New gallery tool for all you bloggers!
Our new friend Luke has added a new tool for us to play with… NextGen gallery tool. This tool allows us to post up galleries in our blog posts and on our sidebar etc. without using Flickr and other products. This is a first step to having full photo support for all of us to use… and it makes layout much nicer.
Here is an example gallery post… http://worldkayakblogs.com/jamesmcbeath/james-first-gallery/ … bear with me as I play with the features. If you look to the right of my post here, you’ll see a NextGen widget that I use to display my gallery on the sidebar… the options are many, layouts, styles, effects etc. Very cool tool. We’ll be using this site-wide to create loads of visuals.
You should have a Gallery option at the very right of your admin menu now. If not, go to the Plugins admin and ‘Activate’ the NextGen plug ins… both of them.Â
