As the “technical editor” of this blog, I get to do all the fun behind the scenes things to make the magic happen. The theme we are using requires several images to be made for all the various locations they might appear, and each needs to be put in a specific folder. This would be a tedious exercise to do manually for every post we make, so I’ve found a great program (ImageMagick) and written a batch script. It automagically resizes an image to the correct size for each type of image we require, and uploads them to our website in the correct location.

So that means no excuse for not having lots of lovely images on our blog!

Sadly in testing, it doesn’t seem to be sending out any emails (a bit useless for an email subscription system!)

So if anyone does sign up, and doesn’t get the email (you’ll have to manually check the page for updates – just like in the old days when we were kids) could you add a comment to this, or any post, and hopefully one day I’ll get to the bottom of it!

So expect lots of changes, pictures and whizzy things on the site before you hear a lot about our actual plans for getting married!!
