Sorry, just too busy

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

I’ve just checked this site’s comment moderation for the first time in a long time. There have various requests for help getting the slideshow working. As you can see though, it doesn’t even work on my own site. I’m afraid I just don’t have any spare time to fix it. Come back next year! :(

Wedding photos, finally

Saturday, July 14th, 2007

These aren’t the official wedding photos, just mine, don’t worry. I finally got round to uploading them this week, and now here’s the slideshow, after much faffing around.

If you’ve not used it before, click the thumbnails along the bottom, or use the play button and navigation buttons. To see a bigger version of the main picture, click it to go to the detailed Zooomr page for that photo.

More info on these soon, but here’s the photos for now.

Australia 2003, Part 1

Thursday, February 1st, 2007

I’m starting to put all my old photos up on Zooomr, now that I’ve got the slideshow in a reasonable state, and can get at Zooomr photo sets. So, we begin back in 2003 with the first half of a long holiday in Australia, visiting family.

Zooomr favourites slideshow

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

I managed to get Zooomr sets working by modifying the xslt from last night’s post, but it was too easy, so I’ve knocked up new translations to grab my Zooomr favourites page instead.

2008/03/22: Sorry, this seems to be broken, but I don’t have to figure out why. I imagine it’s because of the recent zooomr upgrade. The zooomr smartset example still works though.

Flickr photoset as a slideshow : proof of concept

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Once again demonstrating the power of xslt, here is a Flickr photoset pulled into a slideshow. The actual photoset is here.

I’ll explain how I did it tomorrow, and attempt the same for Zooomr. Time for bed, at last!

Your Time Has Come

Friday, January 26th, 2007

I found this tonight on Flickr, and it made me laugh, so I thought I should share it. There are more of this cat in a photoset named “Pigeons Killer” that are worth a look too, particularly this one.

Hacking the slideshow

Wednesday, December 13th, 2006

This post is for “ovidiu”, whoever you are.

The request (from a comment on another post) was to do a slideshow from images found in a wordpress feed on his site. All I had to do was modify my XSLT file a little to convert your category feed into the format the slideshow expects.
