Create rich portfolios for your site using the NextGen Gallery plug-in. Open the Gallery Manager in your Dashboard (the back end, where you do all your writing and customizing) to create gallery names and upload images (it likes zip files, if you have a lot). Then, link the galleries to your pages and posts.

You can also choose Upload/Insert and upload and attach images right into your posts.
Prepare batches of Web-ready images for your online work. I export directly from iPhoto in batches sized apx 1000 pixels wide and 72dpi. That way they are always large enough but I don’t waste time and server space uploading high-rez images.
~admin – write over these notes with your own copy, or delete them. The NextGen Gallery is already installed. There are other media plug-ins you can activate in the Dashboard to further customize your site.
