In case anyone was concerned, PhotoSmash appears to functioning completely normally under WordPress 2.9. I’m running 2.9 on this site, and the demo galleries are working fine.
I’m making some enhancements to the photo tagging that is currently available in PhotoSmash that will be coming out in a week or so. The test blog I’m using for that development is running WordPress 2.9 as well.
I think 2.9 will be a huge benefit to all of you who are using the Add to WP Media option. This is going to let you do some editing of your images using the new image editor in the WordPress Media gallery admin pages. This includes rotating images, resizing thumbnails, and grabbing different crop areas for thumbs.
Very, very useful update to WordPress! A hearty “THANK YOU!” to the WP core Team.
And while I’m at it, thanks to all of my PhotoSmash users for sticking with me through this year! PhotoSmash went live back in February of this year (I think…). It’s come a long way, and the user community has been very helpful in rooting out the problems and pointing the way toward the features that make PhotoSmash a unique and hopefully useful piece of the WordPress community.
Cheers to all, and Merry Christmas!
Byron
