    This is a design i did in the year 2000 :D For realz.

    Small text was the THANG back then (some of you will know what i mean, probably not many though!)

    This was done just for fun.. personal deal-e-o.

    The bummer is, my hard drive crashed back in like 2003 or 2004... and back then i never had backups :( So all that precious early work (1996 and beyond) is LOST! I still have the hard drive, hopefully one day there will be a way to get the data off it.

    I do have a couple pieces that managed to survive (like this one) because they were on a CD... i think.

    I remember when small text was everywhere! Such pointless design candy :)

    Thanks to 2Advanced who were one of the biggest influencers in design back then. Also Jens Karlsson (Chapter3.net), James Widegren (Idiocase & May 1 Reboot), Gmunk, NewsToday/QBN, Joshua Davis, Fantasy Interfaces (now Fantasy Interactive), the WDDG (World Domination Design Group)... Neostream is one who's site is still up and so worth the view to see where we've come from http://www.neostream.com/ )

    Without sites like Dribbble, A List Apart & so many others, the web community felt very different back then. We've come a long way, and it's much better.

    Small text embedded in Flash websites. Pixel fonts. Pixel arrows in buttons. Oh yes.

    This was also the era where you numbered your redesigns. Nice!
