I really do you know.
Anyway, yes as the title says I love CSS3, some of the things it can do are fantastic, just a shame I’m only really learning about them now, but oh well, work leaves me with so little time to do anything for myself anymore (especially without my desktop computer, I may have my laptop, but if I’m doing some really serious work I just prefer doing it on my main desktop computer) I just can’t look into all these things. Oh well.
Anyway I have now finally caught up with myself in terms of things like CSS3 and adding it onto the site. I’ve got rid of a number of images that acted as the rounded corners to the top of area boxes (like at the top and bottom of the news posts), thus saving the loading times for that, plus I’ve also started to use images that are actually transparent, rather than filling in the transparent bits and then making the images look like they’re transparent when they aren’t.
As a result of that as well, if you happen to be using Internet Explorer 6 you will have seen by now that you get a panel appear telling you to get a different browser. I added this simply because I do not wish to support such an antique browser now, especially when it can’t cope with the majority of the W3C web standards that are being used on this site! That and IE6 just isn’t really that safe or good of a browser to be using, especially now. So no offense to IE6 users, but I just don’t want to support it anymore, time to move on and embrace some new standards.
Anyway work is being done on the site *slowly* and they will be coming in phases over the next few months, so hopefully in that time I’ll have some more interesting things to show you than a random post like this one, but we’ll have to wait and see.

Hello everyone,
Well just a quick update on how things are going and some random stuff.
First of all the new website design is coming along very well indeed. I know what I want to do with the site and what I want it to look like too and it’s working nicely. The restructuring of the site has been sorted, so I now know which pages will be kept, merged, scrapped and whatever. Also I will be separating the Neon Legends stuff onto it’s own little mini-site as I’d rather have it all there together on it’s own little site than here with everything else I do.
Finally, and on a random note, I would like to draw everyone’s attention to this:
For those of you who are not aware what this is about, I’ll explain a little: NiGHTS into Dreams was a game for the SEGA Saturn and one which is my personal favourite game ever (yes that’s right, I like it more than Sonic the Hedgehog!), NiGHTS however has not had a lot of love from SEGA recently and while he was in SEGA SuperStars Tennis, he is apparently not going to be in All Star Racing… this makes me sad and I would advise everyone of you who comes to my site to follow the link on the above image and help get NiGHTS into ASR in some way or another
Sumo Digital (the company making the game) already know how NiGHTS fans feel, but SEGA need to know too, so please, even if you don’t know about NiGHTS help him get into ASR and then go look up his Saturn game (or the Wii one, but that’s not as good as the original!).
I thank you for taking the time to read my plea and hope that you will all do your part and help out the NiGHTS fans.

Well hello there everyone,
Okay I’ll be the first to admit it, I haven’t done much to the site for a few monts now, but that’s not to say that I’m doing nothing. Far from it in fact, I have plenty of stuff lined up to do still, it’s just having a chance to sit down and get everything done that I want to.
However I am planing on making time to do a load of stuff sometime soon… though one thing I definitely need to do is find my most recent copy of the site and pages to work from (as I have copies in three different places and can never remember which is the most up to date!) and I shall get the updates done when I can, but they are coming.
In the meantime have some completely random and off topic stuff
Enjoy!
