Simple photo rotator
The day of the year is now 328 and the index is now 6
The time is 19:31:28
Note: Try seconds (s) as the key instead of day of the year (z). This makes the image nearly random at each load and limits the number of images to 60, but the Mediawiki cache slows down the rotation.
Choosing Photos
- all images should be in approximately 6x4 format (as produced by a standard 35mm camera), oriented horizontally. They will be resized to 350 pixels wide automatically. If the image is taller than it is wide, then resizing to 350px horizontally will still leave it much too large vertically - thus, we have to use horizontal images only.
- Please choose top quality pictures - nothing blurred, dark, murky, out of focus, or with a tree seeming to grow from someone's head - showing historical artifacts, historic sites, groups of Nova Roma citizens, citizens at Roman sites...
Add photo to gallery
Please add this tag: [[Category:Main page]] to the photo description. This will place the photos in Category:Main page.
