PageThing is an application which automates a tedious part of web-design: the creation of webpages to show a series of images, with navigational links between those pages.

Say you had 20 images, and wanted to make a page for each image - like a gallery. You'd normally make one page, insert the image and links, then copy it 19 times. Then you'd have to alter every single one of those pages, updating the links and changing the image as appropriate. How annoying, boring and time-consuming!

That's where PageThing comes in. You can just choose the basic formatting of your pages, choose a few options, and your pages will be created automatically!

PageThing will even take care of making sure all your navigational links are in place

What's New:
Full compiled application; no more reliance on AppleScript
Much faster generation of pages: up to 14 pages per second, depending on chosen settings
Progress dialog to show you how many pages have been made, and how many will be made in total
Ability to choose colors with the Mac OS color-pickers
One-click "snap to web-safe" feature for all web colors
You can still enter color values from the keyboard if you choose, and be warned immediately if the color isn't web-safe
Online help for every control in every dialog
Online tips and information about how colors are specified on the web
Ability to choose whether to use text or images for First, Last, Previous and Next links
Ability to add numerical links on each page, linking to all other pages
Relative text sizes
Choice of which application the pages will belong to (i.e. which app they'll open in when double-clicked).
