cameronqueen.com / live

The newest incarnation of cameronqueen.com is now live and functioning at 99%. I have a small portfolio, some of my favourite web links, the beginnings of a store and some other stuff onboard the main site pages. Also, there are external links to this blog, my Facebook and Flickr presences and more.

Design and the style of the layout has ended up as an interesting mix of clean lines and pinstripes, mixed up with organic painted shapes and text details. The design is a little grungier (despite the ‘Web 2.0′ colour palette) than my usual style but it all generated out of a few key ideas so I hope there was something right at the start. I’ve particularly enjoyed learning mouseOvers and using scripts o change backgrounds and so on. The furthest I’d been in coding was playing around with WP theme layouts so this was a learning curve and definitely fun to do.

Code is art is a phrase I can respect after doing a project like this, especially as just keeping things in a logical order is hard enough for an HTML / css beginner. If I find the time I will go back through each pages source and sort it out properly as they are probably offensive to most web designers in their current state…

Thoughts, ideas and feedback on the site all welcome, as ever.
