CheShA http://www.chesha.com Tue, 12 Oct 2010 17:45:20 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 en Site Update & New Mix http://www.chesha.com/2007/12/24/site-update-new-mix/ http://www.chesha.com/2007/12/24/site-update-new-mix/#comments Mon, 24 Dec 2007 15:13:53 +0000 CheShA http://www.chesha.com/2007/12/24/site-update-new-mix/ The DJ set from the Kela gig is now available on the choonage page; not the usual but an hour and fifteen minutes warming up from B Boi Breakz through some JumpUp and finishing off with a couple of CheShA specials to get the crowd fired up, which all went down well (even if I say so myself).

I’ve also upgraded various parts of the site today with the net result that the image galleries are a bit broken and probably will be until I get off my lazy fat arse and fix them which knowing my track record could be months (How long have the article pages been borked? Who knows), but hopefully will be over the Christmas break. Finally, according to some web “professionals”, the site is now fully Web 2.0 compliant because I’ve added a reflection to the main logo image. How very of-the-now.

I’ll be warming up for this gig with a hip hop vibe, looking forward to playing a B Boi set.killa kela flyer

Minotaur is another horror short, this time based around “one man’s internal and external struggle as he awakens to find himself trapped in a room with no escape” and represents a significant leap forward for the Nerverack team and from what i have seen is somewhat of an opus.

I look forward to hearing your insults! There is some fairly gratuitous self-pooting going on but what did you expect? ;) The plan is to add
an extra area with “personal” pics too, so all my friends can see stuff I’ve collected but since this is a dual purpose portfolio and personal site, I though I would segregate them from things I made, which will mean making it “members only”!!

If there were any kind of pattern or similarity between them, I suppose I could call it an album but there isn’t. So I won’t. So there.

Anyone that is seeing some pages a bit squiffy should wise up and get a decent standards-compliant browser immediately! The site has long been in the making, this should really be termed either version 1.0 (since it’s the first version in around 5 years that I’m happy with as being ‘complete’) or version 8,000,000.0 (since there have been so many complete revamps begun but that have lost steam before being put out to pasture without ever seeing the cold light of day). But I’m happy with this system for now, it is flexible and will let me do everything I need to do. I’m looking forward to finally putting all that content I have stored up somewhere where it can be appreciated.

The problem I have is in trying to create a CMS’ed site without looking like a tacky CMS! I think I’ve done OK so far, but the blog posts could still do with some work. If anyone’s out there reading this, please please let me know what you think and any ideas you might have for how to improve this.

Here’s looking forward at a new beginning for some self-publicity opportunities; maybe I can get back to writing some tunes now!
