meddle web design: javascript, dhtml and photography experiments

Changes, changes, changes

Hi. I needed some more space and a lighter background than the one in previous version. Not that I dont like it, at that time (2002) it was one of the few using unobtrusive dhtml, but this time I wanted something quite different: subtle effects, more space to write example codes and ease of reading. I needed a way to add more text without being limited by the height of the scroller.

Content management system has been rewritten from scratch too. Now it's much more powerful, flexible, and lets me add links, pictures, notes and modify texts, delete comments, etc. All of a weblog system but custom made for two reasons: being able to using two languages and also mix the weblog with the photography section. In this case we also added a module that lets us add images from any computer with connection, and modify its size, color, framing, extract EXIF information, etc. without propietary software.

There's still some stuff to do, like making an RSS generator for syndication, add data to the image galleries, etc. Meanwhile we get some days off.

   Hola tronco, Sólo animarte y desearte lo mejor con Zigótica, y comentarte que coincido de pleno con tu nuevo "conceto" de DHTML. Siguiendo esa línea, tu nuevo diseño me parece más usable (el anterior se me hacía pelín "estrecho"), aunque echo de menos ese ambiente submarino ;) Me apunto como tarea pendiente echar un buen vistazo a tu sección de utilidades, que tienen muy buena pinta (aunque el formulario no me admite "mur0" en el mail, parece que no le gustan los dígitos). ¡Saludotes!

Due to spam bullshit this weblog has been closed to comments, it was impossible to keep my blacklist script updated. You can still figure out my email and send me your message. Sorry.
