For today, we have famed instructor Chris Orwig taking us through the process of creating a web gallery using Lightroom. I love the fact that Lightroom -can- make it as easy as this to put up your content online. Check it out below:

“I love photography because it provides me a way to savor life, capture a memory, and tell a story. As a digital photographer, it’s easy to take tons of pictures and then neglect to invest the time and effort to actually share them. Here’s the good news: This problem has disappeared from my workflow with the incredibly powerful and easy-to-use Web module in Lightroom. It’s now effortless to get your photos online for your friends, family, and clients.

1 [START IN THE LIBRARY MODULE]
The first step is to pick out your favorite photos. As any pro photographer will tell you, it’s always better to show a few amazing photos than many average photos. Click on the Library module picker at the top of the interface, and press the E key to navigate to Loupe view. Now, give each image a star rating by pressing 1–5. For example, press 1 to add a 1-star rating, 2 for a 2-star rating, and so on. Only give your absolute favorite images a 4- or 5-star rating. The star rating will appear in the Toolbar below the image. ”

Slideshow Pro has got some Updates
While we’re on the topic of Lightroom and the web, I would be remiss if I didn’t talk about Slideshowpro. I just got an email from them that there has been some updates that they have done to their Thumbgrid application, as well as a security patch that you should download.
