			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>ITS BEEN A WHILE</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">It&#8217;s certainly been a while since I last wrote a post about anything on my blog. It hadn&#8217;t been updated since v2.2 and was held together by shoe strings and magic dust. I lost all feeling towards it, I lost the urge to <a href="http://www.gavinelliott.co.uk/index.php/category/blog/past-reviews/" target="_blank">review movies and books</a> and rarely logged in to see if any comments had been left.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">After logging in last week I noticed that users had been reading and making comments on the blog so enough was enough. I had to bring the blog back in to shape and quickly. I generally blog more over Christmas time with having more time off anyway so Friday 31st October I made a stand over my own defeatist attitude.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>WHAT I HAVE TO SHOW</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ve now got something to show, or at least I have the willingness to let every seen what I do and what I have been doing over the past couple of months. I&#8217;ve got a couple of <a href="http://www.validationicons.com" target="_blank">personal projects</a> that I work on outside of the 9-5 work (or sometimes 7-6 depending on my diary) that I finally want to put my name to and would like to showcase some of my day work to the general public.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>I&#8217;M ALL OVER EASY</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.woothemes.com" target="_blank">WooThemes</a> launched their new theme <a href="http://www.woothemes.com/amember/go.php?r=1890&amp;i=b0" target="_blank">Over Easy</a> a few days ago, initial thoughts were that it was a pretty cool theme which a lot of people could get to grips with. I have a lot of time for Adii and the guys over at <a href="http://www.woothemes.com/amember/go.php?r=1890&amp;i=b0" target="_blank">WooThemes</a> and respect their work. The quality of their themes is second to none and they always go out to bring the best themes to their users. (hats off!)</p>

<dl id="attachment_121" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px;">
<dt class="wp-caption-dt" style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.gavinelliott.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/overeasypic.png"><img class="size-full wp-image-121" title="Over Easy" src="http://www.gavinelliott.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/overeasypic.png" alt="overeasypic Why Im over easy" width="500" height="228" /></a></dt>
<dd class="wp-caption-dd">WooThemes: Over Easy Theme</dd>

</div>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;ve been thinking for ages that I would simply redesign my blog, code it up and get it live but work isn&#8217;t allowing the time off to do it. With not being freelance I can afford to not sell myself through my blog, but provide content for people to read instead. <a href="http://www.woothemes.com/amember/go.php?r=1890&amp;i=b0" target="_blank">Over Easy</a> has given me the ability to show off the proejcts I am working on and finally sort out the organisation of my posts.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The colour schemes were great but I wanted to add my own personal touch. The blue and dark grey colour scheme came from a satchel bag I saw months ago, liked the way the colours worked together and grabbed a quick photo with my phone to make sure I remembered.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">With Over Easy I&#8217;ve achieved;</p>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>The organisation of the blog on a whole</li>
<li>The organisation of posts in to relevent categories</li>
<li>Make the blog stronger instead of the shoe string method</li>
<li style="text-align: left;">Show off my projects</li>
</ul>
