The last two days I completely re-worked the pictures archive on the site. We are now running
Gallery. I haven’t updated the rest of the site yet or the older web log entries to represent this change but it is in place and the main page navigation bar should take you there.
Since there are approximately fifteen gigs in photos it is taking a significant amount of time to import them all. Between that and having to deal with bugs (like my camera naming Jpegs with an extension of JPE, which gallery doesn’t like) it has become quite a bit larger project than I originally anticipated. I am also taking this opportunity to clean out years of thumbnails and other garbage that has built up in the photo directories.
As of right now I’m about halfway through importing 2003 photos and will continue to import the other photos as time permits. From an overall perspective I’m about 30% done importing photos. Hopefully I should be able to finish up tomorrow evening.
Please let me know if you run into any issues.
