New Website

[Ciphon]

Hello All!

I've been after my own website for a long while now, just to use as a "web presence" and to show to potential employers.

Well my girlfriend has designed me a site as I'm hopelessly colour blind, and just plain awful at design.

Anyway, here it is!

www.scratchbox.co.uk

I've still got a few things left to do, such as the search and I need to build the database that's going to store my blog posts. I also realize there is some white space around the facebook and mail icon's under the blog post at the moment - so that'll need to be removed.

So yeah, please take a quick look and let me know what you think

In Chrome the Grey Background that the bottom of the post where it has the "Comments" Text does not look right in Chrome.

Site should look a bit better when content is added

Show potential employers your steam profile?

Employers use Steam too

Cool, I've fixed that now! I've also got my blog posts coming out of a database now too (On my local machine).

Indeed! Employers like to have something they can relate too.. if they happen to play TF2 or just use Steam, then having a link to my Steam profile may well prove helpful to me acquiring the job .

Not sure about the fonts used and the header image needs some work to make it "pop". Its just a little bland imo.

Its a good starting point

Do what I do, go to template monster and browse for inspiration. Use the search. Or since it's a blog, browse themes for blogs and just get a 'feel' for how it works.
