Links of Wordpress tips

Getting NextGen gallery to link to page, not itself. http://www.kimwoodbridge.com/how-to-link-nextgen-gallery-images-to-an-individual-page-or-post-in-wordpress/

or: jackplug which looks like it might be a better solution, since it makes an alternate template with corresponding shortcode. perhaps this wouldn't break on plugin update. I think I'll try this first, for my current client. It could be used along with the nextgen additional fields plugin I think, if I didnt' want to dedicate the alt-text to linking. I like that it seems to make it possible for to have both options available on a single site: a usual nextgen lightbox gallery, and a linking to page gallery.

 Here's a good looking gallery of larger thumbnails.

DevOps Borat

One of the presenters at the Eclipse Conference pulled up DevOps Borat in several of his slides.

They were wicked funny. 

Looking at the twitter feed, I don't get all the jokes with out the context the presentation provided.  I think DevOps Borat will be my nutty professor on industry culture.

Yes, like the "how others see my job" matrices.

Child Theming

My first brand-new wordpress project in a couple years, as opposed to ongoing projects or conversion projects.   I'm excited to be using child theming. It makes sense.

Once again, the codex is clear and well-written and helpful. Wordpress Codex page on Child Themes.

I'm going to be reading this, see if there are any tricks I missed. http://themeshaper.com/modify-wordpress-themes/

U&lc hosted at CreativePro

Found the archive of Upper and Lower Case (U&lc) by John D. Berry.  Well, actually my graphic design professor pointed it out. 

I just started skipping around reading, but the first article listed about formatting/typography for a Table of Contents is just the kind of thing I find fun and fascinating.
