Site News

The posting will probably be minimal this week, as I am working on a major overhaul to the studiotwentysix2 main site. The site hasn’t been updated in quite some time, and there hasn’t been a redesign since 2006...so I am currently in the process of rebuilding the site from scratch.

Things to expect:

There will be less work overall on the new site, as I’m concerned more with quality than quantity at this point. However, there will be a nice batch of new work, and the work carrying over from the current site has been rephotographed.

Image size will increase significantly, and multiple views and close-ups will be utilized. I was using a 366 x 366 px image size previously, and that will now change to 1000 x 600 px.

The new site will be entirely Dreamweaver HTML / XHTML / CSS. On the current site, I have the type as image — it will now use CSS. This will certainly help bring it up to current web standards, and with loading time and translation sites.

I am looking into integrating the blog into the main site to make it one cohesive unit. I will see what Blogger and Wordpress have to offer before I decide on anything drastic.

The homepage will consist of several rotating welcome images; this should add some spice and help add a little interactivity to the experience.

I will keep you updated as the switchover is made.
