First is that I designed it based on a business card, and I started by putting it together in Photoshop.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.christopherwardphotography.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1397\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/2009\/07\/new-photography-site-up\/new-site\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?fit=500%2C470\" data-orig-size=\"500,470\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"New Christopher Ward Photography Site\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?fit=240%2C226\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?fit=500%2C470\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1397 alignnone\" title=\"New Christopher Ward Photography Site\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?resize=500%2C470\" alt=\"New Christopher Ward Photography Site\" width=\"500\" height=\"470\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?w=500 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/new-site.jpg?resize=300%2C282 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This site is much better representation of where I am at, and where I am trying to get to. Some of the other landscape pictures and city shots I really liked, and maybe I will find a place for them on this site somehow.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the cool things about this site&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The menu at the top with the rollover images is one big image and some CSS tricks. I plan to blog about that later. The index page, and the galleries page have slide shows that use <a href=\"http:\/\/jquery.com\/\">jQuery<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gruppo4.com\/~tobia\/cross-slide.shtml\">cross slide<\/a> plugin. It does the Ken Burns effect on the galleries page. Not sure if I should keep it. It seems like it is jerky and pixelated in versions 6 and 7 of IE. Works great on Firefox and Safari.<\/p>\n<p>Clicking on an image in a gallery brings up a larger image and allows you to move between the images using the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cyberward.net\/blog\/2009\/04\/how-to-use-thickbox\/\">Thickbox<\/a> jQuery plugin.<\/p>\n<p>The text on the galleries thumbnails is done with a transparent PNG overlay. I forgot that IE6 doesn&#8217;t handle it very well, and that IE6 could be used as much as 30% still. I might need to just redo those images with the overlay put on in Photoshop. I did have plans to change the thumbnails dynamically, but I might not bother now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I finally have the Christopher Ward Photography site up and running.
