FlippingBook plugin for WordPress

flippingbook

While putting together the portfolio section of this site, I’ve been digging into WordPress plugins that could help me create a nice display of some of my previous work.

I dig this one. FlippingBook WordPress Gallery Plugin creates a gallery in a book style. The corners of the pages curl to clue you in that you can turn the pages, and make nifty swooshing sounds when you do. The finished presentation is very sharp.

Like most WordPress plugins, this one is fairly easy to install and implement. I found it to be a little bit buggy, and I had a few false starts while getting the hang of the gallery creation, but ultimately, it created a very cool presentation with little hassle.

There’s  a free GPL license version (which drops Trial Version into your source code) and a paid version. Hopefully the paid version allows you to remove the credit link from the gallery.

Though I will opt for another solution for this website, I look forward to a project that has an appropriate use for this cool tool.
