Guilfin Re-Design site
Glad to see Guilfin http://www.guilfin.net/ continue with re-design. Think they probably have a fair sized resource now, and still think that it is only a serious enthusiast, that dredges around in the back of the site. For troublemaking reasons, I think it is a good idea, to keep text and pix, ‘rotated’ in front of them, at the front. I think ‘reminding’ people of the size, and scope of our mission is important. As an ‘old gezzer’ I’m am frequently becoming more gobsmacked, at the lack of many knowing a bit of our history /roots /deviations / others involved etc etc …. and think it all stronger when folks do know some on these things. What I try to do at my own site I guess. I put a list about earlier, wonder if that says what we are and were we’re trying to get to. I think these connections describe ‘us’, so, something from all that should go past as links/extracts on your front page. Wonder, is all this complicated? or, no.
Thats a bit on content then …. Excuse my naivety, since I’m in the company of webdesigners, but i have just discovered example of the use of ‘textbox’. I’ve never knowingly seen it before. But for the use of a photograph, on the front of a site, I’m impressed. Take a look at: http://gominosensei.org/green.php
The picture is the background. Text scrolls in textbox, all described in CSS.
Apparently the chap nicked idea and code form ‘Independence Day film!’
So, as far as I’ve got as an experiment is a ‘front’ for my blogs!
My effort at: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tash.lodge/Blog/Blog.htm
Do people see what I’m at here, is there any merit, or, does all this make for complicated delivery.
Just thought I’d chime in again.
Very best
