Blimey, just been arranging my work load, projects, etc. and I've got loads!

Pocketmonkey.co.uk - getting my baby up and running as a ickle widdy web design business. Layout: [URL]http://www.threecircles.co.uk/pocketmonkey[/URL]

MonkeyWorld - An extension of pocketmonkey, but a bit more fun. Basically a chat room, but with the visual front of a load of villages on an island. User's get to join clans, collect bananas as currency, buy weapons, and once powerful enough, attack and take other villages! Had this on the boil for years, but only recently got the skills to pull it off. Bit like an MMORPG, kinda. Anyone wanna be a Silverback?

Audiosuite.co.uk - A domain I bought when I started my Uni course, but am now going to use as a final year project. Will be a resource for audio tech students to get articles and info and stuff (I got fed up with the lack of info available when researching, so decided to make my own).

ModProjects.co.uk - My mate's site, which I started but never got round to finishing. Will definitely do this soon, as it's an excellent domain name, which would be a shame to waste.

TiredHippo.com - Another mate, another site. Complete crap at the moment, probably the first thing I ever made with PHP. Will return in time for his next birthday as probably a forumy kinda thing for him and his mates. highlights will be the "Hippoart", and "Hippoboard".

Actual paid work - Got about 3 or 4 sites that I'm working on, some connected, some for mates, should be good, and it's keeping me very busy. hopefully make a bit of cash too, which would be nice.

I've basically got tons and tons of ideas, which I could never do, but now can. got a few other 'surprise' projects too, but that would be telling...

Meh, my first kinda client-y type site. Thing,

[URL]http://www.synae.com/snap.php[/URL]

And a Synae.com that *won't* completely die on 56k, yay! (even if everything still needs lined up, and tables are being completely ghey)

Go design! Go net! Go..little..sleep....

MonkeyWorld seems a great idea. I really hope it works out.
I am just getting ready to start a web-site which will showcase my programs:
www.hack-the-badger.com
Does not work yet, getting DNS Address' can be a biatch.

I went through that with Tyla the other day, and I'll probably change it either to Verdana, like the rest of the page, or crisp it up a bit. Pixelfonts are ace. Like the new layout, by the way, keep working on that.

I've had about 4 or 5 domains from SR: Lukenet-v1.co.uk, digifelch.co.uk (which may come back if I've got time), audiosuite.co.uk & pocketmonkey.co.uk - probably too many, as I never do anything proper with them.

Pocketmonkey is my baby, but I can never deside whether to do fun or serious with it. Now it's serious, but I want fun too, dammit!

The link text on Pocket Monkey seems to be too big, it just doesn't seem as 'crisp' when viewed on a flatscreen monitor. Verdana size 10 looks nice and crisp but the links font looks quite, um, blurry...

I've been working on making my site again, because it seems too boring and crap, plus listing files straight from the directory has a few problems.

I'm looking at changing the whole thing to MySQL but it's going to take quite a while to add every single file into the database and comment on it. When it's done however it will be great.

I've started on the new design, [URL]http://www.phi11ip.com/test[/URL], which I think looks better than the one I've got at the moment, I'm probably going to move the boxes around a bit though. I'll sort out Funfiles.co.uk too when I get the chance, I can probably link the two sites together to use the same database but I'll have to look into that later.

I'm also using a domain I got to make up a small portfolio site, I'll just use it to store templates for people to use. If people use the template, they can link back to me. Linking back to me means a higher page rank. A higher page rank means more hits. More hits means more bandwidth. More bandwidth means the server runs out of bandwidth...

It's all planned.

And do you fin you've bought a few domains that seemed like a good idea at the time, but now you've got nothing to do with them?
