Hello, I've went on a venture and created a new hand-coded website for all my stuff. I've gotten board with my own RW themes and decided to try my skills and actually managed to create my own website that's fairly easy to manage. It's right here. Warning to those who haven't made the change from IE to another better browser, IE 6 will show nasty blue backgrounds on every images and mix up margins and navigation padding, IE 7 images fine, messes up small navigation li a images, in general though there are custom tool tips that I implemented and are blue and white when hovering over certain links but if you use IE it might now show those backgrounds sometimes. Firefox or Safari recommended. I've also figured out the Custom Flickr API badge, simpler than you would think, but managing the CSS to make it look like a thumbnail with a picture you made is a bit more of a challenge and took some local machine tests to figure out. I've also got to get to work on 2 themes that I've been working on for clients. One a german film company by the name Licht Produktions located at, www.licht-film.de and another client. My website hopefully if I manage to create something worth of value, I'll create another page for other things such as Flash, and maybe look into Lightbox and Carousel javascript and make a more fun to mess with page for my portfolio, among other things. And I've learned how to make respectable small 15x15 pixel icons for my RW themes, hopefully they'll make me proud once I make another theme. I also seized the chance of becoming an affliate of RWT, meaning everytime they buy a theme of theirs through my website, I get a 25% cut of the money, so far, only $3. It's better than nothing. I've got to also find out how to Crawl dot mac websites and look up some information on SEO to make it easier to find through search engines such as Google, Ask, Yahoo search, and more. Also, there are free Open Source Templates at my website too. Just  go to templates. If you need help email me. The templates do not include much documentation and require basic to intermediate knowledge (sometimes) of HTML & CSS, but generally are very easy to use it. If you need help learning these, Htmldog.com is the best place to start, and makes it easy to understand. Mootools.net also offers a wonderful javascript framework for those adept at it. It's fairly easy to learn the framework sets itself up for you. Just don't forget to Dom.ready() event! If you don't nothing will work! Other than that, I don't have much too say, I just got to make a new theme so I can make my old website just a blog so RW Updates website doesn't get confused. That's it really.
