Hi folks,

For those of you that remember/still use !WebGen, I'm sure you'll be
pleased to know that I am still developing it.

For those that don't !Webgen is a simple application that will take a
directory of images, GIF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG, SPRITE and PNG at last count,
and turn them into a complete web site.

Webgen2 Expands on the options Webgen offers, making the generated site
much more flexible, both the generate in the first place, and to use and
view.

All the code generated is as close as possible to the W3C's html
standards, and should validate to 4.01 transitional.

I've just uploaded the first beta release of WebGen2

This has a large number of improvements and additions to the original
!Webgen.

- The thumbnail page can be split up into smaller pages
- A site description can now be automatically added, which can then be
formatted within Webgen2
- A banner image can be added at the top of the index page
- The use of table to line up thumbnails has been improved considerably
- It is now possible to include the name of the image below each thumbnail
- The inter site navigation options have been improved slightly
- It is now possible to add a mailto: link at the bottom of the index page
- Previous/Home & Next tags can be edited
- It is possible to set colours, background image and fonts
- Meta information can be added
- All the style information can be extracted out into a stylesheet
- If CSS is used, code will validate to html 4.01 strict
- Nested image directories can be searched or ignored

This is just an outline of the changes.

To get the latest copy, please go to
http://www.argonet.co.uk/users/daves/software

Or, if you have the current !webgen, just load it to the iconbar and click
on the 'web' icon on the info window.

!Webgen2 is NOT an update for !Webgen, it is a replacement.

!Webgen and !Webgen2 are applications that will allow you to generate a
complete website from a directory full of images.

This is a beta version, please report any error you find, to
sup...@starfiend.co.uk

Have fun,

Dave
