    Gallery and small update

    Hey, just a small update. I added galleries to this site, now I can specify some tags as gallery tag, which, instead of generating a log as a list, generate a grid like a gallery. I already added some of my old photos, so feel free to check it out here: #gallery. And I’ll add more as I look for anything that I deem nice, pretty or just interesting. I have backlog of RAWs that I never processed too… Typical me.

    And like for many things, I made it a little icon! :)

    golog is still in beta as of writing this post, so, sadly, you cannot use it :P It was very easy to add this, barely an inconvenience, just 85 changes according to git. I still need/want to change the way I generate logs, galleries and indexes to use HTML templates, instead of hardcoding HTML in the code, but it’ll work for now. Worse is better, right? ;)

    This doesn’t handle posts in any special way, it literally just embeds the content into the gallery. On my website and in the example I simply clip the overflow, but that’s CSS specific, so up to you. This means you can also use this for non-image data, maybe like videos, poems, what have you.

    Alright, this is it for now. I looked at my notes for possible blog posts, and so many of them are negative. I don’t want to post negative stuff all the time, like ranting about some technology or what not. I need to space them out, so maybe I’ll just write little updates here and there. A game review? A software recommendation? Maybe you should email me and tell me how stupid this blog is what you think? Then again, that’s just asking for trouble.

    Hopefully I’ll come up with something interesting next time! See ya!
