Image Gallery Rampage

July 5, 2005 By Glenn Turner

Longtime readers of this site know that the first web-based endeavor of ours was that of 'drunksaling', the practice of garage saling for videogames while imbibing of one thing or another (and we have certain members of the esteemable Red vs. Blue to thank for this practice!). If we were a bit more mature, we might think about even changing the name, since normally we don't have time for a tasty beverage until the sales have been completed.

Said readers may also know that we take loads of pictures of these events, and they may even be aware of the articles that house such articles.

Newer readers may be aware of our fancy-schmancy image gallery system that we use for such fine pieces as Mr. LeFeuvre's recent San Andreas Grand Tour Outtakes and my little tour of the Game On exhibit. Prior to this weekend, the two were mutually exclusive but thanks to some code tweaking and an hour or two of cussing, you can peruse the entire Drunksaling image back-catalogue.

Some of you may say 'but why would I care? I've already read these articles!' And I'd say you have a lot of free time to give me lip, but I forgive you for not seeing the whole picture. For one, it's more fun! But two, we can (and already have) used these to include pictures excised from the articles. In fact, there's a picture of my cat buried in there someway! And there are a bunch from the last few weeks that were dropped because ... well, they were long enough.

Hm, that sounded a lot more important in my head.

Oh well, enjoy. Oh, and also enjoy the friendly urls (as opposed to the old ugly mess of formdata), they were hand-crafted from fine .htaccess files.

P.S. This was really just an elaborate excuse to make it easier for me to find an drunksaling icon so the front-page wouldn't be laden with generic 'feature' icons. Shh, don't tell anyone - it's our little secret.
