5 New Wordpress Plugins

February 9

I’ve recently been asked to do a re-design of a website that I originally created over 2 years ago in basic HTML & CSS. One of the main things that I had to think about was how I was going to build it? Should I re-design is as HTML & CSS again or install a CMS, after some discussions with the client, a CMS was definitely something that had to be done.

I of course chose Wordpress as the CMS of choice for this project. Being relatively new to Wordpress, this project was going to be one of the bigger sites I’ve done. With bigger things comes better ways of getting the job done and one way to save time is by getting the right plugin for the job.

This was obvious in a lot of the pictures that were given to me to post up, normally it wouldn’t be an issue but because I wanted to use one of the pictures as a main blog shot, it just didn’t look right. So here is my solution to this problem!
