I'm psyched because, yes, once again I have changed a website design. This time it's the

TechTimes website that I produce for my school. I basically changed it from an old fashioned, text dominated site to a web 2.0, graphically oriented site. In the process, I tried to increase the accessibility features. I broke a long list of links down and put them on grouped pages (tools, documents, blog, etc.) and minimized the text that- honestly- people weren't reading. I've included a thumbnail here, the same one I picked for my webdocs page (self promotion at its best).
I also had to cut down the size of the background image to optimize load times, and had to utilize a java script to work around the fact that older Internet Explorer versions wouldn't show my transparent .pngs correctly. Lots of work, for sure, but I'm very pleased with the results.
Yeah, it's my geekiness on display, I know. But it's still pretty cool.
