So, over the last week and last night I have been working on a script to automagically generate galleries, not that that is finished I have a brand new gallery up and running.
I have also created a breadcrumb script, in the status bar of the window you should see a new breadcrumb trail
The following browsers are supported 100%:
- Camino 2.0.3
- Firefox 3.5.8
- Opera 10.10
- Safari 4.0.5
- Chrome 5.0.375.55
- Lynx 2.8.7rel.1 (Yes, that’s right, it works very well in a text browser too!)
Please send me any feedback on the new design

Faye and some others from the Aberystwyth university are putting on an exhibition in London between 2nd April and 16th April. The exhibition is taking place in the Proud Central Gallery (32 John Adam Street – WC2N 6BP), just off the Strand and literally a minutes walk from Charing Cross.
The exhibition is the display of 19 artists work, all in the medium of photography. It’s well worth a visit, especially as it’s FREE to get in! Support the artists by buying a catalogue (a bargain at £4) and if you see a piece of work you like, please buy it!
