Website Editing

abbyglover.co.uk is a lot better now!

I've been playing around with it, and I think that now I have a better understanding of what I'd like to do, I've been able to pick and categorise the imagery that I use more effectively.
I've also finally got the hang of using the Squarespace platform (I know it's easy to use, but it takes me a while to figure things out sometimes.)

So I've added my logo, colour scheme and fonts.
I didn't use Times New Roman this time, as I have been doing with my promotional material. This is because I thought it looked too chunky on the page, so I opted for something more delicate. It was called Sorts Mill Goudy. In italics this font matches the whispy-ness of my logo, this is why I chose it as a uniform font for my site.
I also worked out how to get drop down menus on the navigation bar, which is useful because I was worried about having too many sections in the menu.

There is still a bit of work to do, but I'm mainly happy with it. I'd like to make it so that each page has a mall slide show gallery that flicks through a small selection of images at the top, then a grid gallery underneath which will show all of the images, and they will be enlargeable.

I also want to expand on the images/ categories shown when 603 progresses enough.
