Instructions
Download: Sublime Text 2
Use Sublime Text to edit markdown (.md) files
Step 01
Duplicate and rename template file e.g. release010.md / event010.md and open in Sublime Text.
Step 02
Edit all fields (each new field starts with a comment (#)). Refer to existing posts for help.
Step 03
Upload your new release (.md) file here: Releases
Upload your new event (.md) file here: Events
Be sure to write a commit message
Step 04
Upload a release image here: Release images
Upload an event image here: Event images
Step 05
Check that all the details you've entered are correct.
Step 06
Once you are happy and you've checked there are no mistakes, go to your post on GitHub and click edit. Change 'draft = true' to read 'draft = false'. Commit this change. This will publish your new release/event.
Step 07
Wait a few minutes for the site to regenerate and your new post to appear.
Troubleshooting
If your post doesn't appear, check your Commits. It will likely be a formatting issue e.g. a missing comma.

Compress
Download: ImageOptim
Important: Before using ImageOptim, make a copy of the original (uncompressed) .jpg. Once you run ImageOptim, the file will be overwritten. I suggest keeping two folders – Uncompressed images and Compressed images.
