Ok, so a combination of crazy things happened way too close together, and Dreamhost ended up having to disable the Mysql account for WordPress. Firstly, I was trying out whoisi.com and added several friends and family, along with myself. I then reported a bug to the author, who then happened to mention it on his blog, which happens to be syndicated on Planet Gnome. In the middle of all this, I was finishing up migrating that last of my photos from Gallery to WordPress. It just so happened that yesterday, I finished the last in a series of 10 ‘gallery’ posts that included around 700 photos of my family history. I then proceeded to make a final post that included links to all 10 of those galleries.
So, a word to the wise: Don’t write a post that links to ten other posts which include over seven hundred photos the day after you get mentioned on Planet Gnome.
As before, you can get to the Gallery via the link at the top of the page, and shortly, I’ll have the random image block back on the sidebar too.
