June 2008

On the recent trip to Arizona/Utah/Nevada, Kevin took us to see the Rainbow Bridge National Monument.  I took a series of 80 pictures to create a panorama and then uploaded it to Gigapan.  Not too bad for a first attempt.

PicLens is a fantastic photo viewer browser plug-in. I have modified my photo gallery to run with it. After installing the plug-in, navigate to my gallery and click on the little blue arrow that appears when you hover over a picture. That album will be loaded in Piclens’s 3D viewer.

Went to a Buckley family reunion on Kevin and Cheryl’s houseboat. I took about 700 pictures, but I need to do a lot of sorting to get the good ones. Should be up in a week or so.

I had a new A/C unit installed at my house a few days ago. Raleigh Heating and Air came promptly and installed a new coil and outside unit.  It took them around six hours to put it in.  I’d recommend them to anyone who has a need for this kind of service.

I’m moving the website to a different host, so stuff will be broken for awhile. I’m thinking about switching Gallery software to zenphoto, since the regular gallery2 software seems like overkill.
