The betas and alphas – different concepts of philipp-hoehn.de
Jul 6th, 2007 by philipp
Just accidentally, while I was reading one of your comments, I had the idea of presenting my attempts of creating this page to you. Looking for them in the shoals of my hard disks I discovered some old pages I did years ago.
Please lounge back and enjoy some pictures that hopefully amuse you as much as they amused me (yes, some of them are really bad!).
My last attempt:
This concept nearly made it to philipp-hoehn.de. It was inspired by the old Ubuntu.com page. I hoped to do something clear, simple and blue
I used tables to divide the page into several parts and php-included the content into the left side.
My first GIMP work:
The image at the top was the first header I created with the GIMP. The whole site consisted of a big table and was html valid. I intended to create a big navigation panel where everything could be found.
My failed concept:
This is a concept from 2005. I used quotes and sayings in plain text in the background of the header to create a feeling of curiosity by making them too small to be readable. But, to be honest, it doesn”t look at all like it would cause curiosity, does it? It looks awkward
My gaming site:
This was supposed to be my gaming site. At this time I used to play Counter-Strike a lot and that’’s why I included it into this concept. I planned to write lots of tutorials about how to edit your config files and stuff like that but I never finished working on it.
My transparent content box:
As you can see, I used a partly transparent inline frame to let the content fade into the background. If I remember correctly, I divided the page into different parts by using Photoshop slices. This was definitely not html valid
There have been several other concepts in the past and a couple of sites which I published into the internet. (Un)fortunately I can”t figure out where I put them. Perhaps it’’s better not to find them ever again
