Off the Grid

Well, after only a month or so on being on Media Temple’s new Grid server, I’m off. Why? Well, in addition to continuing connectivity issues MT are charging for GPU overage. Since they can’t give me more details as to why I’m going over to the tune of about £30 every month (so I can attempt to reduce it right?), then I’ve got myself one of their nice new DV dedicated machines (with a little help and guidance from Andy and Steve).

As a result, this site (and the fivesimplesteps site) and my email will be going through the usual DNS pain over the next couple of days. Fingers crossed it all sorts itself out. See you on the other side.

A picture of Mark BoultonI'm a graphic designer from near Cardiff in the UK. I've been a designer for over ten years now and primarily work on the web. I'm still partial to a bit of print every now and then though. I used to work for Agency.com in London as an Art Director before working as a Senior Designer for the BBC in sunny Cardiff. This was all before I took leave of my senses and formed my own design consultancy, Mark Boulton Design Ltd.

I've got a thing about grids and typography and occasionally ramble on about them to anyone who will listen.

If you're after simple, clean and effective web design; let me know.
