Flickr-Gallery Plugin – good stuff!
Nov 22nd
I use Flickr to host my photos and I’ve always wanted a better way to present them on WordPress blogs and this weekend I think I found it. Flickr-Gallery is a great plugin. It is easy to set up and use and it integrates well with my theme. It has a nice selection of short code options.
The only thing I use which is missing is the ability to link or preferably, display, a slide show. I shoot a lot of pictures of our kids activities (skateboarding, soccer, basketball, swim team, etc.) and sharing them as a Flickr slide show is something I do frequently.
I found a solution to the missing slide show by using the Light Window plugin in conjunction with the Flickr URL for the slide show I am interested in presenting.
LEGO Theme released
Nov 2nd
This afternoon I finally had a few minutes to fix a couple of issues and release my LEGO theme. This theme is currently in use on my LEGO web site. The theme free to download and use. There are still a couple minor nits with it which I need to fix and I want to add a couple more color schemes but I wanted to get it out. It supports four colors schemes – red, blue, green, and yellow. Enjoy.
