Based on wordpress this site will hopefully be more active than it has been in the past. There are still areas to complete such as the portfolio section, but that shouldn’t be too far away. Now that I won’t be spending as much time on this site’s development perhaps I can focus more on phreplace, although I should spend some more time studying for my MCPD exams.

I promised myself I’d do at least 3 concepts before converting it to html, but being impatient as I am I think this design will go to press. I hope that being based on a blogging platform I might maintain the site more and keep the content dynamic, so themes may be improved or updated as it evolves.

Although I love web design and the whole design process, I see work out there that is fantastic and when it come to icon designs there’s no point in trying to do my own when there is great stuff available for free. Below are some of the images used on this site and where you can get them yourself.

I wanted the bird facing left which meant I had to recreate the ‘follow me!’ text on his card.
