Add some template tags

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,
I've created some template tags for photologue. My idea was to use
photologue as a central repository of images which I then can reference in
any template with (for example):

{% get_rotating_photo 'splash-page-gallery' 'splash_page' 'splash_img' %}

The above example is taken from the splash page at
http://www.londonbellydancer.co.uk/ - each time the page loads, a photo is
picked at random from gallery 'splash-page-gallery'.

The library that I've written contains 2 tags - one loads a photo, the
other a photo from a gallery.
More detailed instructions on use are included in the source code for each tag.
The code is still a bit rough, for example the input could be made more
flexible, but I think that even in its current state it may be useful to
other people.

Let me know what you think!
Richard

hello,

now I can see that the current template tag is named photologue, instead of the 
name
of this patch 'photologue_tag'.

This is a possible cause of bugs and strange behaivour as far as the most of 
the user
normally import photologue simply as photologue. As far as both names are the 
same,
the order to import it can be different and python can import photologue (the 
tag)
instead of photologue (the application), causing problems like:

AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'models'

Because the photologue tag module doesn't have the models attribute, as 
obvious. I
think is a good practice to rename this tag to photologue_tag instead of this 
name.

I'll put this, along with expanded template tags on the list for 2.1.

I know this issue is quite a bit old, but I found myself needing this lately 
too.
Attached is an updated diff against the trunk, with necessary updates to work 
with
the trunk.
