Website updated to Drupal 5.3

I finally scraped together some time and updated my website to Drupal 5.3. I still had some flexinode content on the site that I have now switched over to CCK nodes. I also changed the Portfolio system so that each project is now a CCK node - I used image module for this before.

I am still planning on updating the theme, so this back-end update was the first step in that process.

Now I am able to use the latest and greatest version of CAPTCHA to block those freaking spammers. Try get through this, you little buggers!

Another thing you can do is

Another thing you can do is setup symlinks so that when a new Drupal release comes along, all you have to do is replace the symlink pointing to the latest Drupal 5 release...

Drupal/drupal-5.0/
Drupal/drupal-5.1/
Drupal/drupal-5.2/
Drupal/drupal-5.3/
Drupal/drupal-6.0-beta1/
Drupal/drupal-6.0-beta2/
Drupal/5 --> Symlink to drupal-5.3
Drupal/6 --> Symlink to drupal-6.0-beta2

Within this, you have the sites directory of the Drupal installs symlink to Drupal/sites, and files symlink to Drupal/files. Then, when a new release comes out, you just extract it, and update the symlinks to the new version. Easy!
