    Hello,

    First of all, your Web Album Generator is an amazing piece of software, redefines what "user-friendly" is all about. I have a suggestion for an additional option which I haven't seen in the many threads I checked on this forum.

    I would like to be able to click a photo and display the original image. For example, I'm creating a web album from a folder containing 1440x960 sized images (resize from the raw format for making prints). It would really be neat to be able to click the reduced 640x480 photo to get its source.

    Meanwhile, I'm gonna search for html code on how to add a link in the generated html files. If anyone has suggestion, please let me know.

    Regards,

    Eric

    I found the HTML code that I would prefer to use:

    instead of:

    <div id="photograph">
	<img src="photo.jpg" title="20100626-03" alt="photo.jpg"/>
   </div>

    I would use

    <div id="photograph">
	<a href="20100626-03.jpg"><img src="20100626-03.jpg" width="640" height="426"></a>
   </div>

    Works really well!

    Wonder if it could an option when creating the album; I see that it has a link to something already asked as far as using the original image instead of the scaled down version.

    Regards,

    Eric

    Ah! My previous post has been automatically reformatted!!!

    The code I want to use is:
    <!--<img src="20100626-03.jpg" width="640" height="426">-->

    (without the comments bracket!)

    Hi Eric,

    Including an option to link to the original, full-sized image is a really popular request, and will be in the next version (which is already partway through development).

    (Also, in response to your second question, any code can be placed between "backtick" characters in these forums (ie: `). I've taken the liberty of moderating your first post to use these. )

    Hello Mark,

    Thanks for your quick reply... and removing my accidental spam!

    Keep up your good work,

    G'day, I've got exactly the same request (and the same kudos too!).

    Is there any update on whether clickable originals will be available soon? i.e. when might we expect the next version to be released?

    The next version is under active development, but since this is something I can only work on in my spare time and on weekends, it's impossible for me to really estimate a release date. If you'd like to receive an email notification when new versions of Web Album Generator are released, though, I invite you to sign up for the announcement list.

    Thanks Mark, I've already done the announcement signup! I await the next version with trembling anticipation...
    Cheers,
