Site

Update didn't work :-(

I've singularly failed to manage to upgrade the site from Drupal 4.5.2 to 4.6. After dropping the database, reloading it, faffing with files, dropping the database a couple of times more and having it screw up time and time again I finally gave up for now and reloaded everything that was up before.

I have no clue why it didn't work as the update script seemed to work but never mind :-(

Mammoth Image Session

Well I've got a lot of images done. I tend to only have either origninal psd's or jpg's straight from the camera saved so each one has to be shrunk, have any editing it needs and then saved ready for upload. I'm not too sure about putting images up on websites. I know that I want to show off my work but at such smal sizes and poor quality jpg's they never look as good. And if you put the big, good quality images up there's no way you can protect them at all from people who think anything that is on the web has no copyrights or usage restrictions on it.

Images on Site

I've given up on getting ImageMagick to install without SSH. I'll just use GD as it's a global install with my host.

I now need to organise all my photos and images into a form that will allow uploading to the site. It's a job I'm not looking forward to even though I have very few images.

Damnit!

I can't get the bloody image to upload and display properly! Will have to leave it for a bit to see if taking a break gives my brain a chance to reboot.

Hmm, how do I install Imagemagick without SSH access?

Interesting...

I wasn't exactly sure how I was going to get fanfic to work in this thing. Admittedly it's a bit labour intensive as it really would work a lot better if there were a specific module for it or a nice bit of php but since I'm better described as a 'script kiddie' rather than a 'coder' I'm happy for now.
