I'm just putting the final touches on my new gallery and thought I'd put it out there for a few comments.
It's quite a different look for plogger, but it seems to work quite well for me. I've implemented a "latest uploads" panel on each page that I thought was missing from the original design.
Take a look at http://digitaldusk.com/gallery - any comments/opinions are welcome.
Well actually, this is implemented as a theme in Beta3! I'd need to clean things up a bit first though before putting it out there (I've done a few hacks in plog-functions).
Is because Beta3 your titles are different for each page or you are doing something with code? Anyway, where i can download beta3 and is there risk of losing current gallery, i mean is there doing upgrade or i just replace files? Please help with this!
Dusk, that is awesome to hear. You should consider creating your own function library (just add an extra PHP into your theme folder and include it in your plog-head theme file). That way you can distribute your modified or custom functions without having to hack the core.
Excellent idea! I've already added a few minor php files to the theme directory. Shouldn't be too much of a problem to get it together as a true theme.
Well, I've cleaned up my theme somewhat, and thought now would be a good time to put it out for anyone that wants to give it a try. I'd be interested to know how it goes.
Dusk, thanks for this, just tried it out on my test server. I just wanted to report a couple of minor glitches. Does your theme scale with different thumbnail sizes? On my test gallery the thumbnails are a little bigger than yours and the frame on the left on right appears to cut off. Also, the frames are not appearing at all for me in Internet Explorer. Overall, shaping up to be a great theme!
Thanks for the feedback Mike. The frames not showing up is a problem with IE rendering transparent PNGs - the css needs to use the full url to the frame images. I haven't tested it out with different sized thumbs, but I'll have a look soon.
And btw, I integrated most of your fixes for plog-functions.php into the SVN version, besides the one that deals with plog-download.php, because doing it this way breaks the "allow recursive download" feature.
