I finally made myself a site (no archives)
Tue, 03/01/2011 - 11:55am
After like a gajillion years, I finally made a simple portfolio site.
Test location:
http://index.lippemanufacturing.org
The pictures are mostly placeholders, I have to dig through and see what I want to show off.
Because I basically hacked it together myself from an existing gallery package, it's probably poorly done in all sorts of ways, I'd be curious if the layout breaks for anyone.
I could have used a service, made a tublog, wordpress, whatever.. but I guess I like to do things the hard way.
And no, it doesn't have archives of 100,000+ pictures, but I'm working on that.

I really like the site layout, Lippe.
That's closer to what I would like to have than most I have seen.

Way cool!
I hope you put some of *your* music on the site. That would make it even more super duper awesomeful than intended.
Jeez, Lippe, I haven't heard you play in something like 10 years.

yeah, just moved it from the subdomain
Yup, as it apparently didn't completely explode on anyone I just now moved it to straight lippemanufacturing.org without the index part at the beginning. Tidying up the hack layout code, and gonna comb through and put in more specifically selected pictures.
Thanks for checking it out.

i very much like uncluttered web pages. but i have a thing against white backgrounds. they cause eye strain at best and are blinding at worst. for hundreds of years printers have avoided black text on white paper & have gone to great trouble to find paper colors that are non-intrusive. how about an off-white, pearl background? or faint grey so as not to interfere with the colors of the photos.

I hear ye
Yeah, I hear ya. I work green on dark grey for my typing..
I sorta think white is suitable.
But I just tweaked it to a light grey.
I tested out some darker, and even black, but it loses a lot.
Typically in photography one might use a mat, and a black frame.. to achieve the local contrast while not blinding.. but the logistics on a computer display are frustrating..
