TheHighlands.com – Updated

Richard — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 14:00:21 +0000

This morning I discovered TheHighlands.com had been hacked to redirect different site. As I’d not kept the site nor Wordpress updated I wasn’t really surprised, but it serves as a valuable lesson to keep applications updated. To plug the gap I’ve replaced the entire site with my gallery of Scottish Mountain Photography.

The snowy scape awaiting Leith this morning was a parade of inscribed windscreens. Found eight examples, but suspect there could have been more. Very funny it was too, I applaud the artist.

Wordpress E-Commerce

Richard — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 15:46:02 +0000

Have just launched online booking for Skinny Tyres using the Wordpress E-Commerce plug-in. It comes will a reasonable set of configurable options meaning it can be pressed into a variety of uses. By default it integrates with PayPal and Google Checkout, but for a fee of about $200 it can be tied in with other payment gateways such as Sage Pay. Will be monitoring its usability before unrolling onto other sites.

Men's Fitness - November 2009

This month’s Men’s Fitness magazine features one of my images from Knoydart. Druim a’ Choire Odhair and Barrisdale Bay shot from the top of Ladhar Bheinn used over two pages to illustrate one of the best wild walks in the country (p 58/59 in case you are looking for it). The route was described by Stevie Christie of Wilderness Jounrneys and director of the Edinburgh Mountain Film Festival. Small world indeed!
