Pictures from home (and further)
As you
perhaps have noticed, I added a new link under journal in the right
menu, called photos. Finally I have consolidated my
photo albums Before I had several albums on topic (njbg, travel, korvezee,
etc.). The main njbg album is now at the
njbg site, the korvezee albums are in my album and the travel albums from
other peoples deleted...
Although the gallery is popular software, I do not like it anymore. It has too much code and features I do not need. I prefer to provide comments and do all resizing etc. myself with vim and image-magick and have the gallery software only do the display work. Luckily jimmac wrote a nice piece of software called o.r.i.g.i.n.a.l. It works and is very hackable. I do plan to port the gallery's mod_rewrite (providing useful url's) and slideshow features to my new photo album, but at this moment I think it is good enough to link.
Now I have a real good excuse to buy a nice digital camera and a scanner. I have lots of good old analog pictures to be added and it is weak to have stolen (but credited) so much pictures from people who do already own a digital camera.
The dark color is a bit in contrast with the rest of my site, but photo's look just better on a dark background.
