The Gallery pages are built up of categories which can be updated by adding posts, the problem with this was that each new image I posted had a date stamp of when I uploaded it. The other aesthetic issue I did not like was that you had to scroll down to see each image, I wanted all the images to be viewed at once allowing the viewer to enlarge individual images as they wish.
Whilst in the Wordpress workshop I learnt how to add a gallery to a post, rather than an individual image. There were different formats to show the images; tiled mosaic, square tiled,slideshow, cirlces and thumbnail grid.
Tiled Mosaic Thumbnail Grid
Square Tile Circles
Slideshow
I felt the squared tiled option was most appropriate in size and formality. If you hover over an image the title appears along with a caption, if you click on the image it enlarges to fill the screen with the caption beneath. I have decide to include the title, year created and medium within the caption.
