Redesign
Written on March 5, 2010

The new www.markmarchesi.com is now live. I’ve been working on the redesign for the last few weeks. I made my old site in Dreamweaver which allows you to create web pages by simply adding images, typing, and moving elements around a canvas, generating the code automatically as you go. I created my site with no almost no knowledge of what was actually happening in the back end. This time around I decided to delve a little further.
For about a week I devoured html, css, and javascript tutorials on lynda.com, cssplay.com, and adobe labs. In the end I decided to leave the fancier techniques like javascript and ajax up to the experts and set out to create something simple and to the point. I’m pretty happy with the results. On the back end the new markmarchesi.com couldn’t be simpler. That means faster, easier update and less cross browser support issues. And its not to shabby from the front end either if I do say so myself.
