As a precursor to getting my photos organized and my trip journal of our Ireland trip put on my blog, I thought I'd redesign the thing and try and be a bit more active with it. Finally finished up last night. Basic theme and layout not much different from my previous one, but all up to date with the newest Wordpress, and plenty of add-ons from GraphPaperPress, who make some really great themes and have great support.
Anyhow, just thought I'd share in case anyone wants to check it out.

BTW - if anyone is interested in how the jquery accordions work on the photo page and in the posts, let me know. My first time doing that and had some issues, but very easy to implement. Sadly there are by any WP content-based accordion widgets, so I figured this out from a tutorial. Super easy to add.
