And here's the new design!

Every page has been updated with new content, even the oft neglected mp3 list! The biggest content change is the new photo galleries. It's been almost a year, but I finally have the New York and Washington DC photos up, as well as ACL 2007 and New Mexico photos. And with the code I wrote, photo updates are now easier for me to do, so expect to see far more photos in the future, particularly once I get a dSLR (right now I'm leaning towards getting a Canon 30D).

Other new features include a RSS feed to keep readers notified of updates (ha, updates!), a better archives system, and a slightly different AnthonyCam layout.

On the backend, all the pages are now servered using PHP/MySQL. I'm using PHP 'include' statements and CSS, so I can change the look of the entire site by only editing 3 files. It also allows for a lot of nice dynamic touches, such as displaying all the updates that occured on my birthday or all the photo galleries of the trips I've taken.

Let me know if you run into any problems or broken links, as there are probably a couple lurking around in older posts. Also I've tested the design on Firefox 2 in Windows and Linux, and IE6 and IE7 in Windows and they all looked fine. If you're using some older browser that doesn't support CSS well, then you need to upgrade your browser. But if you're using a modern browser, let me know if something looks weird.

And in case you've already forgotten what this site has looked like for the previous 7 and a half years, here's a link.
