FarStyle.com - Free Web site templates and personal Web site of a self-employed coder.

I’ve just today launched the 2008 version of my company Web site, Site Creative web Design.

For those that don’t know, Site Creative is a UK based Web site design company specialising in creating Web sites for small to medium sized businesses and organisations. I started Site Creative about two years ago after quitting my job to be self employed once again, and quickly built up a nice portfolio of clients, some of which still come back to me on a regular basis. So I can’t be doing that much wrong.

The new site uses EM’s instead of Pixels for sizing, it is my first venture in this area, and its a really neat effect. Try resizing the text in your browser to see what I mean.

I decided to use EM’s after reading the excellent article here.

So, what do you think?

Saw this on some site - can’t remember which. Like zoomquilt, but better!

I’ve added a portfolio set to my flickr account, ten of my most recent works that I can say I’m happy with, you can see 9 of them in my flickr stream on this page.

I fished out my wireless mouse last week - I hadn’t had the chance until now since moving here, and was immediately hit by the “Your mouse batteries are critical” message.

So, I put my batteries on charge, and I’m just starting to wonder wtf the point was in that message, seven days of more or less continuous day time use later, it’s still working. What’s with that?

Is it a cheeky scam to make you use batteries quicker?

It’s official, Craftsman Web design is in business, we are on the very verge of our first client and really can’t wait to get stuck into the whole thing.

We went to Blenheim Palace at the weekend for a crafts fair and the English bank holiday weekend weather could not have been any kinder. That is, if we where ducks but as we aren’t, we got soaked to the bone and had to leave a little early for the cold!

The new company is aimed at fulfilling a specific need - Web site design for those on limited budgets. There are so many crafters out there who do not have a Web site that we felt with our knowledge of the crafts industry combined, we would do very well to offer a service to those who really could do with an online presence of sorts.

Here’s to the first of many clients I hope! *chink*

So, I finally have a logo for my company that I am really happy with, and it has so much potential as there seems to be no limit to what could be done with it, but when it comes down to it, I can simply not design a Web site around the logo.

I think I know what I want the new Web site to be like - in terms of content and structure that is, but in terms of design I am at a complete loss.
More..

But we did have the seventh fastest time of the day. Yay.

Thank to my Dad, I’ll be spending my Sunday at Broughton Castle in a dragon Boat, in aid of the charities that the Banbury Rotary Club support.

We will most likely sink, our average weight is quite high, and think we might need snorkels. If you don’t hear from me, you’ll know why!
