Goodbye Hackbash, hello Hackbash

Since 2007 we’ve gone from being a two-man blog, to a one-man blog, and most recently a sadly neglected blog. At the same time Charlie has moved on to better things at Neo, while I struck out on my own a couple of years back. I’m glad to report that we’re still great friends, and [...]

Aw nuts, I killed our pictures

Oops. A week or so ago I finally remembered to delete the original Hackbash, hosted on WordPress.com Are you sure you want to permanently delete this blog? it asked. Yes, I duly confirmed. I’ve just discovered that exporting the blog to our self-hosted WordPress install at the beginning of January didn’t bring 2007′s image uploads [...]

The irony

So here’s me always dribbling on about everyone else’s shit copy, and I’ve just spotted this on our 404 page. Anyone know how to edit WordPress themes?
