Lockdown boredom and some unforeseen time on my hands, combined to initiate a spate of ‘home learning’. My ambition was to learn how to design and build a website that I could dedicate to airguns, in particular my current collection. I wanted to have a central repository that holds all my guns, that I can add to, amend and delete.
This link takes you to my first efforts. The current site – now live - is phase 1.
https://www.walnut.black
I bought the web URL ‘walnut.black’ (.black is a new web suffix, provided as an alternative to the more traditional .co.uk etc) and decided to call my site by the same name.
It’s taken me the best part of a week - evenings and mornings - and I had a number of photos to take as well, which I managed to do last weekend. I’d like to add a bit more insight into each marque as and when I find it. And to be honest, I’ve done a bit of trawling on the BBS already in search of facts so you may recognise the odd phrase or fact that I hope doesn’t come across as plagiarism!
To that end, if anyone is interested in having a browse, there is a contact page on the navigation bar, where you can email me directly if you have any info that you’d like to share and think would improve my info.
I’ve also added a for sale page. One of the reasons for creating the site is to prepare myself for a collection reduction. And over time I will release information via a sales thread on the BBS, and the images will link back to this web page (rather than an image hosting site).
I look forward to your comments.
