I'll update my website "Angel Land" again for a fresh look and at the same time, to be more specific.
In fact, my website got some "themes" before~ It is not only a personal site.
Ver 1.0 is inspired by Vincent's site. Ever since then, I sort of 'developed' my "website", I got ideas about the theme of my site, the visual effect and the atmosphere (incl. language) of it. I spent my Year 1 Summer Semester in making all the HTML codes. In fact, the layout was not what I intended to make. But with my limited HTML knowledge then, I could only try my best.
It is sort of informative. I got sections about my hobbies and wanna introduce my friends to all those lovely stuff. Ver 1.0 didn't have "diary" section, but a "writing" section, where I did post some articles SOMETIMES. I added a journal section in ver 1.1 to express my "daily life feelings" to all my dear 'distant' frens.
As I learnt more about the web in Year 2, I started to update my site. I intended to use Photoshop and Dreamweaver for that. But, what turned out finally, was that I didn't learn those software well. So I kept using HTML and this time with some more fancy features. I kept the hobbies section dead link 'coz I wanna make a more informative page (with more contents). And as usual, the progress in making those pages were too slow that I didn't finish by the time I wanna make the second new update. I added a Diary section in ver 2.0. This is inspired by Pinky. (The diaries were still kept on different servers now, you could check them if u'd like to; links are posted in my site) I tried to maintain a "high quality" diaries b4, proper language, meaningful contents and really "daily" "diary". Except for the "daily" target, I got them quite well done, at least I think so. However, as time goes on and on, the World changes and changes, people besides u urge me to write some 'friendly' diary!!!! That's with some oral language and more a bit in Chinese. (I wrote English diary only before) The 'workload' in maintaining the diary was heavy enough for me and none of the other sections were updated! :P Small updates were made to improve the site a bit, such as adding some fancy features by Java Script and it made the Ver 2.1.
This current version was originally made by Flash. But u guys know my efficiency in making website, so it was planned to have a layout first updated first, i.e. Ver 3.0 in HTML (of 'coz with Java Script) and Ver 3.1 to be in Flash! There, I found a new 'diary-host' site, and in early 2004, I subscribed to such a site. As all u know, the site was super unstable then and with tons of ads. So I started to develop mine again! This time, I tried the cgi and that made my Flash making postponed again and again.
And finally, here we come, Ver 3.0 with only one page Flash, an 'abandoned' cgi diary page, a 'no-ppl-at-all' forum, a 'merely-only-me' msg board, some photos link, a Xanga and a personal BLOG!
I've REALLY made up my mind. For my diaries:
Xanga - as usual: Mandarin & English~
Blog (personal) - as usual: Cantonese & English~
For my sites:
Ver 4.0 -- a site dedicated to all my music, art and technology teachers & tutors
I'll try to use different kinda multimedia tools in making the site.
Theme: Personal & focused on my hobbies!
Basic Str:
1. Pages incl. Home, Profile, Diary, Msg Board, photos & Links for my personal use.
2. Hobbies Pages, concentrate on:
a. Music (Basic history & music appreciation, my works, tools application, BLOG (my writings on music incl. appreciations)
b. Art (Different Art forms; concentrate on Photography, Computer Graphics and Paintings; history, tools, my own works and BLOG (my feelings/recommendations) with also digital camera stuff
c. Literature (pieces of great work, my interpretations, my works & of 'coz my BLOG (recommendations & feelings)
d. Performance News e.g. Concert, Drama, Opera, Musical, Movie, etc.
I hope this is not too ambitious! :P Once again, I'll first use HTML to write a framework...... (in fact I've been trying out different codes, hope can write one really match my 'layout idea'!) and really hope can use Flash to get the dynamic works!
That's my plan for my website in 2005! Hope it won't take too long to the launch of Angel Land Ver 4.0!!! :D
