Welcome to Orkneycommunities Plus

If you imagine Orkneycommunities.co.uk as a fine robust house, beautifully maintained and with many original features, then Orkneycommunities Plus is not so much a Grannies End as a fine range of outbuildings.

Showcase or shambles?

Here you can find the works in progress, things that we'd like to bring to your attention, and general eerie-orums. Also, this could become a canvas for creative people to do creative things, so don't be afraid to contact us.

Sales pitch

Note also that Orkneycommunities Plus is simply another Orkneycommunities.co.uk member site- when we looked for a platform to do this we could find no finer one than our own, and your community group could also benefit from one of these low-cost easy-to manage sites... contact us.

NEW!- Monthly pictures feature has new home

The monthly pictures feature has come in from the cold of the old Orkneycommunities demo site, and has a new home in Orkneycommunities PLUS. There are actually still a few pictures to add to this, but in the meantime look at November's pictures and anticipate snow. It's going to be a terrible winter apparently...

NEW!- Image resizing tutorial

A tutorial on image resizing has been added here ... but is purely of historic interest as the new style sites DO IT ALL FOR YOU!
