I mentioned in my review of Uncharted: Drakes Fortune that it was Uncharted 2: Among Thieves that got me in the mood to play the original game.

ACFW Version 0.82 Released

Monday, December 21st, 2009

With the release of WordPress 2.9, a fault with the Advanced Custom Field Widget was identified which resulted in blank instances of the widget being displayed. Version 0.82 (available here) has just been released to address the problem.

ShroudBNC Netgamers Script Moved

Saturday, July 25th, 2009

In my continued efforts to improve the information I provide about the projects I publish, I have moved the information about the ShroudBNC Netgamers script to my wiki.

The wiki is located at http://athena.outer-reaches.com/wiki/ and is accessible through the ‘Wiki’ option in the menu at the top of each page.

WordPress media library open_basedir error

Friday, July 17th, 2009

Well, seems today is my lucky day for finding useful bits of information out about WordPress. Here’s the deal… you backup your site, move servers, restore everything and it all appears to work, BUT, when you go back and try and add an old image that you uploaded before you moved, it won’t display the image in the media library… instead you’re getting an error spouting something about security and open_basedir… if this is your problem… read on as I have a solution.
