Department Gallery

All pictures here may be used for any purpose by members of the Computer Sciences Department of the University of Wisconsin or its alumni. If you are outside the department please email your request to use a picture to "pubs" at the cs server. Please indicate who you are, which pictures you would like to use, and for what purpose.

These images are, for the most part, uncropped. Feel free to crop them as you see fit.

To add a gallery, please place all pictures of a single event in a directory located in a publicly accessible place under your home directory. Make the new directory's name something descriptive. Directories can have nested subdirectories if that makes sense. Subdirectories will be preserved.

Then, email "pubs" at the cs server stating where the pictures are located.

You can add a photographer's attribute and a caption for each file if you create an XML file called "captions.xml" in the folder along with the pictures. Please see here for more information.

Adding captions to a gallery

Create an xml file called "captions.xml" in the folder in which your pictures are located.

The "document" tags are <gallery> and </gallery>.

The text of the first instance of <footer> will be added to every photo even if that particular photo does not have a caption.

<caption> tags must include the filename attribute. The value of this attribute is simply the file name of the image. The text within the <caption> tags will be shown when the full resolution image is shown.

Here is a sample captions.xml file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<gallery>
	<caption filename="filename1.jpg">Caption text goes here.</caption>
	<caption filename="filename2.jpg">Another caption goes here.</caption>
	<footer>Photographs by John Q. Photographer</footer>
</gallery>
