Content display

The Galerie module provides (hopefuly) easy to use and clean galleries based on an API/submodules model.

galerie itself provides a "galerie" node type and manages the display of galleries (classic thumbnails and large images view, and slideshow mode) while submodules retrieve content from different sources: local files, Flickr or Tumblr for now.

This module uses the @font-face feature of CSS to display texts using your favorite fonts. By doing this, you allow users to view texts in fonts not available on their computers. Those fonts are instead stored on the server. In Drupal, there are a few methods for doing this. Most (all ?) rely on javascripts or flash to generate flash objects or images representing the text. This module does not depend on either; so there are no flash objects, no images, just regular texts rendered beautifully in your favorite fonts.

Installation

To install, visit admin/settings/dfont. Basically, you have to upload fonts to Drupal's "files" directory and turn on the dfont filter.

Note: You have to provide *both* .ttf and .eot files (different extensions but having the same name) for each TrueType font so the text can be viewed across multiple browsers.

Usage

To use, you must first enable the Dynamic Font Filter (admin/settings/filters). You can use the filter in a number of ways. For examples:

   + [dfont=GentR102|16pt] text to be rendered nicely. [/dfont]
   + [dfont=df2|16pt] text to be rendered nicely. [/dfont]
   + [dfont=df2|120%] text to be rendered nicely. [/dfont]

Test Content Block is a tool for people tasked with the onerous chore of theming Drupal sites. When theming, you often have to run back and forth between node templates.

Implementing Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8 Web Slices (available for Firefox as a plugin) for Drupal.

I really don't have much time for this project, and the SwiftRiver project is actively developed, and is hard to keep up with it. Maintainers wanted.

This module (will) provides integration between Drupal and SwiftRiver. "SwiftRiver is a free and open source software platform that uses a combination of algorithms and crowdsourced interaction to validate and filter news. It is an open source effort by many contributing people and organizations including Meedan, Appfrica, GeoCommons and Ushahidi."

Features

What this module will do (see status below).

• Integration with SULSa (Swift User Location Services API), a IP geocoding service.
• Integration with SiLCC (Swift Language Computation Component), an automated keyword extractor.

Status

This module is brand new and so is SwiftRiver, so this module has yet to do anything. At the moment, it is just a basic stub of functions and structure and will get filled in as I have time and SwiftRiver grows.
