Twitter Wordpress Microblog Site

Jim Atwood — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 13:13:01 +0000

This is one of my favorite websites and one that I use frequently to check on my twitter updates and to search for other topics. I am still working on the backend with additional tweaks and customizations, but so far it’s coming along nicely. The theme I used is called Tweem which uses a Juitter Jquery script as the foundation for the theme. I then added single posts, custom widgets, and some additional functions in the backend to get the site to do more of what I want. There are a ton of changes here and if I get a chance I’ll list them shortly. As with all my sites, I usually start with a commercial theme and then customize everything to achieve my desired look and functionality.

Notable Themes, Plugins, and Customizations used on for this project.
Tweem Theme
Juitter Jquery Code
Addiitonal Search Tabs Added
Added Single Posts
Custom Twitter Seach Box

Jim Atwood Mobile Website

Jim Atwood — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 13:06:28 +0000

I just finished putting together my new Jim Atwood Mobile Website. It took me a while to figure out what approach I was going to take with the theme and mobile plugins. So far I think the site is working out pretty well. http://jimatwood.mobi

The website is using Wordpress 2.8.3 as of this writing and the following plugins.

Access Keys
Google XML Sitemaps
WordPress Mobile Pack
XHTML and Mobile YouTube

I am also looking into the Mobify Wordpress Plugin, but so far I like the Wordpress Mobile Pack the best because it is much easier and free for all my sites without any limitations.

Jim Atwood News Nikon DSLR Site

Jim Atwood — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 12:56:21 +0000

A long time ago I started a website about photography that I did using the Nikon DSLR D200. Since then, the D300 and D700 have been released, but the Nikon D200 still remains a trusty backup camera for me. This week I finally go around to updating the website with a fresh new look and I’ll definitely be adding more videos and photos as well in the coming days.

Digital Art Photography Japan

Jim Atwood — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 13:29:02 +0000

One of the things I enjoy about photography and often get asked to do with clients is to post process photos in Photoshop. This gives a sort of Digital Art Photography look which is quite popular with many forms of media. This slideshow is a collection of images taken in Japan by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net.

Ropography Japan on 12Seconds TV

Jim Atwood — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 09:09:36 +0000

On my previous video http://12seconds.tv/channel/jimatwood/209815, I used transitions from frame to frame. Due to the short time frame, this caused the quality of the video to be reduced slightly. On “Ropography japan”, my second video I elected to remove the transitions except for the last frame. I think with photos that have more detail, this retains the quality for the most part. Again the video was rendered Youtube style in HD in 16:9 (Widescreen). On a test run I used 4:3 (TV) and it came out like total crap. The 16:9 looks much better but obviously there could be other settings involved that I am missing. Note that I’m on a PC. Photos by Jim Atwood Photography at http://www.jimatwood.net

Jim Atwood TV New Site

Jim Atwood — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 13:49:55 +0000

Recently I developed my JimAtwood.TV website and used a custom theme from Press75 called VodPod. The theme was a challenge to customize because the javascript was a bit finicky. Not all plugins work with this site and the FancyBox JQuery script doesn’t work with IE8. That is more of a problem with IE8 I feel, so it’s best to use any other browser such as Firefox 3.5 to view the site at it’s best. The theme is great and it was fun customizing it. You can check out the site at http://www.jimatwood.tv.
