Ohio Penworks Image Catalog

[mbroberg]

This link will take you to Ohio Penworks' new Image Catalog. These are all the images I have that are ready to make blanks with. Not all of these images are in my Etay Shop but I wanted a way to make them available to people. The images are separated into broad categories to, hopefully, make it easier for people to find what they are looking for. As I acquire more images the catalog will be updated. I'll post notifications of updates.

The first folder contains a document with instructions on how to purchase blanks made from images in this catalog.

Now I am asking for a favor. Go to, and look at, the catalog. Let me know if you have any difficulty navigating it. I'm also open to any suggestions to make it easier to use or to make the "Please Read" instructions easier to understand.

Thanks!

I can see the folders but cannot open any using my Android tablet.

Is using google apps instead of msft apps a prerequisite?

Download requires zip/unzip the some app to use/view but does not indicate which type of app.

I don't know. Everything was created and saved on my HP Probook that is running Windows 11 Pro and then stored them in Goggle Drive. The photos are all jpg. They open for me in "Photo", which I believe is a MS program within Windows. I did not compress anything. I can access them fine on my PC using Google Chrome. I also accessed them on an incognito window to make sure a person did not have to be signed into a Google account in order to access. I can also access them on my IPad and IPhone. I don't have any Android devices to test the link on.

Is anyone else having problems or have any suggestions to fix this issue?

All works as I expected; both opening folders and files using my Windows laptop and Firefox or Chrome browsers.

Looks like you've got a lot of time invested in the images.

Glad to hear it. I had a lot of free time for the last couple of weeks.

Michael,

It works fine on my MacBook Pro. I do have to go into each folder individually but once I'm in a folder I can double click on a jpg file and then I can easily use my arrow keys to move from one image to the next.

My constructive feedback would be that finding a way to do this with thumbnails would be more inviting to people.

Thanks,

David

I agree. That is what I originally had in mind. I tried several different programs (Power Point, Google Photos, Amazon Photos, several "On-Line Photo Album" programs) but couldn't get any of them to do what I wanted them to do. If I ever come across something that works I will probably convert.

Michael,

I like it, divided by categories, digging deeper to see all images.

It works fine on my Samsung Ultra 21.

Did you write the code? Commercial app? Is it easy to maintaim? Without categories it would be overwheming.

Are you using Google drive?
It's clean and simple to use.

EDIT:

Can the output be downloaded to our pc or phone? Possibly a pdf.

I don't know the first thing about writing code. I placed the images in folders an uploaded them to Google Drive. I think it will be easy to maintain because as I acquire more images it is a simple matter of putting them in the correct folders. I tried to download as a PDF but would have to do each page in each folder individually. All of the folders can be downloaded as a zip file.
