  • 525600 Photoblog Design

    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 loveĀ 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.

    :thanku: guys! Photoblogs are always so much of the same thing. I personally enjoy a photoblog that’s not your typical black/gray/white.

    Nancy, I’m glad you like coloring outside the lines, too!
