Wed, 11 Aug 2010 11:00:04 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 Renewed Flickr account today http://www.retrocamera.net/renewed-flickr-account-today.html http://www.retrocamera.net/renewed-flickr-account-today.html#comments Sun, 01 Aug 2010 18:41:28 +0000 Mattias http://www.retrocamera.net/?p=949 I renewed my Flickr account today to Pro. I use Flickr and Ipernity, so I use double webservice image storage/communities. I like Ipernity where also are a translator to my language, but many of my old images are linked from my websites to Flickr since I have used their pro-account for a few years. A later image is this leaf with drops, photographed with the lens Asahi Super-Takumar 85mm/1.9 on my Canon.

It is the random post box plugin, which I made and submitted to WordPress. It loads a new random post every X seconds with fading effects. The effects and timing and postselection is possible to control with the WordPress Options-page.

I’ve had this idea to do something with that domain and since I work a lot with WordPress and WordPress MU (like the ones used for Retrocamera and WordPress.com) at the moment. Why not start a blogservice.

It would of course be limited both in number of blogs and space, but I think it’s an interesting option for those who can feel a connection with the domain name. So step number 1: is there any interest in such a service?

And when one get leave in the morning and get home at night it’s dark outside, normal here in Sweden in the winter but hard to photograph then ;) I’ll be back soon with some reviews of old lenses though (the Yashica ML 35mm/2.8 and Super-Takumar 85mm/1.9 awaits)…

Well, even when I’m not writing there are about 150 unique visitors every day – that says something about the interest for this subject of old photography equipment and the art created with it. Inspiring!

Do you have ideas on what could be nice to have on the site? Please contact me with ideas I can incorporate in the new design.

Great! :) It even went far enogh for me to change avatar and name on flickr! *phew*
