Use more photos, more often and more effectively
These apps give you a range of display and format options for photography of all kinds, from high-end subscription images to shots you took with your phone.
Right now we have 5 photo apps:
Curated Mosaic
This is a curated (or automated if you prefer) app that displays photos in an asymmetrical grid design.
Each image is clickable and you control the presentation of the images on the other side of the click.
Gallery creation itself is done with our web-based Smart Galleries tool (a close cousin of the Publisher Suite). Smart Galleries is a drag-and-drop interface so intuitive that literally anyone can use it right away. It also features an intelligent automation component that can import relevant images to keep galleries fresh even after they’re deployed.
Related Mosaic
This is another asymmetrical grid, but in this case populated algorithmically with images based on the context of the page the gallery resides on. Our Content Cloud scans the page for entity names and other usable information, then matches that data against the metadata of the photos in your archives and subscriptions.
These galleries require no curation and will evolve automatically over time as new images come into the system.
Slideshow
Slideshow galleries use a standard left/right arrow navigation. They can also be navigated by a slider that shows several thumbnails at a time.
Slideshows, like Mosaics, are populated using our web-based, drag-and-drop Smart Galleries tool. You can curate a full set of images or just pick a couple to start off your gallery and then turn on Smart Galleries’ automation feature, which will backfill the rest with relevant pics (you can limit the number of images that’ll appear with automation, along with some other handy controls).
Widescreen
Widescreen galleries feature big, beautiful renderings of your images. You may have seen a feature like this on the Boston Globe or the Atlantic – the images are given room to really engage your audience.
Widescreen galleries are made with the Smart Galleries tool, and can be either curated or automated (or both) depending on your needs.
Touch
These Touch galleries are custom-designed for iOS devices. The interface and gestures provide a fluid, Apple-friendly experience for iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch users.
These galleries can be either curated or automated with our drag-and-drop Smart Galleries interface, the easiest and most powerful gallery creation tool on the market.
