Guilfin need a re-design

Hope you all enjoyed the ‘fluffy bunny’ card I sent! It came from a site, where I was spoiled for choice.

I was trying to show it as better example, than the crap photo, that otherwise represented fluffyness. Toby thinks I’m getting at his rabbit cos its ears where down and it was magenta and out of focus, contrast was lousy and the whole aspect, generally fucked up. It was very noble of him, to stick up for his fluffy friends.

Still, if you’d like to sign up for the ‘photographic and fluffy image making’ short course I’m hoping to get a grant to start up, then I’m sure we can improve you…..

gosh, have i started something? I think that if you are going for a re-design etc, you should start from who are we, and what are we trying to do! It really is such a spread of folks involved, and tash’s thoughts on the subject, are that the ‘scene’ has become much fragmented, lost direction, and needs a hand to remind itself, what the fuck it’s all for!

You have a fair sized internet space and ‘shop window’ for the ideas that were trying to punt out. Think a really simple one picture of nothing inparticular and little explanation is fine. If your just a gig listing. But your not. Think your database must be quite large now, can things from there, be ‘rotated’ to a front position every week. Same with thumbnails, have no idea how easy any of this is, but when you’ve finished your, you can do mine 

It’s only serious’ enthusiasts’ that get further back in websites I think, and sometimes things need pushing forward, rather than ‘on demand’. Have had the same debate myself, what is it I’m trying to show, and ended up with a list. Any stories, graphics, personal accounts, that enourages people to realise that there are others involved, outside of there own set.

Suppose we’re all doing it already but still don’t know what ‘good practice’ is with this lark!

This is as far as I’ve got I trying to say what I’m trying to ‘deal’ with. How much have I missed, do you think?
