Well said estjohn!
You started your list –
“My must have plugins include:”
YOUR Must have… I appriciate your suggestions, and have applied some of your suggestions to my site. But just like you said, what is must have for you, is not must have for others.
2 of MY must haves (bring it on Stahn) are because I use Flickr to host my images on the web.
I love using Flickr because it is free (pro service is a great value too) and make for seemless intergration with my photos, and my blog, without worrying about bandwith and storage.
Flickr Post Bar – This plugin will retrieve your Flickr photos and allow you to easily add your photos to your posts, via a click-and-add display directly below your post editor. I couldn’t do my site as easily without it.
FAlbum – A plugin for displaying your Flickr photosets and photos in a gallery format on your WordPress site. An amazing, no hassle gallery/photo album. You can check it out on our site: Rob and Kirstie Doar’s Homepage
