First naive implementation of viewing the 'resized' version of the images. Depends on a specific CSS (and a hack based on my current photo galleries where I know the thumbnail and 'resized' URLs on forehand).

I'm working on a "photo gallery" plugin for Pyblosxom. The first attempts are already functional and produce reasonable galleries.

The main idea is to regard one set of photos as one blog entry. There're other gallery-like and photo related plugins available, but they seem to regard one picture as one entry. Or somehow the implementation is not exactly what I envisioned.

Further more, I wanted to display all thumbnails only if the entry is rendered at its 'permanent' URL. In the other cases, e.g. whenever there's a list of entries shown, only a few thumbnails are displayed.

Todo items include: support for resized URL and fullsize URL for the images, somehow extracting EXIF metadata from the images and a slideshow feature.

There's a vague ambition to build something that's useful for other too. We'll see about that :-)
