The infamous photophart.com returns
My conversion from CE3 to CE4 is pretty much finished. The look and feel are similar to the old site with a couple of
new and wonderful things you can't see on the surface. My favorite new feature is, of course, the ability to alter the home page gallery from publisher. No need to re-upload a whole new site to change the photos. Currently I have five groups of photos that I swap in and out of the home page just to brighten up the look from time to time.
Phplugins remains a major aspect of the site. I use it for universal navigation and to load or not load
my music players depending on the gallery (that part is done with a different version of phplugins in
each of the four or five templates that publisher uses).
For no particular reason other than a whim, my blog is setup as a subdomain and you'll notice the navigation menu there changes a bit though color scheme and feel of the blog vs. the site are very similar (as they should be! Right?).
Matt and crew have done an amazing job of crafting the different TTG modules that fit together like fine machine parts.
For this site I have used TTG pages, autoindex, gallery, stage, theme for Wordpress, cart, publisher, and,
of course, the new and powerful TTG-BE. Rod's insight and suggestions have been invaluable, Daniel's code suggestions
were also dead on. Thanks also to the support community at TTG where lots of helpful stuff was gleaned.
I'm still a bit blown away by Ben's cart every time I see it work.
So, you're thinking: "Doesn't this guy have anything bad to say? Surely it can't all be great?"
I don't, and it is. Either url will take you to the other.

Re: The infamous photophart.com returns
Mark.... can you list the modules that you bought to create your site?
I am after the functionality that you have in your site, and I would like to see a list of things that I would need to purchase to have the same functionality so that I dont go buying things I dont actually need.
Thanks :-)

And, for what it's worth, I'll be adding the newest version of Client Response Gallery just as soon as it comes off the presses. Not for this site but for another I'm working on.
