I just finished up this design for Nancy, this is her photoblog, 525600 Minutes. I did a whole bunch of stuff on this project, starting with getting her upgraded to the latest version of WordPress. Then I did a quick and easy installation of Johannes amazing wordpress photoblog plugin, YAPB, and created a custom design for it. Similar to my own photoblog, it’s got the date archives and navigation making it really easy to browse either by date or category.
I added some custom templates and other fun plugins to make things really much more functional - these are really nice ones, if you’re looking to do something similar I highly recommend them:
- Custom posts per page
- Exec php
- Headline images (I gave her a special font from my own collection.)
- Imp Links for that really cool links page formatting.
- Live calendar
- Preview Frame (a must have for WordPress 2.2)
- WP-slimstat, like shortstat, only cleaner and takes up less room in your database.
A few custom graphics, and one purchased from iStock, and she’s ready to start photoblogging!
I
YAPB.

This is beautiful Leanne!
I wish I had the cash to have mine done for me, although right now I’d like to have a host that doesn’t keep crashing.

It does look great! Very well laid out!
WOW! You worked so hard on this. And, I LOVE IT. I got home late last night, so I could not play with all the cool stuff here.
I got a picture posted in honor of you today.
I am swamped at work today and will announce on my blog this weekend!
Nancy, I’m glad you like coloring outside the lines, too!
