A new website for my art!

I've been working away for the last several weeks making a website to display my art. I thought maybe you would be interested. After days of patient coding with my bare hands, and lots of learning on the job and rewrites, hunting down all the affected code, the website is finally up. Lots to fill in still, but look tolerantly. There will be more over the next few weeks!

Thank you all! Simon, the ease of navigation was a top priority from the start: I hate it it when you can't find your way around a site easily. The fact that I was coding by hand as a non-expert meant that there was no temptation to use JavaScript or Flash, which is a good thing because all that flashy stuff just slows down the loading and just calls attention to itself, not the content of the site.

Seriously old-school to actually WRITE html. Cap doffed.

It's not too difficult to write your own HTML code but it's very difficult to do a site as tidy, attractive and coherent as your's Ciaran. Very well done.
