Adding the Content
I am currently adding all the photos as slides inside wordpress. The process is a pain, you have to create every single slide for the big background slideshows by hand and click through pages and pages of files in the media library to find the right one, while remembering what you added last and what you called the other images of the series.
The slideshows “Nature” and “Architecture” are complete, only “Event” and “People” to go (and maybe a mixed best-of one). When they are done you will see the slideshows in action behind the gallery pages, which have content now.
I still have to check with my boss if I can showcase the Web Layouts I did for the company, I’d really like to put them up here. Will do that soon!
Working on the site
Understanding how wordpress themes work from scratch is quite harder then I expected. Once you figure it out it is obvious, yet to find the right drop-down menu entry in the right sub-category that depends on whether you have already created a dependency… and so forth.
The main welcome site now has the architecture slideshow as background. Once I have all the other images online and sorted I am going to change it to a collection of my top-shots. Maybe I’ll throw a web layout in there, we will see.
