A few days ago, I posted about my newest website, Bluesummerskies.net. It was meant to be a simple little tutorial blog. I've changed it to a small web design Business! I know there won't be clients for a while, but I might just start advertising it around the area where I live. I'm excited about this, It would be great to make money off one of my sites. I'm still setting up the website. I've created everything, but I'm still adding the content on some of the pages, but I will get that done really soon.

It's powered by WordPress, one of my favourite blogging tools. Since this is just a website, and has no blog on it, I'm using WordPress as a Content Management System (CMS). You can easily do this by modifying your WordPress themes, and adding a few plugins. The design is based on a template by Andreas Viklund. Of course, as I do with all of my templates, I modify them, some quite drastically to make it how I want them.

I do prefer to make my own, and even then, I'm always changing them, so they look completely different than what they started out as.

I hope for Clients at BlueSummerskies Design! I still have some work to do, so I have to get going.

Movable Type just launched MT 4.0 Beta. It has a whole new inteface design, and loads of new features. My most favourite features are the new WYSIWYG editor, and a new Page feature. You can make as many static pages as you want, just like writing a post. You no longer have to manually make a whole bunch of different templates to be pages- like I did on this site.

I like the new MT a lot, and I am considering changing my other blog, currently being powered by WordPress to Movable Type. I am just waiting for information from my hosting provider before I do that. I am going to upgrade this site eventually too.

I love the new MT, it has everything that I am looking for. With the new features, I can not only use it as a blog tool, but as a full website CMS too.
