Hi guys, I have just done a new illustration in photoshop! Just for my personal amusement.

Check out Viking girl. Think she’s from the old days? Wrong! She’s deceptively from the future. And she comes looking for an argument. The world has regressed into tribal societies, and hers got its identity from the vikings of yore. She hates techno tribes and was in a fight with them when they accidentally sent her to now using their strange time techno wotsits.

I feel like I am learning a little bit more everyday.

Hi Guys,

I decided to make this website a little bit more useful! So here is a list of the places that I think helped me become a better and more interesting web designer.
Amazingly I have come across a couple of web designers lately, who still…STILL use tables and spacer gifs. Although god knows why, because css is especially to make those web designers lives easier! Css is the best thing to happen to the internet ever. FaCT! I don’t understand Web designers who don’t move with the times.

For those of you who aren’t web designers and do not know what the hell I am talking about but still care, check out the wiki entry for css, or a really simple explanation is that it is the simplest bit of code in the world to determine the fonts, formatting, background images for anything on the internet. Chances are you’ve copied some styles/css into your myspace page.
For those of you who don’t know what a myspac…. heehee. Just being cheeky

• CSSZenGarden- this is a great demonstration of the powers of css
• CSSplay-This guy pushes the boundaries of what css is, its his craft
• htmldog – I didn’t use this much but when I did it was uber useful!
• A list Apart – really useful articles
• Think Vitamin - Some really top web designers contribute to this website.

I will probably add to this list at some point as I remember them!

After all of the technical problems! I have finally got my image gallery working. Its nice to finally have it all there. Wordpress is pretty great and free and everything, but it’d be nice if stuff would just work rather than me having to fiddle with it for years! Its such a relief to have it nearly fixed. I am always on the look out for better things though so if you know of any php image gallerys, maybe wordpress plugins if possible then please let me know!
