I have been working on a Photolog which uses WordPress and would really like to know what people think of it. The features of this Photolog include:
– XHTML compliant code
– Simple once click addition of photos, auto thumbnail and resizing
– Extraction of EXIF information from original photo and saved as meta
– Easy installation, as easy as installing WordPress
– Simple, clean design and look
– Simple navigation
I still have some more work to get the archives and the paged navigation work correctly, but here is Pictorialis – My new Photolog.
Here is a beta version. This might have some errors so please be careful with existing databases. Post errors/suggestions on here.
Thanks.

Maybe I’m just being ignorant, but when I downloaded the files to update my CURRENT wordpress installation I found that the files were for someone who hasn’t already setup WordPress? The installation/readme file was a little inconclusive as to what I should do – replace ALL the current wordpress files? Is it so hard to write out a good installation file? Help please..
I haven’t played with too many photologs, but I have recently begun searching for something to use. This seems simple enough on the front end, what does the admin side look like?
I’ll wait to redo my photolog once you finish this one babe. Thanks a bunch! Happy Easter to you hun!
As I said over at WebToolsCollection…I’m not at all PISSED about NOT being able to BETA test this. Sniff.
I didnt think you would be pissed.
Just a couple more items before I put out the code for everyone.
The installation was easy. I noticed one new feature….I can add pictures from the post.php page. I am currently modifying the wp-layout.css as I want to put little pics up. You can see it at http://ssovida.com/phoblog/wp-layout.css
BTW noticed a small bug while posting this…the comment area runs into the “toledo bloggers” list…so I can’t clearly see what I am typing when I get to that area.
So Craig, you gonna test for me or not?
Will this be included in the second coming of wuhwuh? Also, are you still thinking about packaging a wiki? I’m about to install a wiki on my site but will wait if it might be included. From what I see the photoblog looks great – cool pics.
Mark,
For whatever reasons, I can get neither version to work at all. No idea what the problems are. I just gave up. I’ll take another stab at it soon. From what I’ve seen it’s a great addition to the WordPress family!
