A few months back I posted in one of the "website" threads about the site I was working on and a few people wanted me to post it when I got done...so here it is!
My brother started a poetry e-zine early this year and wanted me to do the design and act as the "art editor"....I knew very little about web design, so the first few issues were rather simple. As the site got bigger and several well known poets submitted work, we decided to do a major overhaul of the design...which entailed me learning about such wonderful things as CGI and CSS tags...ugh!
Needless to say, after a couple of all nighters this week, the new site is up! (...and if you can't already tell, I am proud of my little creation on the net!
) After all the work and even implementing a forum to the site, I have a whole new respect for web designers and people like Doug...a lot of work goes into even a simple site and although I would never want to do it for a living, it was a wonderful experience...and one that will not end!! I still have a long list of things to do.
So...if you want to read some strange poetry, head on over to sidereality.com ...and if anyone is interested in submitting some work, poetry, art (hint...photo art people!), etc... we do pay...it's more of a token "we appreciate you" amount at the moment but should increase with time.
Enjoy...and feel free to critique my design...I am still a bit of a web novice and my code probably looks like a 3 year old wrote it!
