Yesterday I have extended the plugin with adjustable size of the thumbnails (width & height) and padding (space between thumbnails). Now looking into a checkbox wich will force the widget to use defined set of default values so the plugin will continue to work when only the mobypicture username is filled in. I expect to upload version 1.1 by the end of this week.
Demo new code:
< ?php mobypic_pics($username = chillez73, $num = 6, $width = 70, $height = 100, $padding = 3, $linked = true); ?>
More as a reminder to my own self rather than something to share with whomever visits this blogs 
. There a some things I wish to change to my website, these are (in no particular order):
Of course a site also needs some interesting content but this is of lesser importance to me. I am just playing around with WordPress and trying to build a site with some nice features.
Something you would like to see changed or added to this site? Just leave a comment with your tips or ideas, your feedback is appreciated!
With the My Mobypicture plugin installed you can also include a photostream in a post or on a page. It does require the ability to run php code in you post though.
Below code shows the last 8 pics from Mobypicture CEO Mathys van Abbe:
“< ?php mobypic_pics($username = ‘mathys‘, $num = ‘6‘, $linked = ‘true‘); ?>”
Today I received the approval from WordPress to upload my Mobypicture widget to the WP Plugin Directory. Learned some Subversion stuff along the way as well. I had to ’svn’ and ‘check out’ my empty version from the repository and then ‘check in’ my source files (php file, readme.txt and screenshots) back into the repository. It took a couple of minutes to show up on the WP Plugin page but eventually it showed up, Yes! I would love to receive your feedback in the comments. Don’t forget to rate the plugin when you download it from WP.

Update @23:43: Found some bad grammar in the readme.txt, updated the file. Mobypicture & Mathys tweeted go-live to their followers on Twitter – nice!
Today I have submitted a request to have my Mobypicture plugin / widget hosted by WordPress. The WP Plugin Developer Center page contains clear instructions to guide you through the process. I wonder how long the approval will take, to quote WordPress.org: “Within some vaguely defined amount of time, some one will approve your request.” Will keep you updated!
