Ive created a template ‘about’ page….this is definately a page i will be editing at a later date, but for now i feel its necessary to get as much information up as possible as my website is now live, so it will do!
There is a single link which will take you to a PDF of my CV.
I will be looking at changing my CV to keep with the theme of the blog and website, this will be happening in the next couple of weeks.

Ive been busy today updating the website, alot of the portfolio page wasnt working properly after i tried to implement lightbox (not sure if ill be using it now!). Ive also added a first layout of the contacts page and updated the blog banner so it is more in theme with my website.

Ive been in the library today doing various bits of work. I came accross a book called ‘Portfolios Online – Digital and graphic design websites’ Edited by Kathleen Ziegler and Nick Greco. If anyone is doing an online portfolio i would recommend having a look at this book. The fact that its quite a dated book, yet the websites all look incredibly modern got me abit worried about my design and has definately urged me on to improve it!
Also i noticed an advert for an Art + Design booksale in Eldon on the 22nd of April from 9.30am to 2pm. Ill be heading down for some inspiration!

Im currently coding my homepage and portfolio so that each link opens up in a seperate window specifically sized to the page contained inside. This is so i can link things like my blog and flickr profile without sending users away from my site. It also looks pretty cool for specifically sized pages such as my portfolio as there is less white space. http://www.boutell.com is particularly usefull for some scripting help.
