I can't remember whether this was on the old blog but following Everything Louder's honour of winning Celebrity Site of The Day for 8th June 2011, I looked at some of the other recipients of the award. Some of the other sites were really pretty so that got me thinking about how I can improve Everything Louder. As much as I wanted a pretty site at the time, it wasn't going to work for the subject matter so I experimented a bit and came up with a new idea.
With the old layout, it was only the galleries that got updated regularly and there was no news or anything like that on the site. A lot of these other sites had news and after trying to find ways to encorporate it into the current site layout, I decided to try another system altogether. I decided to experiment with Wordpress which was used on a lot of the other fansites and came up with a layout which I put out to a few friends to evaluate. Overall the response was good and so on Monday 13th June, the new layout was launched on the domain. It was easier to transfer it over than I thought it would be and the beauty of this system is that I don't have to be tied to the one computer to do site updates.
