Birmingham Office, uploaded on 15th April, 2010 by Rob Parker

Last week I went to Birmingham for the day and I took a few photos which are now up on my Flickr. Go have a look and I hope you like them as much as I do!

There’s new date, category and tag displays for each post as well as new icons for all of those and for the comment section on posts. Its only little but its a nice touch!

A couple of other tweaks too, including a ‘Donate’ and slight footer simplification as well as an improvement to ‘Image Attachment’ pages which frankly never made sense before.

Enjoy! I’m pretty pleased :)

Heard this on the radio today and I really liked it. Frankly, I didn’t get the song at first, but, well, you know from the title what it is now! Anyway, have a listen if you fancy, I got this track from Sterogum but you can get the track or album from Amazon.

Enjoy!

    This is also designed to encompass the idea of emotional intelligence, of understanding other people, their emotions and feelings.

This site had had the old look for too long now, and its always good to have a refresh. This new look brings in some nice colours and an interesting approach to navigation and movement around the site.

    The style is essentially dark blue/grey, with a new header design as well. The logo has been replaced with that which appears on most other websites. The new smaller links bar at the top provides links to my most popular other places (Facebook and Twitter) as well as RSS Feeds and also some of my other projects. The main links section for the site has been replaced with a new, friendly message which also acts as clear links for the site content.

    Improved and simplified CSS has also been used.

    At the moment there are still a few rough edges, with essentially the site structure still the same. There will be some future change to templates to better improve what is possible. The development of other sites has taught me alot more about all the things we can do with WordPress, and I’m keen to use them here too!

    Anyway, geekyness over. Thanks, and I hope you like it!
