Photo features in WordPress

During the last few days I’ve been working on some enhancements to FML. One of them was to upgrade to the latest WordPress release, and unlike the last time I upgraded, the process went off without a hitch. Another thing I added to FML is better photo features, thanks to a wonderful plugin developed by Joe Tan of tan tan noodles (http://www.tantannoodles.com/) called Flickr Photo Album. I had tried using an earlier version of this plugin a while ago and wasn’t quite satisfied. The latest version, compatible with WordPress 2.1, is stellar. The most visible part of the plugin for FML readers is the new “Recent Photos” section in the lefthand navigation. A link at the bottom of the recent photos will take you to a new photo page where you can browse through all of my Flickr photo sets without leaving FML. I am still trying to figure out how to make the photo pages look better via CSS tweaks, but I like the functionality that is there.
