Can you use an external site to create a gallery for wordpress?
-
Hey
Ok. Basically I would like to create a small thumbnail style gallery where you can simply scroll threw the images (this is in case I have lots of image I want to be available however don’t want to clog the page up). Now I don’t host my own wordpress site and want to try and avoid it if possible as its extra costs to host it. Are there any external sites which allow you to upload and create a gallery with them (such as the above) then supply you with a code that you can simply drop on your wordpress page? so in otherwords without having to use PLUGINGS as the only way I can get plug-ins is if I host my own wordpress site which as explained above – I don’t want to do as its extra costs.Also ive noticed that if I DID host my own site, they would give me 50gb free space – would that add onto the normal 3gb wordpress gives you for uploading images etc or is this a separate thing?
Any help would be appreciated.

You will need to hire a web host http://wordpress.org/hosting/ and set you your own WordPress.org software install to install any plugins.
There is no FTP access and no plugin capability on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/plugins/All blogger initiated JavaScript is stripped out by the software to preserve security on this multiuser blogging platform.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/There is no upgrade you can purchase that changes anything at all stated here http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/ FTP access, and plugins are available only for VIP bloggers http://vip.wordpress.com/our-services/ or for those with WordPress.ORG installs.

On free hosted WordPress.com blogs we can create galleries. An image gallery will display a set of thumbnail images attached to a particular post or page. When clicked, gallery images are displayed in a full-size carousel view, or you can choose the slideshow option to have them move forward automatically. http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/
