I've been reworking some of my old catalogues using Lightroom, and am finding that it saves massively on disk space. The "masters" for the Red Sea 2005 trip now occupy 1.42gb in .DNG format, whereas the old PSE versions (stored as .PSD files) occupy 8.76gb. The original ORF files take up 2.6gb And this is from an old 5mp camera. Remember, this also means that I'm using less memory on processing (because the files are smaller) and - more importantly - I'm "swapping" files to disk less often, reducing the activity on (and prolonging the life of) my disk drive.

Not everything’s working too well, but I’m trying to get through the new database structure.

SELECT term_id, name
FROM $wpdb->terms
WHERE term_id IN
(
   SELECT term_id
   FROM $wpdb->term_taxonomy
   WHERE parent=6
)
ORDER BY term_id

As the ‘get_links’ tag - used above - is deprecated in WordPress 2.3, I suppose it’s probably best if you switch to the wp_list_bookmarks tag instead.
