4.0 seems to work so far.

I’ve pretty much added back into WordPress all the content that was in my original website. Now I’ll need to revisit it all to make sure it should be on the site. A lot is out of date and some of it was just added because I needed to flesh the site out a bit when I was looking for work. Which shows you how long this content had been up here.

As a photographer, finding the right way to display images on my site has been challenging. I needed to display them portfolio-like, with thumbnails on the page. I thought I’d use the regular galleries, had figured out how to create galleries that look OK, only to run into an issue that no matter how I order them, they don’t show their posts in the correct order. orderby=”menu_order” didn’t work.

So I got a gallery plugin, NextGEN Gallery, to which I added some code to size the thumbnails in IE properly (My thanks to Microsoft for making everyone’s job harder!), only to realize the gallery animation is Flash, so no iOS devices.

Figures.

This is my first post that isn’t “Hello World!”. I’ve already hacked the theme by making a child of Mantra, but I’m still figuring out what I want the design to be. Bear with me…
