I've just spent 3 hours getting a hit counter working on my site! I wish php was easier to troubleshoot, and more standardised. The final problem was some variables wanted "$variable" whereas others don't need the quotes. Scripts found on the net don't seem to work straight off and I've had to move through the whole script checking each variable to see if it works! Anyway..... the hit counter now works. I was planning to put some downloads on there but I'm taking a break now :)

New Site

After a long period of website inactivity, I have decided to remake the site to give it a more professional feel. This is a work in progress but I'm happy with how it's going so far.

I'm happy with my new artwork gallery section, a flash utility to display images. There is still a lot to put up, but it generally breaks down into adding 'more' to what I've already done like more images to the robotics section. Now that I have the main part done I can start on the tweaks. I did have a random image selector working on my Empire site, and I plan to integrate something like that again, to randomise the image in the main header so it's not just the Falcon all the time, and header images are very easy to do.
