You, Your First Web Site, and You

This next month I’ve given myself the task of redesigning the front end of Rainy Dawg Radio’s web site. Don’t be fooled, the schedule is not current, the featured album is something like six months old, the current events aren’t current anymore, and “LISTEN NOW” means nothing, unless you want to hear the dead summer air that comes as a result of ASUW cutting our budget. No, I’m not getting paid this month either, unless you count karma points as currency. (I don’t.) The trouble with giving myself this task is having criticized the old web site so thoroughly and completely that I may very well refuse to design anything like it. This is probably a very bad idea. In the past I’ve tended to criticize people too harshly about something or other, proceed to fall short of the insanely high standard I’ve set, and then just leave everyone feeling bad about it in the end. This isn’t to say that I mean to sacrifice any functionality to just get this done, but damn it I want to come out of this feeling good about my work.
