It has been a busy few days and I’m not sure I know when it will end. For some time, and I mean some time – years really, I’ve been threatening to rewrite a history web site and I’m now doing it. There was no plan other than one day I thought it would be a good idea. This was in the beginning of November and now I’m really pulling things together but it is really hard work.
It really is rewarding making graphics for the site…the only thing is that I’m a bit of a perfectionist and so spend far more time on things than I should do. Coupled with my having to refresh/relearn my limited HTML skills things are taken a long time. At least I’m a lot happier with the look and feel of the site – many sites I feel are just too messy and don’t follow the simple maxim – just because you can doesn’t mean you should. The one final hurdle is that I suffer from a form of word blindness – whether it is dyslexia or some form of problem I don’t know. However when I’m proof reading the text I have take it very slowly – one paragraph at a time. So I’m just about on target for the relaunch in January next. We’ll see how far I miss that deadline by!!
In the mean time I have found time to do one or two other things – perhaps why this is taking so long.
Nothing can compare to roll the dice.
