Out with the old site...

Why hello there. You may be wondering what I'm getting up to. You may not. I'm guessing probably the latter, but either way I'm going to tell you. Work is still very much going on in the world of Toli.

Plenty of sleep deprived nights, brainstorming sessions with... with myself, re-teaching myself the mechanics of web page programming, PHP and all that other malarkey. It's all quite boring stuff, but necessary in the process of overhauling my little home page here - which is what I'm keeping myself busy with at the mo'.

I think simplicity is key. I know it is. Plus, with my little technical know-how, it's not really a choice. Toli.co.uk is going to have to be about simplicity.

Please don't be scared about all this technical talk - I'm not changing this blog from being about me talking about my drawings to my latest IT accomplishments, it's just at the moment the art is second priority to getting this web page overhauled. It can't look too enticing to visitors having news updates from 2006 on the main page. I think lack of activity will pretty much kill a web page. People want to know you're there, and you're current. If not, they piss off.

I intend to update the main layout, totally simplify the gallery as there is too much fancy code on there at the moment and I've forgotten how to update! I used to be a wiz with the PHP coding, but these days I cannot be bothered with it. I'd rather draw.

I will keep this blog here. Same url, same purpose: to update you, informally, with my what's going on in regards to my artistic creations, but please embrace yourself for a new toli.co.uk with a BIG FAT GALLERY full of my more recent work. I AM EXCITED FOR MYSELF!

I won't say it's going to happen in the near future as things never do whenever I promise that. 

But it will be happening. Probably in bits. Most evenings, after work. :)
