Brian and Ching Circa 2003
Posted on July 27, 2005 by Ching under Life.
Brian and I are working on revamping the website for the Mid-Kansas Military Vehicles Preservation Association (MKMVPA). My first project was to get the the 1200 plus pictures Brian’s dad had amassed from various rallies over the years into some sort of gallery so that people can view it.
I finally settled on a really basic PHP photo gallery script that automates everything. Adding more photos is just as simple as dumping photos into the designated folder of the webhost.
Totally simple. No coding whatsoever. Should make maintenance a snap.
That is my primary goal, actually. I want the website to be low maintenance. That way they can update the content whenever they feel like it and they won’t have to do any coding or FTPing. I’m still looking for a good CMS program, though.
Thinking of either Drupal or Mambo or maybe just WordPress. I haven’t decided yet. If anyone has suggestions, please feel free to leave it on the Chatterbox.
I would enable comments in this blog, but I’m tired of getting flamed. LOL.
By the way, the significance of the picture above is that I found it while browsing through the MKMVPA galleries. That was at Car Show held at Lake Afton a couple of years ago. I thought it was funny because we were just there this past weekend.
Anyway, if I come across any others I’ll be sure to share them with you all. Don’t forget to check the Flickr album — it’s always being updated!
