ParticipantDo you know what I would like to see on the front page ???
The mission statement…..the bit about we don’t have a boss…..there is no ranking…..we are here to enjoy and not take too seriously……once I read that It really appealed to me and I knew this was the place I wanted to be my internet home.
I think that should be the front page, with all the other stuff stuck in a news column or something……just my tuppence

ParticipantI haven’t been on the homepage for a while, but I’m presuming the site is built around a CMS? If so, I’m happy to help. I’m pretty experienced with most of the CMS’s, and have built many static HTML sites. It could do with a good tidy up though.

YAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY
It’s a wordpress site mate.
You could nip up, update the wordpress installation, slap a new template on, perhaps a few custom bits here and there to give it an XDC look, rehash the pages/create a few new posts.
I’ve been pretty busy of late, taking the time to learn PHP/MySQL from the ground up, working on a massive website but have a lot to learn such as login sessions/cookies/complicated SQL queries etc.

ParticipantNo problemo, if you email or PM, me the WP log-in, I’ll have a look. I’ll have a dig around for some of my PHP/MySQL reference books that may be of interest, but if you get stuck with any of that stuff let me know as well. I am currently getting deeply into my SEO stuff which is basically the E-Commerce version of dodgy hell.

Lol, I’ve done a shit ton of SEO stuff. Ranked many site but could never come up with a good enough idea to cash in on it.
I’m working through a super exciting book, just got a bit to go :).
There is no WP login ATM, you’ll need to run a SQL command to reset the password, which I keep meaning to do. I’ll get around to it and PM you
