It Works!

I spent the whole day yesterday trying to figure out why the address wasn't forwarding to my own domain name. I assumed it would simply take a while to swap. Looked at it with a clear head this morning and realised I was forwarding it to an address that doesn't exist any more. Silly me.

But, now my website works and is fully functional. There's still a few pieces of work that need to put up and the galleys to be ordered. (Not to mention updating my business card to reflect my domain name.)

Swish!


Website update. Still with my DA portfolio, which I will be hopefully be setting with my own domain name some time next week. I'm not sure why but I quite like the layout of the "about me" page.

Edit: Registered www.Leighwortley.co.uk and forwarded it to my DA portfolio but it may take a few days to stick. (hopefully)

Business Card Variations!

Trying a couple of different variations of my business card after Paul pointed out that the illustration montage was a little too distracting for the front.

Variation 1:






Variation 2:


Variation 3:



Business Card Final!

This is the business card I went for in the end:







It might need a little tightening up and the print quality isn't the best, but I quite like it.

Business Cards!

Next time I'll remember to add crop marks.
Just 7 variations in black and white. I'm rather fond of the last one at the moment. Black and white to keep down printing costs (perhaps printed on coloured card) I'm not sure yet.










DA portfolio is a place holder for my website. It'll be great when I ahve one up and running but for now, the DA one will do. It's not a free service, you can enable it when you subscribe to DA (which I do as I'm on it all of them time and I dislike adverts...) Another good thing about the DA portfolio is that if I choose to, I can set my own domain name without the "daportfolio" bit.

DA Portfolio

So I keep forgetting I have a Deviant Art Portfolio. I'm currently using it instead of a website (Which is something I hope to work on over Reading Week). It's basic and a bit boring but it's a great place to showcase my work.
