The latest product from TemplateMonster is some new CMS with a stylish flash powered photo gallery front end. While the product is developed for the “non professional” webmaster are the CMS features really advanced. The gallery script looks a little like the bigger PHP photo galleries but there is need no for a database and the CMS has some nice features like:

• automatic thumbnail generation (loads much faster than resizing a photo using Flash’s jpg object)
• a PHP powered file upload
• an unlimited number of categories and photos for each category (only the load time is the limit)
• easy to modify descriptions for photo’s and categories
• The ability to modify all information and configuration via the text editor (if PHP is not available on the websites host)

One of the latest additions to the finalwebsites.com network is phpGround.com a PHP only script archive. A Script owner can submit his script information to promote a project like on hotscripts.com or php.resourceindex.com.

The script archive provides direct (SEO friendly) links to the scripts homepage, the download page and a demo page (if available). Each project has its own detail page where people can rate the script or application. Whats next? Of course the archive has to grow a little bit first, for the future its planned to expand this site with other PHP related categories like PHP resource links and to offer useful PHP code snippets.

IconBuffet was already since a longer time a place to get professional Icons for a small price and also to get “free deliverys”. Today I noticed that this Icon web shop is mutated into a social community with the ability to trade Icons, and to share information / weblogs.

The best thing is the membership (also the traded Icons) is free: Just join and get 10 free tokens (once a month?) which are good for ~3 professional Icon sets. If you deliver Icons you got before from friends to other friends you earn some “Stamps”. Read the rest of this entry »
