Photos Section Relaunches

It’ll be a light blog posting schedule this week, with several of the RazorBloggers taking off for a little R&R.  But just to tide you over…

We said last month that we were working on some new site features.  Well, today we’re debuting the first one…the new and improved RazorBloggers Network Photos section.

Over the past year, we’ve archived over 1,000 high quality photos of Razorback sports.  But since it launched last August, the Photos section of this site has only contained pictures taken by yours truly.  And while I’m still proud of my stuff, there have been many other great photos featured here — taken by the real pros — that also deserve to be prominently displayed.  The new RBN Photos section is your resource now for those, too.

Now you can easily find a picture of your favorite player…or your not so favorite coach.  We’ve even got a photo page dedicated to “Humanity Advanced,” as Darren McFadden has come to be known in the sports blogosphere.

And since we’ve seen that there’s…uh…a particular subset of my photos that are a little more…uh…’popular’ than the others, there’s a new Razorback Spirit Squads photo page as well.  ;-)

Finally, many of the photo pages now display using a new Flash-based image viewer that’s fast and easy to use.  The viewer will display thumbnails of all photos and then allow you to quickly choose the picture you’d like to enlarge.  And as the games are played and photos are taken this season, the RBN photo pages will be automatically updated with the latest pictures.  That’s pretty cool if you ask us.

We’ve still got a couple more ‘tricks’ up our sleeve before the offseason ends.  Until then, enjoy the new photos section and let us know what you think.

GO HOGS!

    That is a great addition to the already quality razorback blog. Several good pictures and I love the flash.
