Here’s a pic of the new iMac in situ.
Went for the 24″ iMac with the optional ATI Radeon 4850HD graphics card. it is very, very, very fast….
Also finally got some more of the portfolio up and online with some tasteful thumbnails. The rest will be done “soon”….

Need to upload some more portfolio images but I want to wait on permissions etc. first….

Think it’s looking quite nice, people have said it looks good, so I’m reasonably happy given it’s only my second wordpress theme….

On other news, new iMac soon I hope.  Looking forward to a proper full-colour screen (huge screen) and 64-bit loveliness.

Now the long and arduous task of getting some content written is upon me!

The Pixelforge Theme

Finally have a nice looking website here, although not having done CSS design before it took way longer than I’d hoped.

Gratuitous and flattering praise to the experts who reside in the #wordpress channel on irc.freenode.net, a couple of whom in particular really went the extra mile to help me make this theme.  I quite simply could not have done it without them.  Thanks guys!

Suppose I’d better fill it with some content now, hadn’t I?

That being said, I like this theme, but it is quite dark.  I was thinking of making a “lite” version that has black-text-on-white instead.  I think the theming bug has got me in it’s slimy little tentacles!
