Photos on Google Maps

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 19:42:11 GMT

I'm quite excited about a new feature I've been working on for a while: now all my images can be found on Google Maps! The map is on the main page. As there are quite a few images, they are clustered in groups, and you can zoom by using your mouse scroll wheel or by clicking on the number icon to get to each image. The images are still to be found as country galleries in the top menu if you prefer to navigate that way.

China and Hong Kong wallpaper collection

BuyThisImage! launched

Wed, 08 Apr 2009 18:42:11 GMT

Due to increased demand for prints (thanks!), I needed to find a more convenient way to sell them. I found out about a new service called BuyThisImage!. The name is self-explanatory: when you see that link below a photo, clicking on that takes you to a page where you can buy a print. You can then go directly to checkout, or return to the main site to look around for more prints.

User interface updated

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 19:42:11 GMT

A minor update to the site UI: Highslide JS is a nifty script which pops up the images when you click on the thumbnail. I updated the code, and now you can see a control bar when you hover over an image.
