I first started blogging in 2004 when my life was a complete mess, it allowed me to get stuff off my chest and still does today. My first blog was hosted on Blogger.com and used a standard template, I only lived there for 3 months, This is what it looked like:

After that I stopped blogging for a few months and started back up in April 2005 hosted on tom.next-tech.us (dead). This was the first time i'd ever used Wordpress and its really good software to use for a blog I didn't know much about wordpress theming at the time as I used a read made theme. Also the site was called Tom Parker Says.

Another 3 months down the line and I had started to hack the kubrick theme into something of my own I never did give this theme a name yet it looks so nice. Next-tech.us was killed off so it was moved to tom.gapras.co.uk, had its on photo gallery too it looked like this:

Black And White: 05 - Not sure when I made this design but looking through blog archives I talked about it on 1st November 2005 so i'll take my word for that This was a total recoded design made by me my own ideas and images not the best design in the world but I did spend alot of time making it and even then it wasn't completely compatible with Internet Exploder it was the first version to include ads (sorry):

Midnight: 06 - This design was launched on exactly 1st January 2006 at 12:00 am good timing aye this is some of the new features it had:

# Firefox and Internet Explorer Support
# Easier Navigation
# Sleeker Design
# Custom Mods
# WordPress 2.0

I'd say it was the best blog design i'd ever done at that time.

Midnight: 06.6 - It was supposed to had been Midnight: 06.5 but saying that theres 12 months in a year so 06.6 would make sence this is the design you see now and will until 2007 this is a slight recode of Midnight: 06 tweaks and it will load alot faster. This design is a live work in progress so even now you will see parts added to the now and again.
