WPMU WordPress Multi User and Photo Peach / PhotoPeach
You need to extend the embed array in kses.php to allow for the additional param’s passed by PhotoPeach..
Something like this..
’embed’ => array (
‘style’ => array (),
‘type’ => array (),
‘id’ => array (),
‘height’ => array (),
‘width’ => array (),
‘allowscriptaccess’ => array (),
‘allowfullscreen’ => array (),
‘flashvars’ => array (),
‘movie’ => array (),
‘photos’ => array (),
‘src’ => array ()),
Look out for ’embed’ => array (
this is where you add your params then close your array with
),
dont forget to close with ,
This took me an hour or so to figure out how to do so hopefully you will be able to do it quicker.

Wireless solutions for Primary Schools
Hi all, on Tuesday and Wednesday next week(25th and 26th of June) I’m doing a presentation aimed at Primary Schools who currently have and/or are thinking of getting wireless devices/networks installed. The agenda for the presentation is:
1.The wireless network
2.The wireless learner
3.Wireless security
4.Wireless life span
5.How much wireless coverage do I need?
6.Wireless costs
7.Additional Considerations IE storage.
8.Wireless safety
9.Questions
The event is being run by Education Bradford’s Curriculum ICT team and details can be found here
Slides and a Webcast will be online shortly after (Probably by Thursday) – These will be available to everyone.

Are people more efficient on wednesdays?
We seem to get about a 2/3% average increase in hits to all of our sites on Wednesdays. This has been a trend for over a year now. Obviously Saturday and Sunday are very low hits as all of our sites are early years & educational.
How to use Open source software to turn a portrait picture into something that resembles a cartoon (with additional alternatives) — (TECHNICAL)
Important notes: Not everyone thinks a cartoon looks the same, cartoons come in many different formats and I try to present some options on this page. This is a technical document and not for general purpose consumption.
ImageMagick++ and GMIC are required. GimpUI is not but Gimp is. Unix is probably required and is recommended.
What I have tried to do is take a normal picture of a primary school kid and treat it so that it is more appealing to the pupil to put on an object of their personal posession.
I have released my findings so if anyone else tries to do the same thing they can:
Simplfied instructions:
Install GIMP-Devel
Install Dependancies for ImageMagick++
Install ImageMagick++
Install Dependancies for GMIC (take note on ftw3)
Install GMIC (takes a long time)
Once GMIC is installed run the commands that I have placed above each example.
You may wish to process this with PHP or Python or so, that should be very simple to do 🙂
GMIC seems to have much lower overheads than ImageMagick++.
Original Image:
GMIC command:
gmic example.jpg -tetris 50 -o example3.jpg
GMIC command:
gmic example.jpg -edges 30 -o example5.jpg
GMIC command:
gmic example.jpg -drawing 30 -o example7.jpg
GMIC command:
gmic example.jpg -stencilbw 20 -o example6.jpg
Yes this looks very weird but if you apply the same effect to the picture of a boy they look like Harry Potter which is pretty cool if your a Primary School kid..
GMIC command:
gmic example.jpg -pencilbw 1 -o example8.jpg
