I think I’ve now completed the elastic template, the last day and half have been taken up with creating an elastic horizontal navigation bar with the use of a styled unordered list.

This is my online portfolio, showcasing work created in the seven years I've been a graphic and web designer.

I also use the site as a development area where ideas and techniques are explored and commented upon.
