Change

22 Nov

You’ll notice that there’s something different about the site. A lot different. In fact, everything is new. Except Dr Caligari, that is, he’s still with us, and you know when Caligari is wearing a Santa hat it really is getting close to Christmas.

The truth is, when the old Compaq died it took all my documents and photographs with it to the grave, including all the original and edited php files for the blog, which meant when I finally came to updating the site I couldn’t. To cut a long story short, I decided it would be much easier just to start again and work on something completely new and, now I’ve finally managed to get hold of the Mac version of Photoshop CS4, that’s what I’m doing.

So I hope you like the way the new design is looking. If you know me you’ll know my perfectionist curse and restless tendencies mean I’ll probably start work on an entirely different design within a month, but this seems like a pretty decent design to put up with for the time being. There are still a few php problems I need to work through, and I believe configuration issues at the server’s end are also causing the site to run a little slow, but with any luck all will be sorted a.s.a.p and I can get back to having a joyful blogging experience.

    Changed again now =/
    I was having some problems with the footer on the other design (how can a footer cause so many problems?) so in a moment of rage I deleted it and am now working on another.

    Too much mooning can get you arrested.

    You speak wise words, Jamie. Wise words indeed.
