Promote Yourself, Save Your Server

Just a quick entry here to advise an improvement made to my Blog Promotion Tool.

I realised, as I was placing examples of the dynamic images all over the place, that server load may increase with all this image manipulation work being carried out by PHP. The image_factory now caches all files it creates and simply loads the cached image if all parameters and content are the same. When the content for the feed that you get your dynamic comes from changes, all cached images will be deleted so that you aren’t clogging up storage space.

It’s a simple improvement and doesn’t require that you change the way the package is deployed at all. The only thing you need to do is make sure the ‘cache’ directory in the package is writable by the server (permissions of 775 should cover it). Here is the download link again, I have also updated the download link in the first post

I have updated the documentation so you can see the new code as well.
