Important Note : New Features On Aylwin’s Photography Online Portfolio
Greetings viewers !
I am pleased to announce two new features being in-corporated into Aylwin’s Photography online portfolio.
1. A new Cover Page has been done up for easy viewing of my collection of pictures.
As time went by after starting this portfolio of mine under the WordPress software, there were some feedback regarding the viewing of the various categories of pictures. Some would like to only view the scenery collections while some maybe portraits and so on… And in order to view them, most of the time viewers are required to scroll through others categories (and pages of older entries) of pictures as well (which can be a turn off sometimes due to the searching and scrolling time wasted). Well, I would like to offer my sincere apologies for that and have been brainstorming of a way to make things easier for you viewers.
About two weeks ago, I was dabbling with some settings in the WordPress software and the categories function as well… and found a “break-through” ! Hahaha… Maybe some of you would have already known about this, but it was a first for me. So there and then I began on building up a Cover Page for my online portfolio.
Now I am proud to present you with a new Cover Page for Aylwin’s Photography at www.mysacredhaven.com ! For those of you who are regulars to my portfolio, you would have noticed that you normally would type in this URL address http://aylwin.mysacredhaven.com (sub-domain) and not http://www.mysacredhaven.com (domain) to access this portfolio. The reason being that I have other stuff on the main domain name itself. Now, I have solely dedicated the whole domain to my online portfolio.
Therefore… Do remember to bookmark the new Cover Page at www.mysacredhaven.com if you have not done so !
Please remember to leave this page open so that you can view a different category as and when you like. Each time you select a category, a new window will be opened for your viewing.
*Ps. Do note that the “Home” button on the top of the navigation menu does not bring you to the Cover Page. I am still currently working on that “bug” !

2. A multi-track Music Player has been installed on the Cover Page as well.
Music pieces were carefully selected to suit your viewing experience.
Currently there are twelve songs in the player for starters… but even then, I believe these twelve songs should last for your entire viewing session. As this player is on the Cover Page that will always be opened until you finished viewing various categories… the songs will be played continuously and looped. If at any point of time you wish to stop the player, please do so on the Cover Page. As seen from the above picture, the player is located at the bottom of the Cover Page.
A question you might ask after viewing the tracks in the player… why all named as “Mystery Songs” ? Well… I have a reason for doing that intentionally. It will be revealed in due course !
Please feel free to leave the Cover Page opened while you surf the net or check you email as you can still enjoy the music.
Alright ! That’s all the updates for now… Take care and cheers !
