When I began with My Photoblog.. little did i realize the “features” I will be needing to make my Photoblog stand out and not be a regular blog with lots of pictures..Thanks to priya..I was able to over ride blogger’s default behavior of opening the pictures (actual size) ..in new window.. by using the Lightbox code.
But..I was not sure how many would return to my Photoblog as new posts were made only when I could find some really interesting pics ..(read irregular updates). So I was looking for some kind of application that would display the thumbnail image preview of my Photoblog posts.. so that I can integrate it as a widget in other blogs.( just as feedburner’s buzz boost will display the post title ..Post titles of my other blogs as shown in the Left-side-Bar).
Feedburner’s feed gave me the option of displaying either the entire post ( large pic + description) or display only the post title… Tell me.. what good is a photo feed (ie.. feed of a Photoblog) if it cannot show the preview of the image.. Interacting at the feedburner’s forum left me no wiser. Aimlessly googling one day I landed on a site called widgetbox.com, and I am glad I landed there.. Now I have a widget in my sidebar that displayes the image preview of the pictures when I make a post at my Photoblog
