My recent SmugMug customization for Michael McGinnis Photography includes a slideshow on the homepage which uses SlideshowPro for Flash to automatically pull images from one of Mike’s galleries, using the gallery rss feed. This integration between a SmugMug gallery and SlideshowPro was a little easier said than done.

I couldn’t find good help on this, so I pieced it together myself. Maybe I’ll post some instructions someday.

As time permits, I’ve been working on a new coat of paint for my site. Hopefully the new design will make a few things a little easier to find, and I can feature some recent work a little more prominently. My site is a custom theme I’ve created for WordPress, a popular blog system that works well for many applications. Please excuse any broken links or missing images you run across. Let me know how you like the site.
