Masthead photo ideas
For some time, I've wanted to set up my own weblog in such a way
that it would have a set of "masthead photos" that would rotate
throughout the year, with possible constraints -- some holiday-specific,
to be run for N days preceding, say, valentines, Christmas,
Thanksgiving, etc; some simply related to the season; and some
just nice pictures.
Some sources:
- black bg with Xmas-lit boats
- Anticip___ation
- Somehow, the China Cove lit-up arch gotta be there
- stuffed puppies
- Ben's photo of trail tread from a segment of the John Muir Trail
For awhile, I've had some mock-ups of some of these on one of
the URLs that lead to my home Mac, when it's awake, but those
addresses appear to be broken at the moment.
[Edit: my dynamic IP address changed, and I didn't notice, and
I don't have any automatic update for it set up. So these banner
shot test designs (minus Anticip___ation, but plus Lake 10,199 even
though it's not my photo) are at http://zia.mine.nu for now,
whenever my Mac is up and running.]
Unfortunately, it appears that some folks at Google had
a similar idea (themes for their personalized homepages),
so once I get mine deployed, it'll look just a bit less
original. Oh, well -- at least they'll mostly be my own
photos.
