I find it strange that you have to navigate to your web gallery using Safari on the iPhone. They should have put a menu item at the bottom of your photo albums that says "My Web Gallery" and have it integrated with all your other photos on your iPhone. That would have been cool.

Also, why do I have to actually send an email to send the photo. Why not just send the photo automatically once I select the album in my web gallery to send it to?

They could have done the integration a bit better.

Agreed on all points.

It's also just plain dumb that sites created on iWeb don't render properly on the iPhone. And I'm not just talking about Flash stuff like slideshows and Web Gallery. I guess the Internet on my $600 phone is "watered down" after all.

Thanks for pointing that out. My site seems to do okay except for the slideshows. Anything else I should look out for?

I'm using the new for '08 "Main Event" theme and it looks like crap on my iPhone. The main fonts used apparently aren't on the iPhone, so it defaults to Arial or Verdana or whatever. And the column sizes are all akimbo. It's just a mess. Looks great on the desktop though.

I have a couple of older sites, which use the "Travel" and the "Road Trip" themes. Those seem to look okay.
