   Hey everyone. As part of building my WordPress skills and my new site (which I won't name here so as not to be spamming), I would like to take over some abandoned but missed plugins and develop some new ones that people want. Ideally, I would like to do one a week for a year, but I know my life will never let that happen. So, I'll shoot for 25 in a year.

   So, hit me up with requests and I'll still them in the queue. This is a real offer from a developer with 17 years of experience.

   -John Leavitt.

   That's a very nice offer, thank you :)
   I might be wrong but I remember seeing a Codex page with "abandoned" plugins. Just have to find it.

   Maybe MichaelH will come around...

   Yeah, but I only got around to adding CQS to that page:
   User:MichaelH/Orphaned_Plugins_needing_Adoption

   I would suggest joining the wp-hackers email list and ask if anyone there has a plugin they want to spin-off ;)

   The Another Flickr plugin is awesome, I love and miss that one. No word from the original developer for that one since January.

   Here's the original page from where it can be downloaded:

   CQS has at least two updates:
   - one with UTW tags combined
   - one more modest one

   The plugin is not dead but I want to use http://www.joshgerdes.com/blog/projects/simpleflickr-plugin/ this plugin for my website, but I need it to return the original size for the flickr images, not the medium which is standard. I asked the original developer but says he didn't have the time. It can be done I just don't know php well enough to try it on my own, if you could figure it out for me I would appreciate it

   TTFtitles is awesome by the way. Thank you for this effort. Very productive since I was finally forced to switch from Image Headlines, you provided a critical replacement here.

   It would be really nice if you had a better documentation for people making the switch. Mainly if you could give the code for the TTF template tags WITH the recommended conditional (the thing that tells it IF FUNCTION EXISTS...) because without this, someone's blog completely breaks if the plugin is briefly deactivated.

   For me, the code I'm talking about looks something like this (took me 2 days to figure this out because I'm new with the PHP stuff)
   

   <?php if (function_exists('the_ttftitle')) {  the_ttftitle($before="", $after="", $echo=true, $style="YOUR-STYLE-NAME-HERE"); } ?>

   thanks again for making this possible
