Reinvention happens all of the time. The music industry is struggling with distribution methods that satisfy most of the population despite brave new attempts by Radiohead, Prince and Trent Reznor-produced Saul Williams. Television and film writers are on strike until the studios can figure out remuneration for the many digital distribution methods being taken advantage of.
Now it is my time for reinvention. In my case, it will only be redesign for now.
With the construction of my new computer it seemed like an appropriate time to dig in and sit at my desk and come up with something new. I've attempted to streamline everything a bit more. Despite suggestions that I get with the times and do 100 percent CSS for my site, I'm settling for a completed project now. So the change happens quickly in the middle of the night.
After 4 years of the dark gray :
It is now "clean" according to Kelly's boss.
His exclamation of the design being clean may just be a way of saying it is too simple. But it is me. It is the look I was going for. It may not be the latest of programming possible, but it performs well. Still, I am reading about CSS and taking my time. I'm not happy with the tedious methods of updating CSS in MT4 (necessary to personalize the look of my blog) and unless I downgrade to MT3.35 I won't be able to do much with my blog design until I learn a lot more about CSS.
The new design will bring a slight confidence when I apply for jobs that I will have something easily manageable and representative of my many abilities. As I'm feeling very stymied in my current position this brings a breathable air into my life even if nothing immediately comes of it.
Any critiquing is welcome.
