i just totally managed to break what was to be the main blog for my site. i am such a noob sometimes its unreal!
Ive been having trouble recently after purchasing some software that i was assured was html5 ready and i'd be able to do amazing things with it.
it turns out that those amazing things are simply redesigning a handful of presets without giving you the ability to actually create anything amazing. it is fabulous if you want a static website that just shows your pages and impresses visitors from 2006!
i really hate software that doesnt let you be creative! so as it stands my website sucks. it is impossible to view on anything less than a desktop and loads like its being delivered by dial-up.
so Prepare for Jam 3.0!!!
I am going to be coding this over the next few weeks before i delete the old crap.
written tutorials will be replaced by a summary on the site to keep everything clean and to the point. The huge text walls will be consigned to PDF documents that you can view online or download so you can follow along without having to be online. as a PDF you'll be able to have it on your kindle or other e book reader as well so you're not restricted to storing it on your regular mobile device.
i am aiming to code a dynamic home page, doing away with traditional headers and nav bars etc. not quite sure how that is going to work with the lesson pages yet though, i will have to see what i can come up with.
the main site will be tranfered to its own sub domain as it should have been from the start, so unless you bookmarked the home page then i'm afraid some of your links might break. sorry but thats just the way it is. one of my main things i will need to do is work on the 404 page so you can be led back to the main page easily enough. currently my 404 is some generic spam page coutesy of my host provider. not ideal!
but that being said, the old site will remain online and available with tutorials as it stands until the new site is ready. and will be updated with video lessons as they emerge!
Speaking of lessons; I have a up and coming course on rigging, texturing and animating a car for vfx. so not only will you be learning how to do the usual turning of wheels and moving around a scene, i'm going to show you how to realistically blow that Mofo to bits! and compositing the whole shebang into your video clip!
totally awesome so keep a look out for that, as well as a few bits and bobs that i have floating around for you. hopefully i will be back fully teaching blender and Sfx shortly.
stupid web software :(
