Over the last few days I have been working on the appearance and functionality of my website. I don’t consider this to be what I want it to look like but more as an intermediate step towards getting there.
- Replaced H1 with digital signature using CSS, text is hidden yet keeps its SEO value.
- Made clicking on logo link back to main page.
- Replaced entire header with a single image.
- Switched entire site to .php
- Added automatic year updating functionality to copyright statement.
- Cropped and merged a number of pages.
- Cleaned up image locations on server.
- Updated all links.
- Moved navigation menu position.
- New favicon.
- Altered .htaccess to direct 404 errors to 404.php.
- Removed all iframes.
- Removed all facebook API integration.
- Replaced invalid embedded flash code with valid code.
Known issues:
- Navigation menu stretches vertically in IE6 & IE7.
- Navigation menu could look better.
- Blog page loads awkwardly in IE6-8, maybe waiting for feedburner javascript to fininsh.
- Imported blog content needs styling.
- Gallery and connectivity link buttons uses some inline CSS.
- Somewhat hacky use of CSS.
To do:
- Fix known issues.
- Add content to portfolio and about page.
- Reintergrate twitter API.
- Make site more dynamic.
