A site update has rolled in!

Finally, after a week of being tired at work, and taking a moment to unwind, I have updated my site again (and my CV upload). I've applied some of the things I learned from the UX courses and learning material, also worked a tiny bit on the SEO, even though my plan is to hand this page out on my CV to be checked out directly.


The site now has title text with the logo instead of only being in the home page, that was a big must! The menu bar has been updated to fit the site theme a little better and gone is the black line that was used as the default separator, it served its purpose, but with the new look, it isn't needed anymore.

I've tweaked the UX page to be a little better to read and optimised the overall page size down without skimming any of the content off or lowering font sizes, I'm quite pleased with that. In fact, I've added MORE text to the first section.

The blog page has had some slight layout changes to be more concise - the default seemed to make the main blog page into a giant wall of text, showing entire entries instead of previews, that is now gone!


So far, all my site updates have been about the addition of content to throw at my portfolio. Now, it's about optimising my portfolio, doing a little bit of web design again and actually making this worth looking at long enough to get any information out of it. So, this blog post will be both a site and a UX post, go me!


There is one thing that I cannot seem to get to work out right with this editor, though. Whenever I update the mobile version of my UX page to not look horrible, it completely scrambles the desktop page. It just seems this one page does not want to agree with both desktop and mobile. I suppose if I had my own web developer, instead of an external online-only tool with its own rules, I'd have this fixed much more easily, just throw a design together and say "Here's how it needs to look, I trust you to figure out the code part."
