"We need a website"

Right. The web design forum here needs a website, for posting all sorts of advice, links, news etc. A "community" website. It should be interactive and fully display the best of our skills. So:

Coding - Me, cjh and ajh. Basically anyone who can.

Site design and layout - Reaper and Tyla. You guys work together on it. Give me a final layout as a Fireworks file and I'll take it from there

Content - Andy/Bob, and everyone else here

We need some webspace, I'll get some at Freedom2Surf once their servers come back online. They're a very good server for what we want to do. If anyone else wants to help out, that's great.

Any more suggestions would be welcome.

Where should I send the code to you??

Great stuff. When I get it all sorted I'll put it in.

Take a look and tell me if we should include it within the Free Scripts area?? It's just a little script which will tell a Freeola user what their Root Directory is.

OK, great.

Oh yeah.. where DO you work?

Hints and tips, no problem, as for a design... not on your nelly...

I currently work for New Media Unit at Blackwell Publishing as well as feelancing for Stop Press and My own business.

Very noce, very nice *envy*.

Are you sure you don't want to do a design? If not, we'd very much appreciate some hints and tips if you have some spare time at work.

Oh yeah.. where DO you work?

(ex-employer, but still have stuff on line on their site!!)

My personal site is "officially" offline due to a slight court order requesting me to remove certain sections of the site, this is a minor problem and I'm currently in the middle of a huge over haul!! "un-officially" bit's still do work, just under specific URL's - **Warning for Blogger users... Don't upset people using an online journal especially if your involved in an access battle for a child!!**

TT4N!!

Would the Web Space be a regular sign-up type, or did you say Andy might be sorting something else out??

I was jus twondering, as if we use the same Servers as other Freeola users, then we could include something in the PHP Free Scripts area where user can Upload the Script to their Site there and then, what do ya' think??

I don't know.. it looks OK. I've done better maybe. Also, as for this "client list" of yours, I'd like to see it. Your website IS offline, don'tchaknow. Anyway, if you want to blow us away that's fine. Go, knock yourself out! :-D

*cough* skill *cough* As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!

Trust me, there isn't any skill there to compete against. And remember... all you've seen from me is two 10 minute efforts... If I really wanted to put my mind to it, I'd blow you away mate...!;-) My portfolio and client list says it all!!
