Today I updated my website, to have a fresh new look. I added more backgrounds to the website and updated the old ones. Partly because it was time for a fresh new look, but also because I wasn't too sure about the copyrights on some of the earlier images. The new background images all come from pixabay.com, so they should be copyright free to use.

I had to rescale all of them, which I did using the convert tool from imageMagick. Just one simple command:

convert -quality 70 -size 2000 -resize 2000 +profile '*'

There are a lot of things you can do with ImageMagick, but this rescaled everything having equal width (2000 pixels) and JPEG quality (70). the +profile '*' removes any color profiles stored in the image.

Also I fixed some bugs Google webmasters had detected. some pages should show up better now in the search results.

Well that's about it, until the next blog...
