Marksmedia.co.uk has left the building!

Anyone who has recently typed in www.marksmedia.co.uk might have been expecting to see their browser filled with a lot of purple surrounding my old portfolio website. - That has now gone, welcome to the clean and fresh new look!

I'll be updating the site on a regular basis so keep dropping by to see new work, photos and blog posts!

I still own the following domains, but these all now point here;

www.marksmedia.co.uk

www.marklittle.co.uk

www.fusionweld.com

Day 4..5 and a bit?!

Ok, time as usual has passed by so quickly, it is bordering the start of March and less work has taking place then expected. Nevermind, I have decided to keep the pages of the site short in number and spares in design, so I can fill them up with content and tweak the look at a later stage.

In case anyone is wondering, I am using Squarespace to build my website, which is a fantastic online tool. You pay for the hosting and content space per month and In return you get a constantly updating and improving website building tool. Check out some examples here.

Well a dull update, but hey ho! Keep coming back to see the progress!

Day 2

Day 2 will involve much less text! I've had a quick play with some logos and after some "shower thinking" this morning, I've decided I want a clean all white website with a large high contrast look.

So here is the look of the website before I get busy with some whiteness!

And here is the end result from day 2, the laptop is about to run out, so I'm off!

New Website

Well it's Monday night on the 15th January, 2010, I've had a hectic and tiring day at work and (about an hour ago) decided to go to bed early. However I couldn't help thinking I need to update my website (formally www.marksmedia.co.uk), and I've had this domain setup with a Squarespace account for over 2 years! So I'm out of bed and writing this!!

I'm 25 years old and a product designer, spending most of the day as I am now starring at a screen pushing at buttons. Normally at this point of deciding I want to create a new website I would sit down and research what is out there, draw up some ideas, etc. I then thought it would be pretty cool to document the creation of the site and blog it! - Perhaps it will create an interesting story and something cool for you to follow.

So, this is what my screen currently looks like;

It's pretty much blank, nothing to see here, zip. Just an old image created 2 years ago with my brother David (the name FusionWeld was "sparked" up between us as idea to create a joint site with our different skills in art and design coming together and a bit of fun, unfortunately neither of us had the time).

So, I guess the next step; form a list of stuff I want to stick into the site;

1. Designs I like, product, architectural & electrical

2. What I am up to (this blog & perhaps I enter the world of twitter)

3. Interesting design related things my friends are up to

4. A portfolio of my designs

5. Some photography and art of mine

6. General other geeky things that I would like to share

Better get cracking then! Wish me luck!
