Creating an album

Introduction Examples FAQ Download Installation Usage Creating an album Setting description fields Customization Web server configuration Tools Contact and contribution License | # Creating an album Put all your images in a directory, say `~/images`. Your images can be ordered into sub-directories. Then, create an empty directory, where the album will be created, say `~/album` :
        mkdir ~/album
and run bins with the two directories (source and destination) as parameters :
        bins ~/images ~/album
This will create an HTML album, with sub-albums, thumbnails and scaled images. To change the appearance of the HTML album, a style can be chosen with the `-s` command line option or via the `templateStyle` parameter in the configuration or description files (see Customization below for information about these files). In this case, BINS will use the HTML templates found is the subdirectory named `templates.` `style` (where `style` is the style name). BINS looks for this subdirectory in the directory specified by the `-t` command line option, then in `~/.bins` and finally in `/etc/bins`. See the man page for all style names available. If someone has the artistic talent to create HTML templates for a new style, I am interested... bins has some other command line options, type
        bins -h
to see them and see the bins(1) man page.
