Photos are go!
Well - finally - I’ve found the sort of software that I’ve been pining for the past two months. Basically, I wanted the ability to post normally, but also post photoblog style images every so often, and I’d pretty much given up all hope of finding anything to suit this.
However, whilst I was browsing the WordPress Codex yesterday, I found a brilliant plugin - Yet Another Photoblog - by Johannes Jarolim. It ties together everything that I want - automatic thumbnail generation, a simple interface, EXIF parsing, and allows me to write a little comment about the photos that I’m taking.
So, last night, with the aid of the amazing A List Apart tutorial on creating CSS drop-shadows, I got the image displaying nicely, and then added Litebox 1.0 to get a nice image display. The next step is to get the EXIF information displaying the way I want it. But for the time being, I’m going to let this go. I hope you all like it - please leave a comment and let me know what you think!
