New logo, new look
I’ve not tinkered with the site for some time – I think the last time was messing about with the Flickr widget in the sidebar almost a year ago while I was meant to be revising for my finals – so I thought I’d have a little play around and produce an actual logo for socialphoto. It was pretty simple to do in Gimp, even considering my otherwise complete lack of skills. (The only thing that annoys me about Gimp is that it opens in X11.)

Of course, adding it into the header and removing the previous stuff in the header should have been completely easy. Except, of course, it ended up not being quite so simple, after a few minor CSS quibbles I had. I think it’s pretty much sorted now, although in Firefox and IE the logo has a noticeable white frame, which doesn’t appear in Safari and Chrome. Why that happens, I’m not entirely sure – it’ll get ironed out in time, I hope.
Anyway, I have a few more plans for the site to get done in the next couple of months: firstly to move it to a blog.socialphoto.co.uk subdomain (which given wordpress and all the plugins I have may not be entirely easy), and to make myself a nice little front page with bells and whistles to boot. I can’t promise it’ll be done soon, but hopefully it will be done at some point.
