Has anyone used space on the Apple server to host web photo galleries produced in Lightroom? As a .Mac subscriber, we get quite a bit of space on the Apple server and I'd like to learn how go about placing web galleries produced in LR, either HTML or Flash formats, on the server. Up to this time I've used only the .Mac Homepage to display images, but I want to find an alternative to this - the image quality and UI are lacking I feel.
Sure, it's easy. Using your iDisk, go to the 'Sites' folder, and drop a folder containing your LR-generated site in there. Then figure out your site's index page address, using the following:

I guess SiteName is the folder name that was dropped in the sites folder?
Yes, the folder that LR exports, which contains images and the other Flash components, is the folder for the Site name. So if the LR exports folder "Project Web Gallery", the site name is: http://homepage.mac.com/YourDotMacID/Project Web Gallery.
What's next on my list is making a menu page that acts as a directory for several web gallery pages. I'll reply once I've accomplished that.
.Mac will only show a directory listing for sites created in Homepage (and iPhoto/iWeb, I think). Everything else is treated like an 'external' site, though with a similar address structure.
