Hi,
I’m using the Travelogue theme on my blog and like it a great deal. But I’m having great difficulties with the random photos in the header. Looking at the instructions, I’m afraid I’m none the wiser. To begin with: where do I find the folder called “randimages”?

I’ve uploaded some photos to randimages folder but they won’t show up. I tried the script edit you suggested to Sandra but that didn’t work. Other suggestions?

Date is correct now — used to say the 9th, now says the 6th. Didn’t do anything to change it — very strange.

Terrific! That fixed it. The dates are incorrect on my posts, though. How do I fix that? The date shows up correctly on the settings page. Weird.

Sandra, change line 19 of header.php to be rotatorm.php instead of rotator.php. I'm not sure why, but some people have troubles with the original rotator script, but I tried the second script (rotatorm.php) on your server, and it pulled up the images just fine. Let me know how it goes.

Hi, Joshua. Love your theme. I resized some photos and put them in the randimages folder. They showed up for a short time, but now they don’t. Can you tell me what might be wrong?

Melissa, glad you like the look! You will need to modify (preferably) the Photoshop file, or edit polaroid1.jpg and header1_img.jpg (much more difficult). Or perhaps you are talking about getting an actual picture in the polaroid? If so, make sure you put your resized images in the randimages folder of the theme. If that is not working, send me a link so that I can troubleshoot.

Hi Joshua,

I am new to this blog and just in the developing stages. I really like the feel of your template which is why I downloaded…especially because of the rotating pictures. But I would like to change the background brown picture in the header to one of my own pictures; but I can’t figure out how to do it. I’ve tried resizing but that didn’t work either. Can you help me? Keep in mind I am a newbie and detailed instructions would be very much appreciated! Thank you,
Melissa

It will tell you to download it.

Hope that helps!

Yes, the travelogue_psds.zip is damaged (it is only 667.648 bytes). Can you replace it and send me a notice please? Thanks!

I was unable to extract the .zip file that contains the psd files. I downloaded the .zip from the link on your site.

Hi!
I really like this skin, I used it when my friend asked me to make a blog for him. (http://onepointzero.fw.hu) My only problem with the skin is that it misses the “Previous entries” link to previous pages of blogs. Why is that?
Anyway, thanks for the skin – great idea!

All these manual steps drove me nuts when I wanted a slew of polaroid images for my random selector. That is why I split out the polaroid frame and wrote a Python script to take 205x195 JPEGs and wrap them in the polaroid frame. The post has a link to the script. With current versions of PHP with GD it would be easy to do this in PHP but my ISP didn't have a version of GD that supported PNG alpha channels correctly then. They since upgraded.

Josh,
Thanks for the Travelogue theme. I’ve used a modified version for our upcoming trip to Paris. It’s located at http://www.dbtally.com/blog
