Very good indeed.

Is CMS a software you buy and use in your own site?

ppdd:
It's standalone software: http://cmsaccount.com/photostore/overview/

It's front end is better than ktools, in my opinion. At least until the next major Ktools version (4).

I found the admin kind of crazy and confusing compared to ktools, but I didn't spend much time with it. CMS does seem to add lots of features and front end templates.

BTW, this is a great looking site, congratulations!

Hope you will keep us posted on how it goes for you.

Thank you!

I think it still needs some improvements.. I hope I won't have any major issues with CMS account.. I will definitely update this thread If I run into trouble with it..

One small issue is when you download a new version from their site and install it, all your modifications are at risk.. You will have to do every single customization all over again if you are not careful.. Luckily I just reverted to the older version as I had back up files..

Thanks!

Your site looks pretty good too.. Did you have to make a lot of customizations or does Ktools actually look better now? Because It didn't look that clean and decent last time I checked their demo a year ago..

I like wordpress and use it a lot..

The downside with wordpress is that it is not a specialised photostore, so it lacks many features.. Like "multiple uploads" which is very important..


@madelaide and ppdd, thank you guys!
