Re: Energy companies

I use Octopus as well - and they are a breath of fresh air compared to others. EG They do not charge extra if you arent on a direct debit. Every month I give a meter reading - and then get a bill to pay for exactky what Ive used. And their system / website is simple toi understand and use.

Re: Not sure how to frame this poster...

Personally I would show some of the surround - although I can see the merits of taking the picture mount- to a few millimeters over the image. Again it's down to personal preference I'd use an extra thick white mount (obviously using conservation mount board) and then a black block frame. Did the cu...

Re: Starting a website

Adam - nice looking site.
One thing I would look at is making sure you have put tags on your images. Search Engines dont know what the image contains - so there is atag you can use to help them - it's an alt tag. If you use Joomla or any website software - it should show you these.

Re: who sells the cheapest Mountboard - White Core ?

give cadremont a go - they will sell bespoke items - mount board comes into that category I think, I occaisonally cut my own mounts for one off bits of work.
Having said that - sometimes it's not worth the hassle and Ive given them a design and theyve cut it for me - hope that helps some.
