External add-on : show the picture of the day outside PixelPost (in another WEB SITE)

[Dominik]

Hi,

I created a special PP toolkit very easy to install in PixelPost.
You only need to drag a folder at the root of your PP gallery and that's all !

After that, you can call a special request to show your images outside PP gallery, for i.e. inside another web site (HTML or PHP page)

1) the first function can be used into an HTML page only (static page). You have to create a IMG tag and you have to call a specific URL with parameters (or not).

2) the second way needs PHP. You just use <i>include("")</i> to insert dynamically an IMG HTML tag in your page. In that case, you can use several very interesting and powerful parameters (max 'size' in pixels, 'url' for a direct link into PP image, 'format' for THUMB or IMAGE source, etc).

Here's an example with just an URL tag (and a random image mode):
http://photoblog.fusina.net/pp_webImage/?type=image&num=-9&url

That picture directly comes from my PP gallery.

Here's another example (http://photoblog.fusina.net/pp_webImage/examples.php) with the PHP function now.

I'm writing the documentation.
I would like to finalize it before post freely my kit here.

If you correctly understand/read French and you'd want to help me to translate my french document, please, contact me ! ;)

'Sources' will be distribute freely, of course ;)

[note] I use my functions to show PixelPost thumbs on my website's homepage (my blog). Look at the right column (http://www.fusina.net)..

If I knew French, I'd help. :( But I'm interested in your add-on :) Please reply when it's ready for download.

Gina.
For the moment, I need free time ;)
I'm so busy to translate the package in English now.
Be a little bit patient again, ok ? ;)
(I'll post soon)

[Gina]

Of course! I know about not having much free time :)

Maybe pixelpost needs an API in later versions... seems like lots of cool little external tools could be written. Badges, etc etc.

The possibility to resize the thumbs seems interesting.
I wanted to create a linkpage of friendly photoblogs
using the addon latest thumb (http://forum.pixelpost.org/showthread.php?t=1033&highlight=Latest+thumb).
But the result was dreadful. The thumbs of different photobloggers were sometimes too large or too small.
Your addon seems to be a good solution.

It would be very interesting to associate your addon
with magpie or simplepie (using feeds rss ).Please see this rss addon :http://www.pixelpost.org/v1/index.php?x=downloads&details=192
That could give a page like this one:http://barcelona.photobloggers.org/fotoblogueando/

and read the feeds of different photoblog engine.
