The Fruit in Frustration

Category : General Web Info, Technology

I recently updated the main page of my website with a website for the Art History Department at the University of Hartford. I’m linking to the final mockup I did for them over 3 years ago because the current design is quite different. Actually it’s almost nothing like what I delivered to them. I think its time that I request that they strip the footer of my name where I take credit for the site.

But I do like the original design, though the code is overly complicated, and it uses iframes so for SEO purposes it’s a terrible website. Im going to keep this site on my page as examples of sites that look good (or at least alright), but are really quite terrible for search engines, and usability.

And I won’t feel bad about ragging on the coder in my blogs because the guy who made it was some kid in Massachusetts on summer break 2 years ago, me.
