I've upgraded my blog to Drupal 6 but it seems something gone wrong. The text part works fine.

The photo division will be back in a day or two. I decided to rework it completely anyway so some older images will be back later.

The full moon is a great push anyway :)

There are a lot of improvements comparing to D5 concept. Now almost all critical issues are handled with views2 and image_cache (comparing to theme and image.module in D5). Images are migrated to CCK image field.

Will post some overview of creating your photoblog (and more) on Drupal later when time...

I can not say I was exactly pissed off by this situation. But I would say inadequate "user experience" was guaranteed. Well. It took me more then an hour but I payed for my 3G connection while away from WinXP VMs on my external HD. One thing is that VMWare somehow degraded the product for older OS with new major update. The other is why smart guys at e-bank use Windows only compatible "security" software at all which is not so needed in the real world. It is just unprofessional (though it looks like). I understand that developing "hardware enabled software security system" will attract a...

I've ruined permissions at my home backup drive (it was 75% my fault to be honest). I tried to fix it terminal/unix way but it ended up with something even worser. Broken resource forks, fancy non existing users and permissions... (OMG, my lovely icons collection gone in bits and pieces). Then I was looking for easy solution to get back those zillion files live and proper. And you know what?

The easiest way is to copy your files to FAT32 dive if you have any handy. What will happen: all your permissions will null comparing to HFS+ (but keeping icons, forks, bundles etc intact though...

I've been reinstalling my P1i again (experimenting too much...). Next step is to sync it with my Mac. But there is a glitch with Sony's iSync plugin: connection lost with the phone when syncing for a first time. I think the problem is with amount of contacts you have in your Address Book. I have over 500 and it never worked for me straight away.

A small hint to deal with the situation: backup your Address Book (File -> Export -> Address Book Archive) then delete all the contacts in your Address Book (don't be scared, you have a backup). Sync your P1i again with empty Address...

This concept was slightly changed versus previous Photoblog on Drupal idea. The biggest thing missing with the new concept comparing to the previous one is lack of any user level permissions. Any kind of private content was not so popular among my friends and colleagues so it was dropped (everybody prefer email for this type of images).

There are more nice modules available now. It somewhat forced to add more nice features (like front page slideshow). And it also made possible to bring any custom coding to its minimum. Tagadelic for...
