Everthing old is new again

As Kevin reminded me yesterday, I have a copy of my old website lying around gathering dust on my hard drive (which is still ticking along fortunately with nary a recurring "gronk" to speak of). It had been a while past since I laid eyes on my handywork so I decided to dig it out and take a look at it.

It surprised me in at least one regard. Whilst I rightly expected some of the html and javascript (viewed with several years more experience) to be a little dodgy, I was nevertheless impressed with the design of it. Admittedly I'm hardly the most objective judge, but then I quite usually take a rather harsh view of my works. Like I said, this came as a pleasant surprise.

I'll also confess that there is some interesting content on it, mainly in the photos section. Primarily for that reason I decided to dust it off and upload it to this site. You can get to it here. Do bear in mind that I present it here as little more than a curiousity.

I should warn that it's not especially compatible with modern browsers (Mozilla doesn't fare well with it, and I imagine that Safari will have a similar problem) with the result that you may not be able to see anything at all. If you really want to view it, I could suggest digging up an old installation of Netscape 4 (or alternatively you could use IE, but you didn't hear that from me). I may get around to fixing some of the issues, since they're mostly quite trivial, but it's not too high on my list of priorities just now. However, if there's a clarion call to arms, I may get around to it sooner rather than later.

Come to think of it, I even have the preceeding website lying around... but that's best left alone for the moment I think.

You have to let the past go at some point after all.
