Lots of Progress!

So far, I have done a lot of learning in PHP and have made a lot of progress in building up parts of the website, as well as using some very useful add-ins. I have started using PHPBB, a nice piece of software that lets me implement a nice looking forum without much design from myself (though it is very customizable). I find more and more how much I love open source software!

Check out the site, and look at the Art part that I am trying very hard to complete. There will soon be a gallery available to display all the most recent artwork. With this add-in, I have used LightBox, an image viewing plug-in that brings up the artwork, full-size, in a lit-up front while the rest of the site is dimmed to bring focus to the pictures. This part is being implemented under art.foundryspot.com/gallery.php?page=1. So check it out!

Thanks for all my viewers out there!
