Sorry if this should be posted elsewhere but this seemed the most relevant sub forum. We have Filemaker 7 and have been using it nicely for a number of years for project management. Now, our main client has asked us to look into creating and on-line image library of all their images that we hold on our in-house server.

So, what I'm wondering is, can Filemaker be used easily to create an in-house image library that can then be published to the web. The web front end only needs to offer thumbnails and 800x600 low res images, the client would contact us direct for high res images - this also protects us and keeps the high res images in our studio.

If anyone has experience of making a similar Filemaker database, could you please tell me what is possible and how involving it is to do.

Many thanks, Tom.

Perhaps the features of 360 Works Super container can assist you.

I am a FileMaker newbie, so please excuse my nieveness, but I am just curious why you would want to use FileMaker to create an online photo gallery. I would think that a web gallery would be better suited by using web gallery software.

Just my 2-cents.

Dave, I have been using Filemaker for many years and have always been amazed at what it can do. Our computer supplier has also been telling me for a number of years that FM could organise our image library. Hence, I am asking the question here. I have also contacted various image library software companies, however the beauty of FM is that we already own it!

Cheers, Tom.
