Yes I know,  it’s been some time doing anything here, I’ve had my head here and there and just had not had the time to sit and think of something great to make and post up.

It’s heart braking really seeing all my friends who also do design are moving on, but I’m sure we will all come back with a big bang! Anyway I just wanted to update here with some work I’ve been doing with photoshop when it comes to making your own images. So here some I’ve done, not great but still learning.

Yep I have put something new design up at last, It’s a cute iframe and yes I know there is not much call for them any more, but I wanted to make one being it’s been a very long time I’ve did do one. Also it’s nice for people that still like using them to have somewhere to find new ones.

I was chatting to a friend the other day about Wordpress and how it’s almost taking over standard websites, in a way it’s making us lazy when it comes to making or learning coding or web design and in many ways killing web design sites. It’s a shame that now people are only looking for  Wordpress themes and not wanting to take the time to make a design themselves.

Wordpress as come the in thing around the WWW meaning if you have a site running Wordpress and a nice looking layout, then it must be a cool site, but to tell the truth it’s so easy to make a layout for it. I finding a lot of bad points using Wordpress and the main one is slowing down of your site. It seems the more content you add the slower it gets, which I find wired when it should be running faster as it coming off an SQL database.

Another thing is that Wordpress are so up themselves now that it seems every month we have a new update and it becoming a pain, because I know you have this install button, but you still have to back everything up just in case.

I know that Wordpress is great for people that know nothing about coding and if you are a newbie to webbing, but now I see so many people who are great at site designing running everything on it! And to me that a shame.

I know I use Wordpress myself! But I don’t run everything on it! I make my  site like normal, then I upload it. I then have Wordpress install and then make the theme for it using a copy of the site. this is so I can use the content manger and the contact plugin. that all that is being used of the wordpress. all the other pages you see around here are my own files. Doing it this way mean the site loads faster.

I may start back up making some Wordpress things but just now I want web designers to get the passion back to making a website even if its just using Cutenews on there sites, then just having thing on an content manager that an 5 year old could use.

Ok that my point over with… x

Hello all,

Yes I’m back! The site stay with the same host but I open another account, as you see a new layout and should load a lot faster, now that most of it is not running using wordpress, the only part of wordpress being used is the content, comments and contact forum.

I found that having everything in wordpress was only slowing the site down, sadly the more updates being done the bigger and slower wordpress is getting when running on a site.

Other then the new layout for the site, not much as changed, I don’t have the Tutorials bit up yet as I want to re-do them also I don’t have any new layouts or wallpaper up yet as well. But now the site is up and running I will get my ass moving.

I’m still tweaking around on here, so if you find something wrong, please let me know so I can fix it, well that my post for now and I’m happy I’m back. x
