Hey guys,

For my new domain I'm looking for a snazzy, preferably free photoblog of sorts which will allow me to:

1) Feed my twitter directly into it, so if I post on twitter it also posts on the website

2) Allow linkable galleries in a sidebar

3) Be fully compatible with mobile browsers...so no flash! :p

4) Display my images in quite a large format on a rotating gallery

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm quite a dab-hand with these new fandangoed compootah thingies so if it takes some technical know-how to figure it out then I'm always up for a challenge :)

Thanks in advanced,
Jake
 
I've always been useless at building my own sites...but can hack an existing one to bits.

Does that make sense? :p
 
Nice, good to hear the twitter integration will be easy.

I found photograti after some gewgling last night, but I'd rather not pay...hmmm, shall have to do some proper digging at lunch time.

Stop being a cheap skate and get a decent/premium wordpress theme. It will save you time in the longrun and will likely function/look better anyway.

Someone wake up on the wrong side this morning? :p

If I get my arse in gear and do the research properly then it shouldn't cost me anything, there is SO much free content on the net there is no way I can't get what I want (which is pretty simple as far as website requirements go) for free :)

But anyway, that's for another conversation. :)
 
$200 is a lot of money considering I am aiming for something simple :)

Still, the suggestion is appreciated all the same :)

Mmmm now this is more like it :) I would pay $9!!!

Liking this a lot. I need to see what it would be like to integrate my twitter feed into it before making the decision however. IE if I tweet will it just pull it through automatically...and if people subscribe can I set it so they don't get all the crap I tweet and just actual Blog posts etc? :)

Will fire off an email to the support guys of the site and see what they say. They may be able to cater for me specifically if I pay some coin :)

Agreed, however...this isn't for generating business. I'm slowly moving away from that side of things of photography and switching to purely enjoyment and 'phologging/photoblogging' :)
