So my new site redesign (v2) is live now. I’ve been playing with the Blogger feature for a few weeks in March to test it and get familiar with it, so you’ll probably see some different layouts in the archives. Someday I’ll eventually switch over to Moveable Type.
For a designer who used to dabble in HTML back in the dot-com boom and then somewhat walked away after the dot-com bust (to focus on my original passion: the print design discipline), I’m amazed how easy it really is to learn CSS. Everything in my new site is CSS except the tables and forms. (I’m not a big fan of how CSS handles tables and I didn’t have the energy to learn CSS forms.)
In my portfolio section (Graphic Design/Illustration), pretty much all of the thumbnail images won’t open into a window with a larger view… yet. That’s the next step I’ll be working on in the next few weeks.
Other than that, I’m still making some very minor tweaks to the site, odds are you’ll never notice. Just some last minute spit and polish. Feel free to kick the tires, check the lights, and take it for a spin.

Looking nice Michael… I’d recommend avoiding “new windows” and instead use something like this lightbox script.
Thanks James, I hadn’t looked into that kind of thing yet.
I just checked the link, and I have to say that lightbox script looks pretty nifty! I’ll have to give it a whirl now.
