Gallery Update: French Toast

: Two pieces of french toast

Another gallery update, as well as a few fairly substantial changes to how the site operates. The food page is now more of a gallery hub. That may change in the future, but for now this is how things are going to be.

I actually like the way that the galleries are working. I have to rework the coding for the actual food page a bit though. Right now it’s just basic tables. A click on the picture will take you to a nice thumbnail gallery of the food as well as the recipe used to create it. Feel free to use and abuse that. If you click on any of the thumbnail pictures a sort of slideshow will pop up. If you click away it will disappear.

For now the only foods in the gallery are the red beans and rice, french toast and focaccia bread pizza. The actual focaccia bread gallery page (and recipe) aren’t quite finished yet. You can expect that to be done by the end of the week, if not sooner.

Please do let me know what you think of how I have things set up. Just because I like it doesn’t make it any good. If the site is hard to navigate or doesn’t display properly on one particular browser, then I have not done my job well enough. For the record, I have tested the site in firefox and seen it in Safari and IE. The colors appear to be off in Safari and the font sizes in IE. Otherwise I have not come across any issues yet.
