Steve Jobs has made several comments that flash, which has been the primary source for photography sites, is becoming out dated. Reason being, most mobile devices do not support flash based sites, such as Blackberry, iPhone, and iPad.
Other than just mere incompatibility, it also poses the problem of slow loading speeds and a required plug-in (flash player).
So the question is what should photographers use in place of flash if they are going to keep up with the times?
One great alternative that people are going to is Javascript. It works on most mobile devices, it is fast loading, and there is a wide variety of transitions/animated galleries that look just as good as flash.
So if you are wanting to rebuild your site hopefully this will be helpful in deciding how you want it developed.
Feel free to post your javascript based photography site.
I'm currently using facybox.js which is a great solution.
