Congrats! Good luck with it, too.

This first thing I did was change out my page header - I think a customised one looks much better.

Have fun!

Best of luck to you, Daniel! You have some beautiful images in your gallery.

Jeffrey, you mentioned website header. Do you have any advice on how to make one? My attempts have not worked out well.

I made mine in Photoshop, Patricia.

If you do not have it, http://pixlr.com/ offers the same tools for free and you can create it directly in your browser - no software to download.

@Patricia, Jeffrey is right about header makes first impression :) Make a bunch never have too many...rotate to maintain interest.

Best of luck, Daniel! I'm not a huge fan of the AW, as it stands, but look forward to the upcoming changes. Any online portfolio has great value, IMO!


@Paricia -- Header dimensions are 970px X 100px. Having a custom header really does make all the difference in your AW presentation!
I'm not in the habit of changing mine out without compelling reason; I always want potential buyers to recognize where they are, if they stumble in more than once. :-)

Do you need good luck or your friend for that matter

From where I stand it seems I haven't got a penny to scratch my backside with
And I must have something stuck oh me shoe

But well, as it once used to be said, here's looking at you

Ah that's great, that's great, so it is.

BTW I would love to feature "The Trilogy" so I would.

Not trying to be funny but it relinds me of Clint Eastwood.

Before, you know, I did not try to upset you, quite the reverse I thought it might bring a little smile on your face but people do not alwats understand things in the same ways.

Here is one that will bring a smile on your face.

My gandfather was one of the funniest men I have ever met, he was an old soldier who sevived the First World war, he had a great love of animals and during his time in the army he was in the Royal Artillery and commanded a team of horses that pulled the artillery around the battlefirld.

Once he left the army the places he lived in was filled with pets. cats and dogs mainly and he also kept champion racing pigeons.

One cat he named sooner.

On occation someone from around about would come in the house and say, Mr Jackson why did you call ye cat sooner?

And he would dryly take his pipe from his mouth and reply, because it would sooner s*it on the carpet than get outside.

And so there ye gan, that is for luck as well, so they say.


_____

Good luck
All the best
And I pray
That one day
You don't just get a trickle
But a flood
_____


PS

Don't live where it rains a lot

And then I will have to pray

It's never cool

And always hot

_____

Dear me

Wherever it is you live I just pray that you are a star

And

I am sure you

Ah you're a start I will feature it in one of my Christian Theme Blogs - possibly the one on the Cross - But I would go weak at the knees it I could feature this here in my Comedy Cat Blog.

Check out the Blog at the Following link:

http://the--cross.blogspot.co.uk/

And the Comedy Cat blog is at the next link.

Plus let me know what you think.

I could have it done in no time but I did a poem earlier at the link below here in FAA and I am waiting to see if the guy there will give me the nod to include his photographs,
