Update on Photos
Since the birth of this blog I have had issues with posting photos. Whether I was using the Wordpress gallery, Gallery2 by Menalto, or the Singapore photo gallery I always had issues while uploading photos. In the past couple weeks I have spent way too many hours late at night trying to figure this out. Without getting to technical I think the problem is with my website host, 1and1.com because I found some other customers of their complaining about similar issues that I was having. I probably could just use Flickr, but my nerdy side is overcomes my culinary side in this case and requires me to host my gallery rather than using someone else’s service.
Anyhow, I am planning on trying out another web hosting company called Dreamhost because it has been recommended by the people behind Wordpress and Gallery2. Hopefully, that will mean everything will just magically work.
In the meanwhile, I will probably continue posting without spending too much time adding photos right now. I’ll go back and update old posts with photos once I have everything up and running.
Thanks for your patience!
I found it real easy just to pull photos from Picasa, check it out http://timbroder.gpowered.net/photos/
Tim, thanks for the tip, but I want a solution where I host my own photos on my own server. With picasa as well as flickr I am pretty sure all the images are hosted on their servers instead. Anyhow, I checked the forums for Dreamhost and I didn’t find many reports about people complaining about either Gallery2 or Wordpress which they have single-click installations for so it should be easy to set up as soon as I have the time.
