We All Mess Up – Just Not As Badly As This

Admit it – you’ve been making changes to a live site and something went wrong. You screwed up the site and spent an hour or more fixing it while visitors kept coming and kept wondering what on earth was going on.

However, you don’t run one of the 40 most popular sites in the world…

For about an hour this morning, some poor staffer at the BBC posted an unedited photo of England cricket captain Michael Vaughan. The photo was so large that it made a complete mess of the BBC’s frontpage. 3000 pixels high and 2158 pixels wide? Woops, should have been 66×49…

The image was so big that the frontpage was pretty much unusable while it was posted. Check out the original photo and the correct one.
