Another reboot, and a slightly different approach

Greetings, Earthlings!

I’m glad that the Css Reboot site is up and running, I really enjoy browsing the reboots. But I don’t like the way sites are listed, I prefer the visual browsing using screenshots, or at least let there be a pure list of sites with direct links so I don’t have to click first on the site’s page on CssReboot, and then proceed by clicking again on the site link. Give people more options, mr. Howell ;)

Update: screenshot browsing is available – the Reboot hadn’t been officially started when I posted this a couple of hours ago. My apologies :)


My reboot? I started thinking about it some two or three months ago, with the first version completed in March.After a while, I didn’t like it so much, so I started again from scratch. The next version was done, ready, good to go about three weks ago – but it didn’t grow on me. The third try is what you’re looking at and I’m very satisfied with the final outcome. I’ve always loved the book/paper style, and the Moleskine notebook I’ve bought a while ago really inspired me. Also, I wanted to go back to a more ‘organic’ design.

I’ve removed the ‘web’ category as I haven’t been active in that field for a while. I thought I better emphasise what’s most important to me: Music. That’s why the link letters are red, so my visitors can easily spot it and understand instantly that it’ll lead them to the most interesting part of the site :) Also, the music pages are a wee bit more descriptive now and tracks can be pre-listened in-page thanks to the XSPF Flash music player.
Tracks are available in Mp3 and Ogg Vorbis formats and I plan to upload the lossless FLAC files soon.

Notice: at the moment, I’m having some PHP problems which may result in my front page displaying only two last posts and no ‘recent’ list at the bottom ? on random intervals: now it works, now it doesn’t. I’ll try to fix it by the end of the day. If anyone has any idea why a php script could suddenly stop and break, then please e-mail me. I’m pretty sure it’s not so much my coding as it’s the server’s configuration. Fixed, getID3 was having a fight with php.

I’m off to lunch. Thanks for visiting my website, I hope you’ll enjoy your stay :)
