Website Redesigned

20 September 2009

I spent the day redesigning my website. What may appear to be just a simple visual touch-up was actually a major overhaul. I ported my site from Serendipity–which I began using when I first transitioned to a blog format in 2006–to the more popular WordPress platform. The template is my own custom design built on sandbox.

I have had a personal web presence for over ten years now, and interestingly enough, when I look back on previous sites, it seems I have upgraded the site look-and-feel about every two years.

For your amusement, here are some screen shots from the past (click the thumbnail or year to see a larger image):

    Love the new look. The header is playful.

    Thanks, Collin. I assembled the header from some watercolors I painted in the style of Kandinsky during my undergraduate days.

    Neat to see the look back. I understand how visibly small changes can take as long as large visible changes.

    Yes–and the migration to WordPress was the big part. Whole new engine under this hood. :)
