Creating Smart Web Page Albums
You can use the Aperture Smart Album feature to gather images from the library or from
projects and place them on web gallery pages automatically. Smart Albums gather images
based on search criteria that you specify. For example, you can create a Smart Web Page
Album that gathers your select images from across the entire Aperture library. Then each
time you rate an image Select, Aperture automatically adds it to your Smart Web Page
Album and to its web gallery. You can then update your MobileMe account with pages
of your most up-to-date select images or post them to your website.
Note: The Smart Album feature is not available for web journals.
To create a Smart Web Page Album of your images

3 If necessary, click the Smart Settings HUD button (with a magnifying glass icon) to the
right of the Smart Web Page Album name to show the Smart Settings HUD.
