My own template for Apple Aperture

Fri, 23 Feb 2007 21:39:51 GMT

Numerous posts on Apple's Aperture support forum talk about ideas and ways how to customize Aperture's web templates. The templates that ship with Aperture are quite simple and you can't change much via the UI. Besides of the comments on the forum I found a blog post describing in a bit more detail what you can do.

Basically you have to open Aperture's application package, find the templates directory and there you can modify existing templates or add your own. The biggest question that remains is whether the changes will survive updates of Aperture in the future.

After some experimentation I created my own template with custom elements that mimic the design of this blog. You can see the result on my photography page.

Where the wealthy Panamanians spend major holidays

As I reported during major holidays Panama City gets deserted. But where do all the people go? I've posted some pictures from a short trip we did almost a year ago. The page is called Peeking through the gates at beach homes and let's you get an impression of the kind of retreat wealthy Panamanian families go to on those major holidays when they flee the city.

Pictures from Veracruz beach on an Aperture web journal

Tue, 20 Feb 2007 00:31:39 GMT

Now that my MacBook Pro has no memory problems anymore I played a bit more with Aperture's web journal feature, installed an Apache httpd on the virtual machine this blog runs on and posted some pictures of Veracruz Beach. This beach is just 30 minutes away from Panama City. Cross the Bridge of the Americas, do a right and follow the road until you get to the beach with the bohios. That simple.
