New design for DCM Studios Online!

Tue May 5, 2009, 8:01 PM
David's deviantART Journal


Early this afternoon, I was struck by two things at once: disgust at the fact that the "temporary" design of the front page for my website has been up for more than a year; and an inspiration for a new look. So I spent the rest of the day, and into the evening, creating the graphics and coding the HTML, until finally I uploaded the whole shebang to my webhost, where it lies in wait for the unsuspecting web surfer :plotting:

I've also resurrected my old Blogspot update blog, which appears in the main frame of the front page (and therefore probably wouldn't make much sense if viewed separately). I'd toyed with the idea of displaying my deviantART page instead (since it'll still be the first source for notice of new stuff on the site), but I decided it would have made the page too busy.

******

For those who're interested in news about my cat Booger: He's still up and around; if you hadn't been told he had terminal bone cancer and a life expectancy of only a couple more months, you wouldn't know there's anything wrong with him. It could be that the veterinarian gave us some reeeaaaallly good meds to give him (we sneak it into his wet food), but whatever it is, we're very happy to see that he's not suffering. At least, not yet.

BTW, the surgeon who did the surgery on him has a name to gladden the heart of a fan of 1960's Hanna-Barbera animation: Dr. Quest.

Kathleen is her first name IIRC.

"Liberty is an inherently offensive lifestyle. Living in a free society guarantees that each one of us will see our most cherished principles and beliefs questioned and in some cases mocked. That psychic discomfort is the price we pay for basic civic peace. It's worth it. It's a pragmatic principle. Defend everyone else's rights, because if you don't there is no one to defend yours." - Blogger "MaxedOutMama"

That's a good design for your web page. :)
:iconkissthemaniac:
The design is definitely a step up from the previous. The only fix that I want to point out is to lock the frames so click-happy idiots like me don't accidentally resize them and mess up the frame work. And for the just in case scenario, you can do this by adding in 'noresize' into your frame bracket ( <frame src=yadayada.html noresize> ). Don't want to sound like a snotty know-it-all, just want to help out. :teamwork:

If you Atheists want to take the "Christ" out of "Christmas" so you'd be more willing to celebrate it with us, then we get to change "Evolution" to "Heathen Monkey Fucking Theory" so we'd be more willing to study it with you.

Looking better. :nod:

Thanks for the update on Booger... poor guy. Glad to read he doesn't seem to be suffering.

And very good work on the new page. I'm wondering when you'll update the individual parts (Satin Steele, Tetsuko, Dyna, etc.)... if you get the time. :sarcasm:

I'd thought about doing that, but didn't know whether it'd be useful . I'll give that another thought or two.

Patience, my impetuous friend... the website redesign is not the only thing I've been working on lately ;)
