PradipM Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Is there a way one can create a home page of the photographer/contributor in Alamy with a selected # of pictures, the URL of which can be shared in social media, etc. We can create a lightbox, but that can be shared only via email. I don't want to direct someone to an external website. Any ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sally Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 On your dashboard, click on “Link to your images on Alamy” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDoug Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 I tried using the method suggested by Sally (actually it's still included at the bottom of the page), but decided instead to base links on a search term. Those links can be emailed, and I also use them on my personal website: dondouglas.com. Clicking on the thumbnails links to particular sets on Alamy, all images in which share a particular tag.

RedSnapper Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 This? No need to show the entire link on the page, Link to Pradip's photos on Alamy km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to show the entire link on the page, Link to Pradip's photos on Alamy km The only problem with doing that is when you type in a search term, it takes you out of Pradiop's images and searches within all of Alamy. If you use the link Sally mentioned, it will only search within your own images. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, the images look better on Keith's link, but I think I would go with searchability. Jill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then Google URL shortener can be found at: https://goo.gl Of course, if the person you send this link to chooses to clear the filters, then they will start searching the whole Alamy DB again. But following an advanced search on Contributor Name, further searches are refined to the images belonging to this contributor until the filter is cleared. Bad luck if there is another Alamy contributor with the same name though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
