Amazing as it is, I get bored at home, so playing with this entertains me. Its blue, and it has a much simplified homepage which was inspired by another site I was browsing earlier today. I really wanted the background to be a lighter colour (as I like this website to look light and bright) and I wanted to use this photo…
…but I couldn’t find the original so I had to settle for a cropped load of sky from another nice photo I have. I think it looks pretty decent, although I really cannot be bothered to test it with stupid Internet Explorer.
Enjoy! It’s likely that it won’t be here for long!

There’s been a tiny little change in these parts. If you glance up to the header of this website, it used to read slightly differently! I have removed the ‘Design’ link and added a new ‘Home’ link…
The Design area will have a revamp in the summer, but until then its off the site. And removing that leaves plenty of space for a ‘Home’ link which should navigation. Also, played with the page ordering features in WordPress to achieve this.
Enjoy

Happened to stumble across this site today, and its actually quite a good read. Although I am actually past the stage this particular post really talks about, its really well written, clear, simple and straight-forward advice.
Although, the focus is really on blogging, with WordPress the line between blogs and websites is pretty much non-existent (you’re on an example of that right now) so much of what works for one is for the other. Sadly, at the moment, this is only hosted on WordPress.com, but perhaps sometime in the future I will move to a proper WordPress install, plug-ins and all!
Anyway, here’s the link

I’ve added some new photos to the top of the Home, About and Elsewhere pages this evening. Just some photos that are (kind of!) related to the page and help to lift it a little bit (?!).
Anyway, I like them!
Just The Odd Few Tweaks
Posted on Saturday 20th March 2010
Just made a few little tweaks this site needed after the more major (if quickly done) design change a while back. 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
