About My Web Site:
October 27, 2008
 
Back in the winter of 1998-99, I toyed around with the idea of creating a Web site where I could display some of my photos taken over the years.
 
I purchased a book about designing Web pages and it came with a CD that assisted me in laying out my first few pages. They were simple and basic pages, but they worked, albeit rather crudely.
 
The more I played around with designing my Web pages, the more I realized that they weren't doing exactly what I wanted them to do. So, I bought more books and studied HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), and began to write my own Web page instructions. It was all trial and error at first, but I learned.
 
There are many programs out there today which will do the same thing plus much, much more, but I take pride in knowing that each one of my Web pages was designed and written in HTML code by me, and they all conform to strict code standards and guidelines.
 
I purposely kept my pages plain, clean and simple. One of my goals was to make navigating through my site an easy and enjoyable experience.
 
Now I'm studying JavaScript to enhance my pages even further.
 
My first "Photo of the Week" appeared on February 23, 1999. I published 33 weekly images, then switched to "Photo of the Month" starting with January 1, 2001.
 
After January 2002's photo, I got behind and did not get "Photo of the Month" back onto a regular schedule until June of that year. Since then, I have published an image each and every month. You can visit my "Archives" page and see them all.
