Viewbook - a top notch way to present images on your blog or website

Viewbook is an application I’ve had my eye on for a long time now. It is, I think, the simplest and most elegant way to display photographs on a website or blog.

The control panel is where you upload all of your photographs and then sort them into presentation folders. So lets say you have just done a photowalk and have 10 or 15 photographs you would like to show. You will probably spend a fair bit of time sizing the images, uploading them, placing them in your blog post and so on. At the end of your efforts, you will have a post which (in my view) takes up far too much space.

With viewbook, all you need to do is select all your photos, add titles and comments to them, and finally copy & paste a bit of code to your blog post. The result is much cleaner and easier in the long run. Sample below shows “one I created earlier” using le craic header images for demonstration. Every presentation you create has its own url so you can email it or post it on twitter.

Sign up for a free account and try it for yourself, I think you’ll like it.
