User-friendly Tweaks

May 19, 2007

Yay, my brother has finally finished doing the tweaks that I planned out a few weeks back. These tweaks are designed to make this place a bit more user friendly. Its still not perfect but its still the most significant update since the release.

Here’s a run down of what has changed:

-modified site header
-modified site title now: PrimeScape – Games, Design, Life
-Technorati +fav button in the right coloumn
-new contact page with a form
-new subscribe category with little RSS images
-Blogroll has gone underneath Subscribe
-Some stuff has been removed from Meta
-Search has been moved over to the archives area
-MyBlogLog widget has been added
-links are now easily distinguishable
-an Opera tag has been added to the bottom of the page
-Add RSS sentence added to each post
-huge RSS logo has been removed
-the gap between the title and the entry has been reduced
-the comment relish plugin has been installed, need to test that one

I’m very happy with this update as it should hopefully encourage a greater readership and it also makes the site look much more complete. Although Chris hasn’t gotten everything perfect, all shall be fixed in due time. But for the time being its a very welcomed update. In terms of future updates there isn’t really too much beyond admin and a few other plugins and tweaks that probably won’t be noticed.

The site is going well with hits this month, we are looking at being on track with last month. Which is good because most of the hits from last month were from tutorial indexers. I’d be interested in what you think of the changes, so drop us a comment or send me an email via the new Contact form.

Finishing Up

April 12, 2007

Hello folks, another general update.

I’ve been spending a bit of my holiday time fine tunning PrimeScape. So let me run thru some changes that have occured recently. Some of this I might be repeating but anyways:

2 new categories have been added to the list, being Gaming and Tutorials. I’ve been adding tutorials into the tutorial category but it will take a while until all of them are in there. All of the gaming entries have been moved into gaming. I don’t want any categories crossing over so I have removed the game stuff out of Featured entries.

Chris has also fixed the side bar so that everything is correctly aligned and there are no dulicate names. Later today he’ll be adding an RSS link under meta and rearranging some things. Home has also been added under pages.

I’ve been advertising the site a bit to increase hits and it seems to have paid off. RSS subscribers are up and the hits are progressing steadily. I’ll try and keep this going as the content is great I just need more hits. So tell your friends!

I can’t really see any more major updates on the way as the site design is well on its feet. I’ll just be uploading more tutorials and advertising the site.

Few Quick Tweaks

March 8, 2007

Hey, I’ve just made a few light changes.

-I’ve removed some photos from some older entries
-I’ve added a last.fm recently played box in the about page

I’ve decided to only post a few photos from now on as theres not much point in me going crazy with them.

I’ll should also have the Adobe Creative CS2 Suite soon, it should arrive in the next day or so. So I have the chance to work on some overall future tweaks. I’m considering uploading some other stuff to PrimeScape as well as adding some new categories. So that may also be on the way.

I’m also setting up a to do list for Chris. This includes the additions of a few plugins as well as some overall site tweaks. So hopefully they should be done in the near future.

I’ve got a massive new featured article on the way, so that may be up in the next 2 weeks. Thanks for staying tuned.
