Agency Quality Without Agency Prices
As one of the world’s leading RapidWeaver Web Designers I specialise in giving my international clients the professional edge they need to succeed online. If that’s the kind of quality service you need — along with the longterm security of my personal support and commitment — get in touch with me today.
BooksI’m an author, you know
’Tis true, idle reader. I have books to my name. In a previous life I was literally lauded for my efforts to write a crime novel in under seven years. And I succeeded — four times. Now all my literary knowledge and experience stands me and my clients in very good stead, and in June I will close the circle with my first book on Web Design. See below.

evolution
In the last few weeks there have been many changes throughout our RapidWeaver Central ecosystem as we shed our baggy old skin and evolve into a sleeker beast better suited to our seasonal new environment. Catch up below.
stylemodules
Maximal Design Style Modules are fully responsive, highly configurable, self-contained sections of a page that can be copied and pasted into any Stacks page. Each standalone module has its own individual style, and conveys a professional first impression of a web-designer at the top of their game.
Live, every Wednesday, our new improved Help and Tuition sessions are proving very popular. Find out more.

I don't really remember much of anything before I woke up on the operating table in Area 51 — but I do know that the secret code for my WeaverThings is beamed directly into my third consciousness from a distant Reticulan star system. That I feel compelled to share these primitive artefacts with you is perfectly normal humanoid behaviour and definitely not a vital strategic step in an interstellar conspiracy which of course does not exist. Nevertheless, buy one of these artefacts now and I'll get you a window seat.

FiveShadowThingWith more than 10 shadows
Shadows as diaphanous as my mother-in-law's negligée moments before I drag the nightmare screaming to an end.
PriceThingA Thing For All Prices
Responsive, stylish and highly versatile, PriceThing is perfect for creating stylish menus and product price lists.
CircularThingWhen You Need to get around
CircularThing gives responsive round linkable images with subtle hover effects that work beautifully on all devices.

freethings
Nothing is free in life. Except of course Free Things. They require no sign-up and can be downloaded directly. The Sense of Absurdity that is essential to the function of these stacks is also free and may be acquired quite naturally, usually by living long enough. If you vote, then you already have it.
GiggidyThingOur creepiest stack
If there's one thing it's really good at, creeping up on your website visitors is definitely it.
WindowThingTerminal Blinking
You're probably not aware that you need WindowThing but current research shows that without it your website is not as cool as it could be.
SelectThingIt’s evolutionary
Not many people are aware that Charles Darwin's Law of Evolution by Natural SelectThing was inspired by this stack.
WTF
In the beginning there was the Big Bang. Thirteen billion years later RapidWeaver Central was born. Forged from stardust in the crucible of an ever-expanding Weaververse, we evolved as an all-encompassing RapidWeaver and Web Design portal millennia before today's glorious constellation of resources climbed from the primordial gloop. Although our scope is now much more focused we continue our missionary position as intrepid pioneers forever testing the limits of design as we stumble doomed down cosmic paths no Weaver sane has trod before.

Returning SoonUnder Maintenance
Our archive of stacks and developers will be coming back soon. There are so many great stacks to be found in there that don’t exist on other resources, it’s a rich seam of discovery for those who love to fumble in the dark and unearth unique invaluable gems.
