Well I finally got my arse into gear and re did my little ol’ site. Now i don’t confess to be a web designer, but I know what I like. So I did it all myself with a lot of influence from Matt Brett and Elliot Jay Stocks. I hope I have not plagiarized their work too much. I just love that kind of design and tore my hair out trying see how they did it the context of Wordpress. I try and validate my work as much as possible just ‘cos I am a anorak!. This is a work in progress so ignore the bugs, they will be fixed soon. Here is what i used.
- Rencent Posts and Comments plugin by Rob J Marsh
- FancyZoom js for pic zooming. Easier to use than Lightbox.(coming soon)
- Last FM Records plugin
- Twitter Tools
- WP Youtube plugin. Lets me display validated vids
- Simple Tags Plugin
- Friend Feed Activity widget for Lifestream.( Will hard code that soon)
Anyway on another note I have got together with the talented Clive Murray, Mark Lemon and Vince Webb formerly of The Kalm, to form a metal covers band. Really looking forward to that. It is great to be playing more guitar lateley. I have really missed it. The band is called Panik Atakk..very 8o’s!. No doubt a website will appear with various dodgy entertainment
