Face lift

Hark, if you will, at the funky new banner that adorns the top of each page of this Mostly Official And Almost Entirely Pointless™ website. The old one was nice but a bit sparse so I decided to try and make it a bit more interesting. Being both a writer and a musician (in thought if not often in deed) I wanted the imagery in the banner to reflect these two major artistic pursuits... so I filched a picture of a mixing desk off the interweb and stuck some transparent text over it. Then I stuck my ugly mug in there too because this is a website about me after all.

But that is not all. Get thee over to the noise section for I have installed a swanky new Flash jukebox music player thingie. Simply select a tune, hit the play button and enjoy the streaming aural goodness and the little graphic equalizer that bears absolutely no relation to the music being played (but it still looks nice).

I have to admit that I am nowhere near technically proficient enough to have built such a cool gadget myself. I nicked it (legitimately, of course) from a very clever chap called Jeroen Wijering so go check him out too.
