The whole of this site - and alistairmcclymont.com is controlled by a custom CMS system. Virtually everything is editable online. Primarily this is useful for my portfolio and biography.

The portfolio has a system that enables me to upload an image online - this image is then automatically resized, recompressed and a thumbnail is created. It is then put into the appropriate area of my portfolio along with all the info. The whole thing is done with php (using GD Lib to resample the images) and mySQL. The biography is the same - and it gets automatically reordered by date (forthcoming, current, past areas etc). The news area is a customized wordpress Kubric theme (i’m itching to use the K2 theme - its just too uncompliant with internet explorer at the mo (on a mac - i know its a crap un-supported brower, but so many of the people i deal with use it)).
