kompozer

I started working with Kompozer this week, which I think forced me to put more thought into what I want my website to look like and what it should include. This is because while I have been working with HTML progress has been slow, and every little thing I get right feels like an acheivement, but with WYSIWYG I can put the basic elements in place very quickly, which means I need to start thinking more about the actual content.
I have decided that I will make my own website, but will continue expanding and refining my Myspace and Facebook pages, as my website will link to these. I still plan to make my Facebook a more professional type page, and my Myspace more personal. This will be much easier with Myspace, as I can post anything that I feel reflects my personality (or an online version of it), whereas with Facebook I will need to consider more carefully what should be included or excluded, and develop the right sort of persona.
My current thinking around my web page is that I want it to fall somewhere in between those two profiles, and reflect both a personal and a professional persona. I have had several ideas about what I could do to acheive this- personal by including images, videos, and links, professional by possibly including details of my qualifications, or possibly links to websites of previous and current employers. At the moment these ideas seem to be a bit random- more ideas for the sake of ideas, but they are at least a starting point from which I can start making real progress, and continue to edit as I refine my ideas and build my concept.
One idea that I have considered is to incorporate previous digital work from my fashion design course, which involved a lot of work in Photoshop and Illustrator. I was initially thinking that I might create some sort of display of my digital artworks, but started thinking more along the lines of applying those skills in creating new content for my pages. In doing this I could develop a visual theme that will be present on all of my pages, which would help to unify my ideas and personas
