Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #7
This was originally my #7 photo:
now it is:
which used to be #4
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #8
When I compiled the Top 200 feature, this was the #8 most viewed photo:
and now it’s:
which used to be #5
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #9
The #9 photo was:
and now it is:
which used to be #7
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #10
Back when I compiled the Top 200 Photos feature, this was #10:
and now it’s:
which was not in the top 20 before, so it has really gained a lot of views. That comes from the fact that it’s on Pixel-Peer as an example of that lens’ abilities.
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #11
The original #11 photo was:
now it’s, which has fallen from #8:
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #12
Originally, my #12 photo was:
and now it’s:
which was originally #9. This photo, which was once my most viewed photo continues its slow descent.
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #13
When I compiled the photos for the Top 200 Photos feature, this was the #13 photo:
and now the #13 photo is:
which has fallen from #11.
Developing my first plasmoid part 3
I did it! I have created my first ever useful GUI program. After all these years of thinking that all the useful GUIs had already been invented - I found an itch to scratch. And here’s how the final, working version looks:
[caption id=“attachment_5357” align=“aligncenter” width=“310” caption=“flickr views plasmoid completed!”] 
[/caption]
And so there it is! I was actually surprised that this last little bit of the program wasn’t as hard to finish up as I thought it would be. So, as currently implemented, when the plasmoid loads up it makes the data engine fill itself. Once that’s complete you can click on the buttons along the top to load up all the photos from that group that are ready to be promoted to the next group. Clicking on a particular photo loads up the small thumbnail. View on flickr allows you to jump to the website in case you want or need to do that. Originally I implemented it so that if the next part was hard, I’d at least have the functionality of the command line version of this software. Then came the new part that happens to be easier in a GUI than on the commandline. You can add the photo to the next group and remove it from the current one. The reason I did it that way was so that if the photo couldn’t be added to the next group, it wouldn’t be removed from the current one. I tested it first with a fake group and then the real thing and it works fine. Before I post the code for my data engine and plasmoid, I have some cleaning up to do. I also need to add in a bit more functionality for robustness. After that, if I’m going to make it so that anyone can use it (and post it on kde-look.org), I will need to do some extra work. So that’s version 0.1. For version 0.2 here’s what I’d have on my TODO list:
Approximately a Year Later: Top 200 Photos #14
The original #15 photo was:
and now it’s:
which has fallen from #10. It may be one of the most dramatic changes in the lineup.
