Website UpgradeAs part of the development of this website I have Upgraded the Photo Gallery Software.  Hopefully you will see vast improvements in this system as well as it being a lot easier for me to maintain, upgrade and add new content.  I have also upgraded the sytem that my Caving & Diving Logbook runs on and also added some software for my running and cycling logbooks.  This has the adavantage that they can be inter-linked with the New Photo Gallery and the Reports to make Navigation easier.

Advantages of upgrading to these systems

  • Photo Gallery 
  • Photo Gallery is a lot easier to navigate round and should run a lot quicker.
  • The Photos are all inter-linked with each other and also with the Logbooks making content easier to find.
  • I can add photos directly from Microsoft Windows XP. I don't even have to open Internet Explorer to add new Photos.
  • Caving Logbook
  • Easily linked to the Photo Gallery.  I can also update this from my mobile phone.
  • Diving Logbook
  • This gets imported directly from my Diving computer (UWATEC Aladin Pro) when I connect it to the computer, which obiously makes life a lot easier.  All I then have to do is add any description or comments I want to add.
  • Running / Cycling Logbook
  • This gets imported from my GPS Watch (Garmin Forerunner 305).

Disadvantages of upgrading to these systems

  • A number of links are now out of date.
  • It will take a few weeks for the search engines to update their databases with the new links.
