Good­bye Blog­spot, Hello Word­Press

I moved my blog over to Word­press from Blog­spot today, import­ing all the old entries and comments. Blog­ger was getting increas­ingly outdated, with not much vari­ation in design possible, and since they upgraded the edit­or it star­ted to do weird things to the text, even if the html view showed that not much was going on. Some of those issues have cropped up when I’ve impor­ted the entries here, but with over 300 old entries it’s going to take me a while to fix them by hand, so please be patient.

New website

So recently I’ve been spend­ing a lot of frus­trat­ing time re-doing my website. I wanted it to work/​look the same on computers, phones and tablets and be simple and unob­trus­ive and just work. It turns out making simple things that work prop­erly is quite diffi­cult. I was going for “so unob­trus­ive you barely notice it’s there” not “made on Geocit­ies in 1998”. Anyway, I got people with vari­ous differ­ent pieces of equip­ment to test it and it all seems to work fine now. The artwork galler­ies are a little empty at the moment, but hope­fully that will be remedied in the next few weeks with lots of new work.
