I am very happy with the results so far and only have 2 pages to complete. These are the blog and forum pages which i plan to add RRS feeds too within the flash.

I decided to keep the site layout and content simple as possible using more images than text.

This site was created in flash which i find myself using more and more lately.

The process went perfectly without any problems.

Bluepearl Design forums

To be honest I am really only interested in URL rewrites, and in the last few years I have found VBSEO to be bloated and support lacking.

For anybody else interested in uninstalling VBSEO I have found this good post

So far i have played every game i play COD4, Need for Speed Shift, Street Fighter IV and Fallout 3 maxed details and resolution at 1920x1200 with very high FPS. Never drops below 80FPS.

I am glad i decided to go with the 5850 instead of the 5870 or the new 5970 as these cards are proberly overkill right now with no DX11 games out.

I want to spend the next few months finishing and launching 2 of my own sites that i am working on. I also would love to be able to finish Bluepearl Design before christmas lol

I will post more details about my new projects once i have them ready for online use and testing.

Due to limited time i am doing my clients work before my own just until i am on top of things.

I will also be working hard on updating all my phpBB and vBulletin templates.

This is now the 3rd fresh installation i have done in the last year. :(

Unfortunately due to a plugin i installed for WordPress this site was tagged as a phishing site by google. I decided the best way to be completely sure this server was 100% clean was to delete and start over.

I will be blogging and creating tutorials again shortly
