In our continuing effort to discover an easier way to maintain a page for friends and family to view, we are now running our site in WordPress. Let’s face it, the other attempts were overkill. We needed something simple, but effective. Therefore, the site was cleared, and WordPress 2.8 was installed, with an outdated version of a Picasa Viewer. Now, we just need to see how easy it is to maintain.
I like the idea of maintaining the photos in Picasa, and highlighting them here. Of course, it won’t be long before I will need to start paying, as my 1 GIG would be gone quickly if I use picasa faithfully.
I have been trying some other photo gallery WordPress plugin’s, such as NextGen, but i find it a bit cumbersome to set up the albums. Who knows, maybe that is the route I will go. All I know, is running joomla as before, with Zen Photo was getting problematic. The other option is a standalone photo gallery as before – either Gallery2, ZenPhoto or Coppermine. I am not convinced that is the way to go as Eva is be upset that the simplicity is gone.
