So as I have been saying here I am hoping to launch a photoblog, I am now doing just that. It can be found at http://photoblog.devco.net/.
The idea is to post a photo a day, now I cannot take a photo a day, I am just too busy at work for that kind of thing. So I will get stuff from my 25gig or photos archive and will post new things as they come. As it is now there are posts for almost 2 weeks that I created.
It is powered by Movable Type 3.14 and making the templates was much easier than I first expected. My other sites are done from templates that I found on template sharing sites etc, this one I made myself so I’d appreciate any feedback on the design.
I like MT 3.x, I will be upgrading my other blogs to it, for now though I will need multiple installs of it unless I want to go and buy a full version of it, but I do not think this will break their T’s and C’s, I will just give each individual blog owner their own install which should be the same as someone on a shared hosting service installing their own copy, this should be well within the bounds of whats allowed.
On the comments question, I allow non registered comments but they need to be approved and I left TypeKey there in case people want to use that. Comments via TypeKey authenticated people will not need approval.
There are some changes I still want to make to the site:
1) Implement another RSS feed. Dave wants me to link to the full image in my feed, I guess this may annoy some people so I will make it a choice between thumbnails and full images.
2) Create some kind of people link section, like the one on this site, where I will link to other photoblogs that I like.
NOTE: This is a static archive of an old blog, no interactions like search or categories are current.
