Features
- Requires no installation; just unzip and run
- Uses standards-compliant, pure html, interface.
Uses no plugins or proprietary extensions.
- Has a powerful and flexible sharing model, which can work in both a fine-grained and
course-grained fashion.
- Web page generation is "on-demand". Html pages are never stored, you
do not have to regenerate web pages after making changes to albums. It's
a true web "application"-- any changes are always immediately reflected to
all viewers.
- Supports text input and display in all languages (full Unicode support).
- Full localization (l10n) support. Localized for English and German.
- Supports browsing with fast automatic image scaling (resizing).
- Automatically assigns dates to all photos in an album, from either
the file date or the embedded EXIF metadata from the camera/scanner.
Allows manual overrides for automatic date settings
- Automatically orders album pages based on date. Allows for manual override
of automatic page orderings.
- Can send graphical email invitations to albums.
- Can rotate images.
- Can generate thumbnails as a continuous background process.
- Has an embedded FTP server for secure drag-n-drop file operations
(uploads, downloads, renames, etc.) between the web client and a
remote Pixory instance. This server is not simply grafted onto the
web application as a separate entity, but is intimately connected
with, and controlled by, the web interface.
- Integrated "Contact"/email address management.
- Comes packaged as either a completely self-contained java web application,
or as a Servlet 2.3 compliant Web Application that is ready for hot deploy into
a java application server like JBoss or Tomcat.
- File upload and file download, for individual images or in bulk
archives.
- Will run on any operating system that
supports a 1.4 or 1.5 java runtime environment (JRE).
- Is completely self-contained. Requires no third party packages, aside
from the JRE.
- Stores all user-entered album data in standard XML, accessible
to the user independent of Pixory.
- Can display image metadata such as the EXIF information embedded
in image files by most digital cameras and scanners.
- Is secure. The combination of a web interface and java
offer a very secure facade to present to the internet. There are
no general serices or hooks into the operating system added by
Pixory. The only functionality that is enabled is what you see
directly in the web interface.
