Damn it was cold this morning, had to get a jug of water to wash the ICE off the windscreen of the car so I could go to work 😕
The Dashboard display read 2 Deg C as I left for work… sure is winter!

Hey!
Long time no hear! 😉
Just added some more galleries to the photo albums. Mostly various zoo photos I took a few years ago.
Go check them out! 😉

Another new plugin installed for testing – Alex Rabe’s NextGen gallery.
Currently still in beta testing so I expect possible bugs but so far it looks really good.
Latest ‘stable’ version is 0.74 from the above link, however if you go to his main home page theres a download to the latest test version 0.80 which is what I’ve downloaded today.
Many configurable options, allows multiple Galleries which can be grouped into albums. Photos can be uploaded in zip files (great for multiples), entire folders (with compatible browsers) and single pictures. Supports highly configurable watermarks too! The gallery setup page can also generate nested Wp Pages for you! 😉
Individual pictures or galleries can be added to posts and pages with simple tags. eg…
Two sidebar widgets are included –
For more information have a look at the plugin site.
To look at my photos check out the Photos page.
Enjoy!
Just installed a new WordPress Plugin called Marekkis Watermark-Plugin.
This Plugin will help me to upload some photos and let me insert a watermark.
Just to test it here’s a new photo…
The only little prob with this plug-in is that it needs you to modify one of the WordPress core files, however it’s fairly simple to do and the mod is explained on the websites installation page. I just have to remember it’s there when I do an update so that if I have to overwrite the file I re-modify it…
My next project for this blog is a gallery plug-in – looking at one now but will post it another time..
Till then, enjoy!
Greetings!
For some time now my girlfriend (a very active blogger) has been pestering me to start up my own blog site, so here it is!
I’ve never been much of a vocal person, previous websites have been plain and simple without many updates. The only thing I updated regularly was the photo gallery… I’m hoping with this site to be more active and refresh the content more often.
I’m doing this for many reasons, mainly to push through some changes in my own self being, as the problems with being too reserved is that I’ve missed many opportunities and have fallen behind in many projects. I’ve always believed that I can do anything I set my mind to and still do believe, but in the past I’ve not done things for the irrational fear of sticking my neck out too far and getting it cut off or upsetting others by my actions. Basically I’ve always tried too hard to avoid conflicts at my own expense… ( in some cases causing conflicts by avoiding others! )
So hopefully with this site and other changes I’m making to my personality and activities in life I can bring about more positive results for myself and those I around me. I’ve realised that I must act to achieve the things I want in life before they become out of reach. At 35 years old I have missed too much but can still achieve a lot if I act now.
The first 2 posts I’ve made when setting this site up are from my old website, as I work on this blog I’ll no doubt post more such thoughts, dreams or strange experiences. I also hope to integrate a working gallery of some sort, similar to what I had on the old sites, but for now I’ve put a few up for the sidebar random pics.
Other directions for this blog (which may change over time) will be about my hobbies such as the computer programs I work on, games I play both online and offline and indeed my photography.
So keep an eye on me, don’t expect daily updates but I should be able to make something fairly regular. Indeed feel free to prod me as always people trying to change their life need to be reminded of their commitments. This is why I’m linking this new blog to the changes I want to make in my life, by committing myself before others to make changes I become accountable for them, no longer can I hide inside myself from the world. So here I am, taking my big step forward, committing myself to continue this momentum and achieve something good in life.
Thankyou for visiting my blog and I hope to see more and contribute more as time goes on.
