I made a few changes to the site. The first thing you will notice is that the design is slightly different. The redesign of the crest was completed. When that happened, it didn’t look right with the brown theme. So I changed it to green and yellow.
The other thing that happened is that I converted the site from Mango Blog to Wordpress. So you’ll have to give me a little bit of time to get all of the previous posts in here.
Let me know if you run across any problems.
We have a new design for the website courtesy of Josh Boyd. It’s still a little “under construction” though. The family crest isn’t completely finished yet, so for now it’s black with an orange horse. When it is finished we will get the new one up. Other than that there are minor changes we need to finish up. Other than that, let us know what you think about it!
As I said in the previous post, Josh has been working on the family crest. He has send me an “in progress” design of what he has right now. I have to say, it looks great so far. He’s not happy with the horse so he’s going to be doing so work on that.
I also made a little bit of an update to the code on the site. The site is using a Javascript library called Shadowbox for all of the popup windows that open all of the images and videos. Shadowbox has been updated from version 2 to version 3.
The website is back up. For more hard drive space, more bandwidth, faster servers, and the ability to have subdomains, all for a little less than half the price I was paying before, FreerksenFamily.com is now hosted at Hostek.
It took longer than expected to move from one host to another but it finally got finished. I have also added all of the previous posts to the site.
If you experience any problems with the site, please let me know and I will get it fixed ASAP.
Just a heads up, the site may be up and down over the long weekend. I will be moving to another host. One that is not only faster, but also cheaper and allows me to have subdomains.
So if you’ve had problems with the site before, hold tight. The site will only get cooler.
Welcome to FreerksenFamily.com! We just got the site up and running so give us a little bit of time to get settled in and we will get some stuff up here for you.
