Some Notes About The New Design
A few of you might wonder why I changed the design of this website. Well, I think it is more efficient this way:
- It is smaller.
This site gets around 2500 hits (~330 visits) per day. Small HTML documents without high-resoluting images help to fill the (limited) bandwidth with more useful things than ugly navigation pictures.
- It is more logical.
The site's structure is based on logic and not on design. You are missing the "back to main site"-links on the top of each sub-site? Hell, your browser should offer you at least a back button, does it? Why should I emulate a thing your browser can do much better? Mozilla users can use the browsers navigation bar to move through the website.
- It is more flexible.
Updates in this version can be made much faster than in a document containing lots of tables, images and "design stuff". Other people can edit the site without needing much time to understand the code.
- It simply looks better ;-)
