Version 23.7 Blocks

[Chris M]

CaroleClaude's site needs the Gallery redoing. Being in an adventurous mood, tummy full of chicken Alfredo and a bottle of Tooheys Old chilling in the fridge, I thought, 'why not redo the whole site using the Blocks system?'

The project would be mainly copying from the existing site and pasting into Blocks. A few things would be altered, but most would be as is.
After 30 minutes, I had the index page as I liked, including 2 layers and a change of font style. Off I popped into the mobile variant, which is much like looking at a kindergarten after the kids found the toy box. A cleanup here, a tidy over there and I'll be neat and tidy in no time.

Block 1 (Freeform Block) contained a rectangle, 3 icons and 5 text boxes. I deleted the text, ready for the hamburger icon.
Block 2 (Flexible Block) contained 1 line of text.
Block 3 (Freeform Block) contained 14 items, text, images, shadows.

Moving a range of objects from side-by-side to above and below made the main variant go super nova. Parts of a page curl effect plunged several centimetres down the page. A rectangle I used to create part of a button was so repulsed by its position in life it jumped as high up the page as it could, shed its rounded corners and sulked.

Moving things back into position created a blank space between Blocks 2 and 3 and a simple coloured rectangle slipped out of position and hoped I wouldn't notice.

This was the 3rd Block on the first page. I closed the project, clicked Don't Save, opened the Tooheys Old and came here to report my findings.

I shall be placing Blocks with the pre-made navbars and piles of widgets in the never-to-be-used section.
