So, you know how I said I had a load of things in the pipeline?

Here’s one of them: The new site for Barbara Carlotti

It is yaspbt (Yet-Another-Site-Powered-By-Textpattern) – I love how much of the site is powered by Textpattern without even having to do anything complicated (just using the powerful sections feature). The only plugin being used is upm_image to allow the integration with Lightbox for the photo galleries.

I think the best thing – if I do say so myself – about the site is it’s fluidity – try resizing your browser! This is what I mean when I talk about using javascript to help create a fluid width site. If you take a look at the source (the scaling is done in the js/main.js file) you’ll see that the code dynamically loads in higher res versions of the main image as you scale it up, so the image remains nice and sharp no matter what the size.
