Alex Elliott

So, as predicted there’s already been a pretty big gap, but that’s not to say I’ve been neglecting the blog.  I’ve had a new bespoke design drafted up by a friend I know through a web development community, which I hope to get properly skinned for WP and set up as a personal site on alex-elliott.co.uk soon.  The designer is Adam McPeake, who is linked in the blogroll under wized (wized.net is his portfolio).

Previews

So, while I get to work converting the design into a WP theme and writing a CMS for my personal site, here’s a preview of what it should eventually look like (the main site, and the blog):

Hope to have some more updates about this soon, or maybe you’ll be reading this in the lovely new theme.

UPDATE: as you may have noticed the new design has been skinned into WP (and I rediscovered precisely why I hate that theme system). Hopefully things still work, but if they don’t please do comment and let me know.

NOTE: yes, the rest of the site isn’t done yet, what’s up is an example of what it should look like when done (at least the index page), I’ll start on getting the main top links at least drafted into markup now – and I should be able to finish the about and contact pages completely within a few days.

Exciting stuff.
