This Site Then
From the very basic mess of tables and gaudy image navigation to a brief all Flash version full of unecessary animations and sounds, back to a mess of tables with a much cleaner look, to valid HTML 4.01 and CSS database driven backend, this little spot on the internet has been my digital playground for learning and playing with all things internet. I'm always installing scripts and playing with Content Management Systems, looking for new ways to do things on the internet.
