New look and layout on the Tillerman Beads site!

It's been a bit of a struggle, learning my way around the ins and outs of Wordpress, but after having used it on the Mancunium website, it seems to be the best way to maintain a number of differing sites, because the underlying structure is the same so it takes less time to get into the swing of editing or updating.

I've decided to keep the blog in place on Blogger for now, mostly because it's an established blog, it has followers (thank you!) and is linked with the blogging system on Facebook, so it would be a bit of a mess-around to shift the blog Yet Again.

Still, it's been a good couple of days, website up without much hassle, widgets and plugins and SEO and everything else that is a temptation when I search for 'new toys' to install. The gallery looks like it's going to be a useful tool, too. Putting pictures of the beads into the galleries becomes easier each time. That means the gallery lives in the same place as the rest of the site, and that's great for updating too.

A work in progress, but definitely not a work in doubt.
