Hi,
I have a client who currently has a photography website created with some sort of content delivery network (I know this from builtwith.com). His site has 1000s of photos in hundreds of different categories with various sizes of each photo. The client wants to redesign the site with Wordpress.

What is the best way to import all of these photos into Wordpress while keeping their categories intact?

    Your question are incomplete and confusing. Please ask more clearly! :confused:

      I don't know what else to say. He has galleries with 100s of photos in each. Once in the gallery you can click to see the photo at a small, medium, or large size. All of these images need to be moved over to a wordpress site while staying in their respective gallery.

      What is the quickest way to move all of these photos to Wordpress?

      How can I keep them in their respective galleries without having to do so manually?

        Are they neatly organized on the back end of the current site? Do each of the photos have descriptive text to go along with them or is it just the image? If it's image only and organized in folders/subfolders by gallery there HAS to be a plugin out there that can handle that. There are about a million photo gallery plugins built for WP, so I would find it hard to believe that one wouldn't be able to manage a gallery of that size pretty easily.
