SUMMARY -
Upon successful completion of this tutorial, even the novice user should understand how to prepare for, download,and install Gallery.
The Purpose of these Tutorials
These tutorials give clear instructions in plain language, intended for Novices, less-technical people, self-taught Joeand Joan Public interested in photography, keen to create themes, modules etc to organise their own Galleries forfamily, friends, and websites, and to share with the Gallery project.
Some Basic Computer Knowledge is Essential
but we do not assume prior understanding of the processes. Weinclude basic techniques only as needed for the gallery work of each tutorial. You should research these techniquesto understand them more fully. (Use Google and follow links within our text). We provide these brief instructions atthe beginning because without these basic skills, at the very least you will require personal assistance, and at worstyou could damage your computer system – time-consuming, frustrating and costly.
Background of a Novice Themer / Module writer/ Developer
For whatever reason, we did not learn Computing at School. Enthusiasm for Computing came later. We missed themethodical tuition and learn what we need about computing as we need it.While these tutorials will get us on our way, we are advised to learn the required processes and skills thoroughlyfrom their own specific tutorials on the internet.One example of this - Where I start from:- I use Internet Explorer and Firefox, and know some HTML coding. Ihave a Linux webhosting plan and upload files by webshell to my websites.My old computer, running Xubunut 7.10 - a version of Ubuntu, has been adapted to be a Linux Local Server, so Ican check webpage work without using internet bandwidth. Setting up the server is beyond the scope of thesetutorials.
