I’ve been able to work out a number of bugs and quirks with the new gallery code, and I have both the jQuery plugin and Zenphoto theme code available for those who are interested. This is still a work-in-progress, so I make no guarantees that all will work perfectly, so please treat this as [...]

New image gallery interface theme: Silhouette
Monday, 1 March 2010
After 2 years with my Galleria and jCarousel mash-up theme for my gallery, I decided it’s time for another face-lift.
While it’s still in development, and a little rough around the edges, I’ve enable the new theme for my gallery. I’m calling it “Silhouette”, and when it’s finished I should have it available both as [...]
New pictures!
Saturday, 19 September 2009
First, I’ve updated the galleries with well over 150 new images, with loads of new 2009 albums for stuff I’ve shot since January.
Art community sites
Wednesday, 8 April 2009
I was emailed an invite to Artician today. It looks like an alternative to DeviantArt, so I thought I’d give it a try. I got as far as registering, but I’m not sure I’m in love with it.
It still appears to be very much in beta: Uploads not working, import not working, [...]
Imitation is the sincerest form of… something…
Tuesday, 22 July 2008
Apparently someone (other than me) has been using my site as a reference (i.e. their own) when trying to book shoots with models.
Just to be clear, it’s really only “me” if you you get a message from…
my email: alex@alexwilsonphoto.com

Of course, trying to use someone’s site when the site name doesn’t match [...]
Combined Gallery and Blog RSS feeds
Wednesday, 30 April 2008
I’ve added an aggregate RSS feed that contains both the Gallery and the Blog feeds. You can visit/add the feed from this link, or you can grab it from the root of the website.
WordPress update
Thursday, 10 April 2008
I’ve updated the underlying WordPress to v2.5. My next task is to change the theme around a bit so it matches the gallery a bit better. In the meantime, please bear with me — the site may jump from theme-to-theme as I switch stuff, and certain features may disappear or move around as [...]
Gallery – feedback, please!
Wednesday, 19 March 2008
I added about 450 images into the Gallery. Mostly more old images, I’m saving some of the newer ones until I work out the kinks.
With some actual content in there, is much easier to see how the beast behaves. Notably, the performance on pages with lots of images is quite slow. I [...]
Gallery…
Wednesday, 19 March 2008
I’ve (temporarily) got the “old” gallery offline — I’m hoping to have a new gallery up any running later today. I’ll keep the old one and move it to another URL so it’ll still be available once I finish the move.
The new one is going to by quite snazzy, but more of a “traditional” [...]
2007 in review…
Monday, 7 January 2008
2007 was a very busy year, with our daughter progressing through her first year being a huge part of it.
My second book project ended up running well overdue, but I’m happy I was able to use the extra time to to shoot even more for it. I’m really proud of how it [...]
