PixelPost

PixelPost is a photo blogging platform based on PHP and MySQL. It is much better than WordPress if your intention is to host photos only. In this page you will find my work on PixelPost.

PixelPost Themes

Simple Reloaded 1.1 (XHTML compliant) - This is an enhanced version of the simple theme included in the default PixelPost installation. Comments are inline and navigation appears at the bottom of the image. The theme is designed to host photos which are 640 pixels wide (my requirement). Check out my photo blog to see this theme in action!

My new photo blog and pixelpost

Some of you would have already noticed the new photo blog link on this site. This photo blog is powered by PixelPost, a CMS exclusively for photo bloggers. It is pretty easy to setup and like WordPress, you can customize it using themes. For my blog, I have taken the “simple” theme and modified it a bit to have comments on the same page. I have named the changed theme as “simple reloaded for PixelPost” and it is released under the license  Creative Commons Attribution 2.5.

Photos are a very powerful medium. Every photo tells a story and for the photographer it is a very intimate story! These photographs will give a glimpse of my life.
