As wordpress organizes and categorises posts, archives, all sorts of things, you think it would be a simple task to use it’s structure for a non-blog style website. With this in mind:
I have found myself high and dry above the web triangle, my compass spinning. Continue reading ..

We moved into our new house. Four humans, (debatable) and three cats about one month before christmas, the dust is just beginning to settle.
It’s one of those things you don’t realise until you’re actually through the door how much work needs to be done.

The site as it stands was produced about feb 06, I was resonably happy with the design at the time, but rachel has moved onwards and is in the process of releasing her second album.
Name to be announced any time soon.
During the last few months Rachel has been busy playing gigs around the uk, building up her exposure, while I was consumed in other projects. Consequently aspects of the site became a little rushed, and thrown together at the last minute.
With the imminent arrival of the new album I wanted to freshen and clean up the design, as well as the underlying code.

As mentioned in a previous post, my first website central12.com has moved from free hosting to the servers at Dreamhost.
All the transferring went fairly smoothly, but with the move I was checking through pages, on a newly installed version of internet explorer.

I have swapped free hosting for the feature filled befefits you can only get through quality paid hosting.
This site is still presently hosted by the fantastic team at awardspace, but I expect to be transferring the domain soon.
Well I have been at this web design thing for a while now, and in the beginning, through the learnig curve high on my list of priorities was to use open source and free software/ hosting. This has worked well and with the help of the community, and google I have indeed achieved what I set out to do.
Things change over time however and I have been toying with the idea of paid hosting primarily to make my jod as designer easier.
More space for pics, sites, and faster loading times, that is both upload and page rendering times.
I once tried to split my one database to create two independant sites, needless to say it was a futile task.
More later, work to do!

Oikofugic Design has branched out
It wasn’t anything I had considered until recently, hadn’t come across any myspace pages whilst browsing, and hadn’t even looked at what the site had to offer.
Chatting at work, and it turns out that these social networking pages are indeed very popular, apparently over 50 million unique users.
So I searched Mat with one ‘T’ , one in a million. Mat’s place. and whilst there I found DJ Burger aka Chris, check his home and thought to myself why the hell not, no-one ever looks at my website, and so far I’ve had nowt but spam on the new blog, so I decided to take the plunge.
That was a few days ago, but didn’t get round to following up my plans until I came across an article by Mike D of Mike industries titled hacking a more tasteful myspace.
He has provided copy and paste css and instructions you can download, you do a little image tweaking and whatever modifications you desire and you are away with a myspace page you can be proud of. Cheers Mike
