I want to do something like this with 4 photos on my homepage. Example: http://www.denisegoldberg.com/
I want one long photo on the left and three small photos to the right, just like the example shown. Thanks for your time.

denisegoldberg · Sep-24-2012, 05:12 PM #2

I apologize for not answering earlier; I'm traveling with limited computer access.

I used a table on my home page. The table has one row with two columns. The smaller photos on the right are in the same table cell, with line feeds between them. All of the photos for my homepage are stored in a single (unlisted) gallery. I used the random photo code from this post and the custom sizes documented on this help page.

Here's the code from my bio box with the links to my site removed:

Code:

<html>
<center>
<table cellspacing="25">
<tr>
<td>
<center>
<a href="your site url here"><img src="your image url here&Size=575x575" border="0"></a>
</center>
</td>
<td>
<center>
<img src="your image url here&Size=175x175">
<br/><br/>
<img src="your image url here&Size=175x175">
<br/><br/>
<img src="your image url here&Size=175x175">
</center>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</center>
</html>

Thank you very much, I will try it.

cswhite · Sep-28-2012, 06:55 AM #4

I keep getting the photo box that says "This is not you but could be". Do I have to put some CSS code in to disable that because this is what I changed your html that you gave me to:

<html>
<center>
<table cellspacing="25">
<tr>
<td>
<center>
<a href="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/Other/Hidden/25130737_Ljr6Vr#!i=2060528785&k=zwrSp9b"><img src="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/photos/i-xJqhHsf/0/M/i-xJqhHsf-M.jpg=575x575" border="0"></a>
</center>
</td>
<td>
<center>
<img src="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/photos/i-j2m8bnJ/0/M/i-j2m8bnJ-M.jpg=175x175">
<br/><br/>
<img src="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/photos/i-pghDv7n/0/M/i-pghDv7n-M.jpg=175x175">
<br/><br/>
<img src="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/photos/i-F8dD5F6/0/M/i-F8dD5F6-M.jpg=175x175">
</center>
</td>
</tr>
</table>

</html>

Thanks for helping

Where are you getting that message?

And where did you put the code? In your bio box? Or someplace else?

I put it in my bio box and that message is on my homepage now http://www.cswhitephotography.com

cswhite · Sep-28-2012, 08:13 AM #7

It does not show up on visitor view, it's just blank. I don't have an image selected for it in my account settings

cswhite · Sep-28-2012, 08:28 AM #8

Ok I changed the html a little because I realized I made some errors. I realize also that I don't have it set for random images.

<html>
<center>
<table cellspacing="25">
<tr>
<td>
<center>
<a href="http://www.cswhitephotography.com/Other/Hidden/25130737_Ljr6Vr/"><img src="/photos/i-xJqhHsf/0/M/i-xJqhHsf-M.jpg=575x575" border="0"></a>
</center>
</td>
<td>
<center>

No one can help unless you leave the code in place on your home page. It doesn't appear to be there now. If the code is in your bio box, is that set to display on your homepage?

If you want to use random images please put that code in place.

I'm a bit surprised that you set the <a href= statement on the main image to take the viewer that clearly contains images from a gallery used to support your site. If you don't have a place you want the users to see when they click on the main image then don't use the <a href= statement; just use the <img src to show the image.

cswhite · Sep-28-2012, 09:06 AM #10

Ok the bio box is set to display on my homepage. And I changed the <a href back to the way it was

Sorry, I missed this when I was looking at the code you pasted here. This is invalid:

Code:

/photos/i-xJqhHsf/0/M/i-xJqhHsf-M.jpg Size=575x575

You either need to use the custom size URL or you need to specify the size in your URL. To use the custom sizes follow the pattern shown on this help page - http://help.smugmug.com/customer/portal/articles/93264.

If you don't want to use the custom sizes, remove " Size=575x575" (should have had an & in front of it...) - just pull the URL from the share page.

If you do want to use the custom sizes, update your URL to use it.

--- Denise

denisegoldberg · Sep-28-2012, 11:55 AM #12

Do you realize that you have set your site so clicking on the main image on your homepage goes to an invalid URL?

Either replace this:

Code:

 <a href="http://www.smugmug.com/photos/random.mg?AlbumID=<25436586>&AlbumKey=<xFspkR#!i>&Size=<500x500>">

with a valid link to somewhere in your site, or remove the <a href= statement and only use the <img src= statement.

Thank you so much for your help. Instead of random images I just had each pic point to a different gallery.

dizilizi · Oct-08-2012, 03:28 AM #14

Hi Denise,
I am trying to use your html code to put a table with photos linking to parts of my site on my homepage. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but I just can't get the photo I want to show to appear. Can you help - I'd be hugely grateful!?
My website: www.lizihesling.com
Thank you!!!
Lizi
PS The "row 2 cell 1 row 2 cell 2" text on my homepage is just there to remind me how to make a table. Obviously, I'm just a beginner with html!! My aim with my homepage is to put four photos up all linking to different galleries - all will be 850pixelx250pixel, one on top of the other.

Go to share button > get a link. Here's what you get for Large

Code:

<td colspan=2>
<center>
<a href="http://www.lizihesling.com/Videos/Virals/25700028_BCbSBz">
<img src="http://www.lizihesling.com/Other/Homepage/i-Kh6Z3Wd/0/L/homepage-viral-L.jpg" border="0"></a>
