If you’ve used Zooomr, go help them out with a small donation. They need new hardware fast to get their latest version up and running. Get the full story here.
Get the donate link at the bottom of this page. We’re trying to give Kristopher a nice surprise when he wakes up in the morning.
The Zooomr team seem to have fixed their feeds now, as Flickr did in December. This means that all plugins that use XSLT to transform a Zooomr feed need to change their “media” namespace declaration, as outlined in the link above.
If you’re using my slideshow plugin you should either update to the latest version from wp-plugins.org, or hand edit your forward.xslt and reverse.xslt files to add the / on the end of the media namespace definition.
I discovered Zooomr today, and expect to use it for storing my photos while I’m on holiday in Canada. If I’m suitably impressed by it, I might even move my entire photo page to it. Having only used it for a few hours, Zooomr already looks pretty nifty, letting me specify where the photo was taken, showing a map too.
So, here’s my first attempt at hooking in a photo from my Zooomr profile, hopefully meaning I can get a snazzy pro account in the process!
See here for more info on getting a free pro account yourself. I couldn’t find out the exact difference between the normal account (also free) and the pro account, but I think it means a huge monthly upload limit, an unlimited space quota, and no adverts. You can’t sniff at that, really.
