Found a great article at DevShed on “Date Arithmetic With MySQL“. The last few days we’ve been kind of puzzled about how to store and actually utilize dates, throwing them back and forth from PHP to MySQL. There seems to be a lack of documentation about MySQL date functions, I bet alot of people are […]

Because no two photographers work alike, Adobe Lightroom adapts to your workflow, not the other way around.
