The Love Commandos new site

I've recently finished putting together the Love Commandos new look website. Designed as a new blog style site for the West Midlands rock band it will hopefully attract more people to the band - especially once we get out and start gigging again after completing the album "Siren".

We're getting a makeover

Zakala's website is getting a facelift. I've migrated to a new, improved version of Joomla! Please bear with me while I update the system as it may take a while to get all the old plugins installed and content uploaded.

Three things I learned to day...

1. Joomla 1.5 is NOT yet compatible with PHP 5.3 so don't use XAMPP v1.72 for windows as a development tool (use v1.71 - it has PHP 5.2.9)

2. Audio CDs (I mean the complete package, CD box & booklet) were heavier 20 years ago than they are now.

3. Online job application forms are very annoying and require far more time to complete than downloaded word documents.
