Re: Irish Papermoney.com Changelog. Version 1.2.1 to v2.1.0 SLEP upgrade
Finally started work on Phase Three B upgrade of the Old Notes section, with the collation of all the images of Joint Stock Bank notes 1783-1920 that I have been accumulating, mostly from the web, over the past 20 years. There are well over 600 new pics so far, with more to be added and named!
Several large older collections came onto the market over the past decade, providing a good range of notes for illustration. Also, some notes are available from museums, archives, and private collections. This provides a good arrange of the notes issues which were not available for illustration back in 2001 when the original Old Notes section was added.
The sections on each of the six banks will be completely replaced with the new structure already in use for later Old Notes, 1918-1920.
There are six Task Groups in Phase Three B:
—Bank of Ireland sections on 1783-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.
—Belfast Banking Company sections on 1824-1920 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.
—National Bank sections on 1835-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.
—Northern Bank sections on 1824-1920 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.
—Provincial Bank of Ireland sections on 1824-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.
—Ulster Bank sections on 1835-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 10% complete.

Re: Irish Papermoney.com Changelog. Version 1.2.1 to v2.1.0 SLEP upgrade
The basic layout for the Phase Three B upgrade, stage 1 below is now completed.
There are three stages in Phase Three B:
1. Create new introduction pages for each of the six banks. Start: 26.03.18. 80% complete.
2. Create new pages for banknote images. Start: 26.03.18. 0% complete.
3. Process images gathered and standardise at 72dpi, 1:1 scale of actual size. Start: 16.04.18. 40% complete.
Many of the banknote images were submitted and gathered from the web and other sources since 2002. Some were scanned from collections and archives. Others are taken with camera phones and other photo devices. These all need to be prepared and saved at actual size relative to each other. In many cases the images will need to have their colour corrected to remove scanner and other artefacts.
Currently there are 700+ banknote pictures to be prepped for the first update, which will provide a comprehensive display of the banknotes issued by the six joint stock banks since their creation.
More images will then be added later on.

Updating broken links is always a pain.
Poxy Museum and University websites are the worst—they keep moving their web pages, bloody annoying.

Progress on the six Task Groups in Phase Three B:
—Bank of Ireland sections on 1783-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 30% complete.
—Belfast Banking Company sections on 1824-1920 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 25% complete.

—Provincial Bank of Ireland sections on 1824-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 25% complete.
—Ulster Bank sections on 1835-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 25% complete.
I have been working on preparing the images for the six Banks, this is now completed.
25% complete was a milestone as it denotes that all the available images for the Banks have been gathered, given a descriptive name, and arranged for placement into the pages.
Phase 3B, Stage 2. Creation of new pages for banknote images will take the longest, and largely remains to be started. It accounts for the remaining 75% of the work on each bank.
The Banks will be done one at a time, and then connected together.
I aim to go live with each bank as it is completed, given the length of time which it will take for the entire task to be completed.
Bank of Ireland has been started on thus far.

Progress on the six Task Groups in Phase Three B:
—Bank of Ireland sections on 1783-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 99% complete.
—Belfast Banking Company sections on 1824-1920 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 99% complete.
—National Bank sections on 1835-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 99% complete.

—Ulster Bank sections on 1835-1918 notes upgrade. Start: 26.03.18. 99% complete.
Got a good run at this.
99% complete is essentially complete with the exception of a last check to make sure there are no continuity errors.
the new sections should be up and running within a few days.
This will see the addition of several hundred new images, and the upgrading of most of the existing images in the Old Notes section.

Re: Irish Papermoney.com Changelog. Version 1.2.1 to v2.1.0 SLEP upgrade
Version 2.2.0 of irishpapermoney.com is now live. This is a very major upgrade (from v2.1.n), in which most of the remaining modem-designed pages have been removed, and their contents consolidated into fewer pages. This has resulted in a reduction of the website extent by slightly under 300 pages.
Legal Tender Notes, A Series, B Series, C Series, Consolidated Notes, and Old notes have been extensively revised.
Some lower quality images have been upgraded as better examples have become available. This image upgrade process will continue.
Update on completion levels of site upgrade.
Phase One: 100% complete.
Phase Two: 100% complete.
Phase Three: 100% complete.
Phase Four: 5% complete
SLEP3 is now complete. Phase 4 will continue on the next upgrade program, CAP3, which has already commenced.
