So as an emergency, I have put up a basic framework, which I will start to design in the new year. The site is going to look a bit plain for the time being but should be a good experience building a new one, as my WordPress and coding skills have come a long way in the last year.

Upgraded myself from the static HTML and CSS site to one driven by WordPress. Originally I had planned to build my own template from scratch, but thought “baby steps first…” so looked for a pre-built one, with the intention of modifying it to look and work the way I wanted it to.

Original templateI came across a free template that was available for download from a Chinese designer called yichi. Taking the original dark theme, I have completely changed the colour scheme, and changed and amended the CSS (keeping the same IDs and classes) while keeping the structure and certain elements of the site. I also added additional plugins such as cformsII for the contact form.

There were a few little bugs I had to iron out, so that the site met W3C standards (and I got the green tick in my HTML validation tool bar!). I had a free blog on wordpress.com containing my work done in my fulltime job, which I was able export and integrate with this wordpress.

I have added a lot of my recent freelance work, dating it at the time the work was completed, and created portfolio pages containing a select few pieces. If you find any bugs, or problems with the site, please let me know. I’m expecting a few problems to come up but will not know what they are until I get a few users to test it out

Thanks
