WELCOME TO MY TEST PAGE

Over the last few days I’ve spent some time on this site to learn a little more about it’s layout, functions and how best to offer you material of interest going forward.

Morning everyone!

Over the last few days I’ve spent some time on this site to learn a little more about its layout, functions and how best to offer you material of interest going forward. Like anything in life, these things take time and no little confusion, so it’s been something of a struggle to wrap my aged brain around the multiplicity of areas that this site offers as a baseline, and then in addition to that, once it is upgraded and further developed. 

So this morning I thought I’d post a simple update that tests out some of those newly learned areas, and then see how they functions on an actual, albeit, test post. The idea is to gauge appearance and functionality. Is the newer look working? Can you easily see images and the like? Is it easy to read and are the additional blocks giving you more material to enjoy? You will see that much of this is repeated from earlier posts: it’s simply here to allow me to understand the page better in real-time and then use you guys as guinea pigs to test it all out. As usual, you can comment on this post, below.

So here is that test update – I hope it looks okay.

THE ALL-IMPORTANT SUBSCRIBERS BUTTON!

I trialed this last week, so it’s good to see that it works! This is the way that you can be kept informed about updates that appear on this website. Yes, I add links to Facebook and Twitter pages, but this is really the best way of bypassing those platforms and bringing you straight to this page. All you have to do is drop your email address into the box and it will add you to the subscribers list. If you are already subscribed, it will confirm that for you! Well, what are you waiting for?!

PLEASE SUBSCRIBE!

THE CENTURY SERIES: AN ON-GOING COLLECTION

This will be a new format for images. Rather than cluttering up the page with individual shots, I plan to use this more up to date slideshow. This will work perfectly for galleries of completed projects. Scroll through the images to see what I mean!

TAMIYA ARCHER

Another way of presenting images. This will allow clear presentation of pictures with accompanying text. I like this way more than dropping the caption under each picture.

IF YOU’VE ENJOYED THIS POST, YOU MIGHT WANT TO SCROLL THOUGH SOME OF MY EARLIER UPDATES. THERE’S PLENTY MORE TO SEE!

I get the sense that visitors here see links to an individual post, but then don’t go on to look at previous work. All being well, this will reveal other areas to check-out and read, leading subscribers and first-time visitors to see this entire website as a complete resource, rather than just a collection of disparate updates.

PLEASE GET IN TOUCH: I’D BE DELIGHTED TO HEAR FROM YOU!

All of my updates have areas that allow you to add your own comments, ask questions, or just generally get involved. This little section will show some of those comments by visitors who have read and commented on previous posts. You might want to begin by commenting on this one!
