    I might cut down the header area of the theme to make it more streamlined. It does waste a hell of a lot of space.

Just wanted to write a little update about where I am in life, some of you may remembered how I was when I first joined this community and how I have progressed and managed to learn various programming/coding techniques and have made two successful systems for McCodes.

I recently started a new apprenticeship program at a local multi-channel digital media company called GSB Associated Ltd, they have various large clients including people like Brighton & Hove City Council, Modelzone

Update on life.

by Dave Macaulay on 10-24-2011 at 11:33 AM
Hello everyone,

My activity on here has been limited over the past months due to me attempting to soldier on through college. It's not the most pleasurable experience I've encountered yet! But alongside I've been working on some very interesting projects.

The first is WebGamePoint which is now in it's beta stages while we check it's functionality is perfect for it's cause. I created this alongside Dayo because we both wanted to make a topsite... and it just worked?

Another update.

by Dave Macaulay on 09-05-2011 at 11:32 PM
Hello,

Well in my previous blogs I was talking about my custom server setup. Something went horrifically wrong with the DNS or something which caused a large number of people to not be able to access any of my sites. I looked into the issue but couldn't find a solution so for now I've moved everything onto a annual shared hosting package which should be more stable for things like my store while I use the VPS as a development/game server.

This all happened as I was

by Dave Macaulay on 08-23-2011 at 06:09 PM
Well as you may of seen in my last blog post (http://www.makewebgames.com/entry.ph...What-I-m-up-to) I was attempting to make a cleaner, more efficient hosting system to run my sites off.

After spending a few hours on working out everything I needed I got down to installing. Currently I'm just running the basics I need. Thats just Apache2, MySQL, PHP and an FTP server. I do also have webmin as a admin UI to make some tasks easier on myself, that's obviously along with phpmyadmin

Hey anyone who is bored enough to bother reading this!

I'm pretty bored so I thought I'd just document what my plans are for the next month or so to keep myself amused. Other then the obvious social life I try to managed alongside my online life.

My plan for the next few days is to get rid of the horrible software which is known as cPanel. Go for a simple, clean, less cluttered system only using the bare necessities to try to make a more efficient environment for all
