Design Philosophy
Design Principle
I want it fast, cheap, and good.
Fast
- Most pages under 3K
- Pages load in less than 1 second even at 28.8 (or while sharing my theoretical 56k with a file sharing program :)
- No images on high traffic pages. None. See "No
Images" on Useit.com
Cheap
- Cheap for me (low bandwidth)
- Cheap for you (low bandwidth)
- Cheap for the Internet (low bandwith)
Good
- As W3HTML as compliant as I can make it.
- Simple design (hard for the designer ;)
- Easy navigation
- Lots of function, no frills, no fillers
- Maximum utilization of screen (few menus, no ads)
- No fancy fonts, no font tags sprinkling
- No JavaScript
- No Frames
- No tables
- No fixed-width text areas (hate those)
In Addition
To support the efforts of the Open Source community: no GIF images.
Motto
My Motto: “This site optimized for 28.8”
