I’ve been looking for a way to display a gallery or slideshow of images that I’ve taken over the years here on my site and unfortunately BlogEngine.net doesn’t have one built in (yet). I started doing some research and found a really cool slideshow created by Vertigo and powered by Microsoft Silverlight, but getting it to work with BlogEngine.net seemed a little over my head as far as programming in .NET is concerned. Fortunately, Bill Beckelman created an extension for BlogEngine.net that allows you to publish the slideshow in a post, and someone posted on Bill’s blog on how the code could be modified so that the extension would work on a page instead of a post.
So that’s how my Slideshow came about. It’s just some pictures of my brother’s wedding and two trips to Bristol Motor Speedway for the NASCAR races. I’ll be adding more albums to it in the future as I figure out which pictures I want to post. The link is on the right under the Pages section, or you can just click here.
Thanks for taking a look!
