I owe a great deal of thanks to the Wordpress team and all the developers of the Wordpress plugins and hacks I used. This site was heavily modified and I owe a lot of thanks to a lot of people for all the help, direct and indirect that I have received. I would like to thank the following people for all the help, feedback, plugins, hacks and css/design that I based this whole site off…

• I would like to thank Calin for the AMAZING design and countless hours of hard work, slaving and putting up with my criticism. You are a good friend Calin, and I really appreciate your work. This site would not be here without you. I owe you a lot more than YOU even know.
• I would like to thank Michael Heilemann for the Kubrick theme which I based the design off.
• I used a heavily modified version of Exhibit/pictoralis by Owen Winkler which I turned into a browse-able gallery with thumbnail views and extraction from directories. I also used Owens Countdown plugin.
• I used and am very grateful for Jonathan Leightons post teaser plugin.
• I used Brian “ColdForged” Dupuis Spell checker.
• I used Michael Tangens little hack to limit posts to registered users
• I used Alex KingsWordPress mobile addition, and with a lot of hacking, have (Almost) got a symbian and nokia S40 version of my site!

I would also like to thank Calin and Vlad for their help with the design and validation and for Vlads patience while I tore the site to shreds while he was working on the validation.

The site is pure XHTML 1.1 (Yes, one point one) as this site is (almost) accessible on symbian devices. The reason for this is so that Sarah can check out the site when on the bus to college in the mornings or home from college or even in the gaeltach. I know the symbian browsers are to read XHTML-MP but 1.1 works out better. The site SHOULD also be cross browser compatible (When will IE just die!?) which was a LOT of hassle (Especially for Vlad) so it should look the same for all you IE users that have not converted to FireFox yet.

I would absolutely LOVE any feedback that anyone has on the site, recommendations, bugs, complaints and all round general feedback would be very much welcomed. If anyone is interested in how I did any of the changes or implemented any of the features (Especially the gallery and design) I would be more than happy to post the complete source of the site. I look forward to any replies.
