New site coming soon!

Hello all, sorry about the lack of update to this site, but I’m just a bit snowed under with lots of creative stuff!

Its with that in mind, that there will be a new JamFactory site coming soon! it’s going to be a hybrid sorta-site, part portfolio and part blog, using Wordpress as the blogging system.

This is because i don’t have time to manage multiple accounts anymore, so if I can bring it all within one place, i think that’s for the best!

In the meantime, stay tuned to my Flickr account as that gets updated most frequently!

Check out the Droplet mini site too, as those lil’ fellas have been flying out fast (ive nearly sold out of my stock of 50 in under a week, yay!)

Thanks all!

Tumblr & Twitter

For a while I've wanted a place that allows me to quickly and easily just post the stuff I like that I find from various sources but didn't have the place to do it... my blog is more about what happens in my life and this site here is my work, so I just used to bookmark everything and keep it for my own amusement... until I found Tumblr!

I've now got my own lil' Tumblr account where I blog anything and everything I find interesting - best of all it's super easy and super quick to do!

Check it out and bookmark me @ jamfactory.tumblr.com

And if you're looking for a place to share all your bits and bobs but don't want it to be difficult, then I definately recommend getting yourself a Tumblr account!

P.S I've re-activated my Twitter account, I thought I'd re-immerse myself in the world of web properly again! Add me @ twitter.com/JamFactory

Mr Jago [CB-HUD V2.002]-[!CLASSIFIED!]

Just uploaded this 'teaser' webpage for my very good friend & hero of mine - Mr Jago.

The new site is in development but wanted to wet your appetites with the 'Classified interface' which will be declassified in the near future, when Jago Robotics Corp. gives JamFactory Systems Inc. the sign off...

A few new bits

Hello all, the site's had a wee update today, a few new bits being added here and there!

I added the below beauties, a set of 4 custom avatars for Realmac Softwares staff use on their Company page and the forum, matching the other avatars available for users.

Aswell as the avatars, last week I was hard at working finishing the new-look Niche Store website, an all-singing all-dancing ecommerce store for Niche, a beautiful shop in Leicester.

Welcome to the new-look JamFactory site!

Hello world! It's been a little while hasn't it!?

Well this is the reason why it's taken so long to update the site, the whole thing has been completely overhauled & built from scratch!

I'd like to give a huge thanks to Mr Ben Counsell of Realmac Software fame because he's the man that has built the foundations of this new graphical beast! Why haven't I built my own website I hear you cry!? Well, this new site is built using RapidWeaver and since Ben & Dan @ Realmac are the creators of RW, it made sense for me to use my photoshop design skills to design & layout the site whilst Ben worked his CSS magic and built the template!

It was a swap of skills (there's LOTS of exciting RapidWeaver work to add to the portfolio next week) so I want to personally thank Ben for his fantastic efforts, I'm very proud of the new site and I hope you like it too!

I'm going to write a longer post very soon with everything that's new here so stay tuned!

~ Gav.
