New paper-jam website : kind to animals
Web // Steve // 8th January 2006
This is the amazing new fourth or fifth design of the paper-jam website. I've lost count now, it's ridiculous. No animals were harmed in the making of this new site, but there was plenty of swearing, believe me.
One thing that was causing particular cursage was updating the structure of the database on the live server without trashing all the data that was there already... the answer was mysqldiff, which works out the structural difference between two databases. I used it to generate the update SQL script; it needed a bit of editing afterwards, but nothing serious.
Hooray for Stephan Skusa who wrote mysqldiff, there'll be a donation winging it's way over to him once my credit card has recovered from the sticky brown mess it's currently in.

Yep, despite it being September 2006. Suspicious time travelling website.
