I’ve changed the site face a fair bit, as you can see, because I wanted to finally be able to achieve a consistent feel (in terms of site template) between Wordpress and Coppermine (the photo gallery we use on the site here). That and there were a few issues I was having with formatting on the other template.

So I’ve switched. A little bit of Photoshop Elements got the two pictures in the upper right firmly in place, and a little bit of custom HTML and PHP work got everything else more or less into place. Apologies to anyone viewing this site at a resolution less than 1024×768 — you should really turn up the resolution on your monitor anyhow.

So enjoy the redesign, and yes, don’t worry, I’ll be populating the gallery with images soon enough. We both will be, in fact.

If I could ask one favour of the reader, please watch for any German you see on the site. I know it sounds weird, but just trust me…if you notice anything on the site that appears to be written in German, let me know and I’ll fix it. If possible, try and remember to grab a hyperlink you can send me so I can see an example. The site template looks great, but it’s…er…not written entirely in English, and I’m still trying to translate where it’s needed.

Well, the new site is up and running. That’s not to say that it’s complete just yet — there is still more to add. But for the moment, it is functional, and all the editing that needed to be done to either the site formatting or the inline images is complete.

So…what’s here to check out thus far? Well, you can start, if you like, by having a quick read of an article that gives a bit of information about us, our courtship, and our engagement. Or, alternatively, you can ask us questions directly, or just drop us a line to wish us well.

Or you can just scroll down on the right-hand sidebar and browse some of the links there; both Grace and I maintain our own personal blogs, and we have other things that occupy our time as well.

Most importantly, though: keep checking back. As we finalize details about the wedding, we’ll post news about that, and in short order here I’m going to put up a page of details about the wedding itself, where and when it is, and where and when the reception will be…as well as a bit of information about the various people that are helping us out with making it a success.
