I’ve delivered simple, clear and easy-to-use services for 20 years, for startups, scaleups and government. I write about the nerdy bits here.

Yeah, so I’m posting the dregs of what I’m learning for another project here. Deal with it! I was rather proud of this little gem, not because it’s amazingly complicated, but just because it saves me so much time and bandwidth (think download, process locally using GUI tools, re-upload).

YMMV with the *.JPG bit… obviously will need changing. This whole thing depends on ImageMagick being installed… but it will be on most platforms (By platforms, I mean real operating systems where you don’t need a graphical display to pull these things off! *puts on seedy hardcore chain smoking Unix geek voice* “I do typesetting and print design from the console, man.”), I’d imagine.

Yes, I haven’t been posting as much in the last few days. Between the end of school, the revue, a valedictory service, the formal (and briefly, the afterparty), and setting up a website to house content from all of the above, I haven’t had massive amounts of spare time.
Despite all that, I have no intention of posting about it all here. I figure the various photos say enough…

If you’re in year 12 at SACS, you can now upload your photos of the last days of school to year12.joahua.com. This website was established to facilitate the sharing of photographs captured by the entire yeargroup, and centralise them such that everyone has access to everyone elses’ photos. Get there!

Good times were had by all (and a considerable degree of restraint was shown — we limited ourselves to presentation graphics! Alas, no live vision and replays!), but I didn’t get a chance to take photos. Thankfully, that will soon cease to be a problem. Watch this space.
