Welcome to my redesign - okay, I'm kidding. This is a temporary "interval" theme. It didn't take too long. I am still redesigning but mean while, I'm putting this up. Why? I have some other projects I need to get stuck into, which reduces my time a little. I'd also like to contemplate my redesign a bit as I'm currently unsure about its direction. To understand more and the reasons behind my interval theme, read I haven't redesigned, but stay tuned!

Photoblogging with WordPress

Yesterday I decided I wanted a photoblog. Not because I need one, really, because I really don’t need one. I have other means of doing these things with my photos. But since over at deviantART I’m closing comments on my photography, I decided I’d use a photoblog for those that truly did want to leave me a comment.

I searched around for photoblog software. In the past, I have never really been that pleased with any photoblog software. There was always something that disappointed me. I knew WordPress could be used as a photoblog, and I only knew of themes that really enabled this to be possible. But yesterday I finally came across a plugin that turns WordPress into a photoblog. It works great, and now I will probably never use purpose built photoblog software but this plugin with WordPress (cause we all know I do like WordPress!).

Yet another photoblog is perfect. The way it changes WordPress into a photoblog is actually quite impressive. I personally would never have thought of it. I also found a nice little theme, made specifically for use with yapb. Naturally, I had to edit it to match the rest of my website, since I will link directly to it. Great theme anyway, modified or not.

It’s amazing how WordPress is a blogging platform, though can be easily used as a CMS for a full-blown website or even a photoblog. WordPress’ possibilities truly are endless.

    I saw the PhotoBlog you put up, it works SO nicely with your theme and it’s such a nice addition to your blog.

    Thanks TechZ ;) I just need to remember to update it a little more often (along with this blog). :P
