Changes
There are many reasons why I never updated the blog, or why the gallery stopped working. The main reason was just being slothful with updates, to the point where there was no point updating as the moment had passed. So my life as a blogger has finished, I couldn't write for toffee, so it's no great loss. I still have a massive amount of photographs though, so I think I'll concentrate on those.
I originally used IDS to display my photos, but it died of inactivity. I then changed to Gallery2, but I found it a bit fat and bloated, plus it ran like a dog on my hosting. So I started to write my own scripts to produce a static gallery and had plans to write a new gallery web application. Mainly due to having no free time, what with the wife and kids, plus the endless hours at work, I've never managed to actually write anything.
I came across Lightbox2 and all its clones a while ago and decided that I needed to use something like that to display my images. I'd rather have the full blown web app that I have in my mind, but that's never going to happen, so this will have to suffice until something better comes along.
