It has sure been a while!

I didn't realise how long I posted my last entry. I've been too busy dealing with sorting the site skin again and getting the navigation bar to work. But alas, It is done and I hope it is better than before.

Also since then I've managed to get my hands on a copy of  "Adanced Photoshop The Premium Collection Vol. 3" magazine/booklet. I must say, I found it really useful and I've seen a lot of wonderful works by artists. Few of the image I've seen have even inspired to start being more creative in photoshop and I have made a few more images which can be found in my Gallery.

I really have managed to find that spark of enthusiasm for Digital Art again. It did help that people have been adding my wallpaper's to the favourite's on Deviant. But I should really try to do more work in the style to see if I haven't lost that spark. It really would be a shame if I did and I don't know if I would be able to get it back, but who really knows.  At least I've been able to also get back into studying for my web design course a little more seriously. I've even gone out and brought some books (yes people, I did say the work "BOOK", I know its a a rare thing to hear my say/type, but I did) on web design, PHP and MySQL and HTML, XHTML and CSS. I should be receiving a book on Adobe Flash as I will need all the help I can get with that one.  So you might see more changes with the site as times goes on.

Creativity

Well I am sure most of you can tell there has been a change in the skin for this site. Its not completely finished as I have yet to properly sort out the footer, but it is getting there. I don't think I am some what an artist when its comes to design. But I suppose what I lack at the moment, I will hopefully gain with time.

Just being able to actually get this far with the skin is an achievement. It did take a while with the images to line up correctly. Which is what I tried to do first before I can create better graphics. But the layout is getting a little bit more technical with images above other images and using div tags. I must say, after trying to get this far in CSS, I really have become more knowledgable in the coding.  Just being able to remember the layout of CSS makes everything else a little easier. Because most of the properties within CSS can also be placed into other formates, it just happens to be worded differently, which if you remember the original CSS code and the code to which you want to add such attributes then its not that hard.

If anyone has any pointers then, please leave me a comment on what else I can do. ^___^
