the one i found the most effective was Exposé 4.
If you go to my page:
http://www.rosenberg.es
you´ll find a good example of this working..
good luck

 

I found a fully fetured photo competition component
istos.ws/ english/ antici_photo_competition.html

It helped me a lot the last one year to create 7 International photo competitions
It has a great support and quick reply
They even did a lot of customizations for me at great prices
I hope this helps
Thanks

 

Joomla is really great for photo site. You can find what you on joomla.org
There are many tools to slide, view and make contents. I use phoca.
Hope this will help.

 

If it's a more complex type of photo gallery you want then go for joomla if not you can always use wordpress.

 

You can use Coppermine Gallery. Phoca Gallery is also good.

 

I have same question also..i will develop new website for Photographer.

Thank guys for the info

What is the question ?

Solution for Joomla or any other 3rd party solution ?

 

you can use Phoca Gallery component

 

I agree that Phoca Gallery is pretty good and fairy easy to customize

 

What did you use for your template to work from? I really like that overall look. I am new to joomla and so I have a very limited knowledge base to draw from..

Thanks,

Hi,

sigplus is a really powerful module and easily implemented within Joomla. Have a look here for an example of a recent implementation of it:
