Anyone know if there's a WP 3.2.1 Widget that covers rotating Pixelpost images?

I don't know of any specifically but that does not mean its not out there.

Have you checked the numerous wordpress plugin download pages scattered all over the internet? Maybe a google search would yield some results.

Hiyas, yep, I have and so far I haven't found a Pixel Post Widget yet, with WP embracing Widgets now I get the feeling there will be one soon...

Joey, you and I are basically looking for the same thing.

I would have figured with pixel post being wide reaching as it is someone would have gotten around to it by now, but, with WP Widget being relatively new and WP 2.3.1 just came out it looks like from the lack of responses and the lack of responses on WP Boards, no one has gotten there yet.

Hope someone will code one soon and made both of us happy. :)

Found one.

Here (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/photo-sidebar-widget/).

Widget Post with comments (http://www.district30.net/smugmug-photo-sidebar).

Adjust line 199:

item["generator"]=="Blogger" or $item["generator"]=="pixelpost")

The thumbnails may be a bit blurry at first but adjusting them on your photo blog to 150px should make it aok.

If all you wanted was a RSS feed reader why didn't you say so?

There are plenty of widgets that will read PixelPost's RSS feeds and display them on your site. In fact there was a feature added in wordpress 1.6 to only display thumbnails in the RSS feed. This was added in part because I had requested it to make it easier to display my most recent photos as a sidebar widget.

Check my blog at www.dakwegmo.com to see it in action.
