NextGEN Gallery for iPhone/iPod Touch

I’m very impressed about the new iPhone Safari Browser. It’s the first mobile web browser which render all pages and show them in a good way (No, I didn’t get money from Apple). For my own purpose I would like to show my family galleries from my web page.  It’s ok with the standard page design, but a iPhone native web page would be even better.

So I get the iUI from Joe Hewitt (Creator of Firebug) and programmed (based on the WordPress Mobile Edition by Alex King) a little plugin to show the galleries in a iPhone native design. Really not very famous, but usefull for me.

Here are some screenshots (With Safari, I didn’t Jailbreak my iPod for now) :

   

You can see a live demonstration when you visit nextgen.boelinger.com with your iPhone/iPod.

Mhhh, Is anybody interested in this addon ? (if there is enough feedback I will consider to publish this little modification…)

New WordPress 2.4 Admin Style on the way

It’s maybe a little bit early, but WordPress 2.4 will contain a new backend style. Here a very first (very very rough and not finished !!!) screenshot of the user setting page.

What does this means for my plugins especially NextGEN Gallery ? I need to change the inner style because it fit’s only to the current design and therefore I will stop supporting WordPress 2.1 – 2.2 with Version 0.8x. In the next days I will release a small bugfix for Safari for the actual V7.X branch, but this will be the last release for this branch. A backend redesign for WordPress is many times requested, now a lot of plugins will not look in a good way, we will see how Matt & Co will solve this issue…
