Well when I eventually stop tampering :lol:

http://www.fs2004.co.uk

It's based on Wordpress and Zenphoto mashed together, it's a nice publishing combo. Nothings really in any order, so don't try to look chronologically just yet!

If you like, let me know what you think - what's good what's bad etc.

It's my first WP template so it's a learning process for me. I think it's all working though.

Hi Hinch :)

Don't know what the general concensus will be but I like your site. Nice and clear, uncluttered and easy to see whats available and to navigate around ;-)

Agree with Dave Matt

Too many sites start by trying to show off all the fancy things that the page making will allow and the end result is you can't follow anything.

This has the right balance of simplicity of use but enough 'design' to make it interesting.

Hinch,

I like your site very much...haven't got to the end of it yet, but already downloaded a few things...putting a shortcut on my desktop :)

Thanks for your comments - clear and concise is always the best. I have a test where I use my computer illiterate mother to see if she can use the site =) My (part-time) job is CSS for accessibility.

Wordpress has impressed me a lot, it's very developer friendly - though there are so many plugins that work flawlessly it looks as if i'm a bit late, oh well! There's still more work to do, I cleaned masses of useless formatting code but I keep finding more tut tut.

Looks good, one comment (if I may), I would prefer the links to open 'in a new page', as some links got me way off track and I had to back page like mad to get back to your site. Apart from that, its brilliant!

I've changed a few style bits, I noticed it was displaying incorrectly in IE and a few issues in Safari. Both have been fixed and some minor clean up :)

There's more content coming, I have a few reviews and lots of images to upload.
