out on the pasture…
…life on the world wide web.
about…
You have entered the about section, where I write about every little detail I think is worth writing about when it comes to web design – my own that is.
If you wanna know anything about how and/or why some of my designs are created, then this is the section to look. This is also the place if you wanna know more about cross-browser control.
The author is here – in person, and all the standard stuff about copyright, accessibility and so on are collected here.
New articles are added whenever I find there's a need. Articles I'm no longer happy with may be deleted or replaced at any time – I don't like “web rot”.
All articles in this section are revised and updated at irregular intervals. See dates below main content.
on a mission…
I like success, and it doesn't necessarily have to be my own. Thus, I participate on various discussion-lists and forums, as a supporter of well-working and standard-compliant solutions and designs for the web.
I'm a realist more than a perfectionist, so I prefer 'real world solutions' rather than 'academical exercises'. However, there's no progress in status quo, so I may involve myself in discussions about almost any issue related to web design – and sometimes even some that have nothing to do with web design.
I'm serious – at times…
Not sure anyone (who knows me) believes this headline, but seriously: it does happen (on very rare occasions)…
I've made a somewhat serious decision about my own web carpentry: I'll change things that I don't like, and then I'll keep on changing things for as long as I like.
I'm serious…
So I'll be using this section for testing and designing and changing of whatever crosses my mind, and keep on fine-tuning my web-carving skills out here where it's 'open to the public'. Web-carpentry is serious business – and a lot of fun.
going somewhere…
Exploring the options further, based solely on what I want. Doesn't matter what can be done, if I don't need or want it. Doesn't matter what can't be done if I wanna do it anyway.
For now I'm focusing on HTML and CSS, to see how far these basic web design languages can take me. I do keep an eye on all the other ingredients too, so I know which ones to choose when needs arise.
I look at the world from all angles, all the time, to make sure that my own wants and needs don't become lasting limiting-factors. I don't like limitations – they're boring.
