    Hi Soloists,

    My name’s Martin Walker and I run a web and graphic design business called Still Moving Design. I’m based in Sydney but have clients all over the country.

    Although I come from a print design background, my core interest is in website design, especially when it comes giving clients control over their own website content via a CMS – I use ExpressionEngine & textpattern. This is especially important when working for small businesses and charities that don’t have large budgets. Autonomy is a great thing.

    Looking forward to being part of these forums and sharing the knowledge wealth.

    Hi and welcome Martin!

    We webbies are slowly working on taking over this forum for our own evil secret plans – shhhh dont tell the others :)

    Seriously though – jump right on in – the water is a comfy temp and the waves never get too big ;)

    I’m curious to know what you based the choice of ExpressionEngine & textpattern on?

    See ya round (will PM the secret handshake later)

    Heidi (currently experiencing over-indulgance of caffeine)

    Hi Still Moving…

    Have you checked out the designers group yet? We have a few discussions going and it would be great to have your input.

    Cheers!

    @peterecrocker: Thanks Peter!


    @Heidi
    Price: Re: EE & txp. I’ve looked at a lot of CMSs and settled on using those two from a) an end-user perspective (can they get how to use it quickly?) and b) what kind of site I’m creating for the client.

    EE & txp work in similar ways. If I want a high level of customisation (or if there’s anything complicated like a petition) then I’ll use EE. For any ‘simple’ sites that won’t really need updating that often (like http://www.chstrategies.com.au/) it’s easier to implement txp. It’s not that you can’t put together a complicated site with textpattern, but with EE I can work faster.


    @Jacquie
    No I haven’t yet. Can’t see it.
