Displaying My Photos
March 10, 2006
One of the largest driving forces for me to create my blog originally was to have a web based gallery to manage and share my pictures with family and friends. Originally, I thought Gallery was the right solution for me. I used it for awhile, but, in the end it felt a bit clunky.
Eventually I played around with Flickr under repeated advice from Casey. It became immediately clear that this interface was much friendlier. I started using it and converted a lot of my old Gallery images. The more I used Flickr the more it became clear how much it rocks.
One problem… I really wanted to be able to present my galleries inside the look and feel of my website. This slowed down my conversion. I was caught now with two ways to manage images, each with great benefits, each with their own chunk of my images.
The solution is using FAlbum by Random Byte. Now I can have the best of both worlds. So click on my new “Photo” tab, and say goodbye to Gallery.

Your link to “Photo” tab doesn’t work and I’m interested in seeing the actual source of your sweet new image tab. Fix your link, ya pansy :D

Congratulations! You must be thrilled.. You will be an awsome Dad!
Thanks Mario, was surprised to see a comment from you here. I hope all is well.
[...] I changed the link for my Flickr pictures and they now displpay within my website. So you no longer get directed to the Flicker site. This is thanks to a plugin called FAlbum by Random Byte posted over at my freind Zach’s site NoSheep.net. You can see his post on the plugin here. [...]
