I use “sitelen mute” to create my image galleries. But how do I get my pictures there?

I usually dump all the pictures from phones and cameras into a big folder called “New”. Bad idea, but better than no backups, I guess.

~/Pictures/New

Sometimes I go through that folder and try to sort them into folders by year and topic. Care must be taken to not be overly specific otherwise the task never ends. About a dozen or two dozen subfolders per year usually do it. A subfolder per trip, for example!

~/Pictures/2020/Rorschacherberg

Sometimes I pick the nice ones to make an album. Like this one, from 2020. That is, I use “Geequie” in that folder and mark all the the images I want in the album by pressing “1”. I sometimes assign other meanings to the other numbers, like “today I’m going to use 2 for all the images with flowers becaues these really need to be in a different folder”. Either way, when I’m through, I limit the list to the images tagged with the number and use ‘Ctrl+M’ to move them to a new folder. In the case of wanting to create an album, I create a subfolder called “Album”.

~/Pictures/2020/Rorschacherberg/Album

Next, I add labels. Every image file gets a text file with the description, if any. There’s a simple tool called “fcaption” that comes with “fgallery” and “sitelen mute” which makes this really easy. Then I use “sitelen mute” to generate the gallery, which I then upload using “rsync” to the server.

~/Pictures/2020-rorschacherberg

Result:

Eventually, all of this gets moved to the external media disk.
