Slightly updated version of Website

The full Ampzone.com site is still on it's way, this slightly updated version is just preparing the way for it.

Progress of this website has been slow due to work I've been doing on other projects which are coming along well. Mainly I have been working with a group called Philtinium on a big web project launching this summer. I'll reveal more information about this in the future, but I'm looking forward to the launch.

In other news, I'm continuing to develop using Drupal which I hope to develop an release some modules for in the future. The more I learn about it, the better I find it is. I have an idea for another big project which I may build using Drupal in the near future. Drupal 7 released a short while back, still haven't had a chance to play about with it yet, but my initial look did not disappoint. Sticking to Drupal 6 at the moment though as certain key modules are not yet stable for Drupal 7 yet. I check the requirements of new projects against Drupal 7 first though so when something suitable comes along I will go with it.

My client Last Try Wines has been doing well. Their blog and twitter account are going strong and the site is beginning to establish itself. Plenty of ideas for future developments as well.

Sonic Cam Productions has launched their first full length Dr Who film which is really great and they've managed to include some amazing special effects. Updates are planned for their site very soon.

And City Access Training has gone through a few changes. I have worked on the site to significantly improve the design while changing the focus of the site to a particular area of the business. Having now settled on the content for the site, the design could be updated to really fit the content appropriately.

Hope to have Ampzone.com finished very soon now and to be blogging more frequently. I have plenty of thoughts, ideas and discoveries while working on projects so I really want to share them. And of course, I welcome feedback in the comments below. Feel free to disagree with me.

A late HAPPY CHRISTMAS

Apologies for the lateness of this. But a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS to EVERYONE.

Unfortunately the site isn't together enough to have a whole Christmas theme yet. But I hope to have one next year. If all goes to plan it will be an interesting year with this website. I have lots planned, but need to get a few core features finished first. I have at least 3 articles I want to write as soon as I have time. Plus an idea for a series of articles which I think could be very useful. You'll have to wait to see what it is all about though.

I'll end by wishing everyone a HAPPY NEW YEAR for Saturday.

Website Progress

The website is slowly coming together in between building sites for clients. Over the last week or so, I have added Twitter to the left sidebar, corrected a few CSS styling errors and added my portfolio. Next step is to create full services page. At the moment it's just the basic functionality which is being added, but there are some exciting additions coming in the not too distant future. The main feature needs to be a bit more complete before I reveal it, but a few of the other things to come are:
