Client brief:

Need to manage the site themselves and upload video and photos WITHOUT having to mess about with resizing.

Also important that anglers can look on the website and see today's Sunrise/Sunset so they know when last cast is - currently laboriously done by hand

Method:

Use programmming to upload any size photo, the system automatically resizes it to 800x600 and then creates thumbnail and main images on the fly when required. We used hew features in PHP5 date function to generate the sunrise/sunset automatically, needing no client intervention.

Result:
