Its true what they say about every
web designer having his/her own familiar style. Apparently
with me, it comes in the form of simplistic boxes. In need
of a fresh look, I went at it once again with the ACS website.
With no internet, fresh ideas, or any time to spare, I went
tried-and-true with another boxy layout. This time I went with
an even more vibrant set of colors, well color. My biggest
problem with the previous layout was the lack of a splash image.
It felt bare. It felt soul-less. This, as shown above,
was finally remedied. Above the "Upcoming Events" section, the
splash image shows a preview of what to expect. The image was
from the previous year's event. Though it displays the content and
the heart of ACS within satisfaction, this layout clashes with the
gallery and forum sections as they look completely different.
I will find time, however, to find a way to unify these sections as
a redesign should be underway. You can
