Bealers.com v10

Sunday, April 20, 2008

Today I put together the 10th iteration of Bealers.com which is a massive relief as it’s been on my to do list for 6 months+. Initially as I was going to use external help (and I had some great offers of assistance, thanks all) but in the end I simply used a pre-built theme. The Fresh [...]

Please redesign me!

Are you a designer? Do you fancy making this blog look less rubbish? If so please get in touch. Siftware is already in the process of getting re-done so I figured my personal site should get updated at the same time.

I’m a developer, I don’t mind - in fact, no, I *like* - coding but when it comes to doing stuff on my own site I’m rather hesitant and I prefer things that Just Work out of the box. I installed a new theme K2 last night and whilst it looks good I did have to [...]

Wordpress PHP syntax highlighting

I’ve been writing code in my spare time again and have been wanting to blog little snippets but Wordpress munges any code that I add into the post body. I googled for wordpress plugins and most didn’t support WP 2 or were a bit tame but then look what I found. The iG:Syntax Hiliter by [...]
