Gallerinator

Since almost anyone can own a powerful camera inside a mobile phone, pictures quickly became a pretty popular and important resource. Images are used as textures and even to represent important collection or galleries. As such, Gallerinator wants to help you design your own HTML picture galleries to include in your web projects.

The application’s main window is pretty well-organized. A side navigation panel makes it easy to access the variety of areas, such as the built galleries, editor, and options menu. Whenever a region is selected, its content can be viewed in the center area, which holds dedicated functions and enough view space.

First of all, you need to create a blank gallery, which you then get to fill with pictures. Support isn’t abundant, but it allows you to process pictures under popular formats like JPG, PNG, and GIF. You add them through the browse dialog, because drag and drop isn’t supported. The galleries browser makes it easy to visualize all creations.

There’s a built-in editor you can use to quickly edit or enhance pictures. Don’t be fooled though, because advanced color tweaks and filters are not found here. Instead, you can edit simple options like rotation, flipping, and cropping. Multiple pages can be created, and you can add descriptions to each picture.

Building the gallery lets you specify a save location and a name. Note, however, that all content is removed from the destination folder without your consent, so make sure to save the new gallery in a new or empty folder. You can choose to have the gallery brought up in your default browser, which can be tweaked with some elements like page layout, borders, and more.

Bottom line is that Gallerinator isn’t really a pro choice when it comes to gallery creation applications, but it does manage to get the job properly done. File support is decent, with enough edit operations at your disposal. Just make sure to save the new project into an empty folder to prevent loss of data.
