There have been a lot of changes on IITO lately. When I started last week, I wasn’t sure how the final solution would ultimately become; therefore, several different approaches were carried out. The site had slowly turned into more user-friendly due to the abandonment of inline frames and hidden hyperlinks.  Everything is now linked with one main menu. The new layout of pages such as Architecture, photos, and W_Blog is straightforward and easy to follow, yet it effectively enhances the content of the topic. These changes are successful and I believe such methods would be used more in the future.

I was checking things out a couple of days ago on some of the older pages on IITO. “the dream that stuff was made of” archive 1 & archive 2 The truth is, other than all the photos, I really did spend more time on drawings and designs prior to 2004. There was this one picture particularly had my attention. I was greatly amused how similar its language is to my understanding and way of art nowadays.   

Above is a comparison of two images that were created almost 10 years apart. The first one is an acrylic painting which belongs to a series called “Ocean” (other entries 1 2 3 4 5). The second one is a photo I took recently. In fact, now I recall when the shot was taken, the image of the painting had actually resurfaced into my conscience.

"The font size needs to be bigger!!!!!" was one of my many surfacing thoughts while I was reading the previous rambling entries.

Ok. First of all, the short-lived "my Gray Book" has gone into archives for good. After all the changes happened on IITO recently, the page simply didn't belong anymore. Instead, a new section was created intending to become the next IITO blog. So "W_Blog" is here.

It would be a wise thing if I could stay away from web editing for just a couple of days. As much fun as it is, being tied to my chair with a sore back isn't exactly listed on my "739-Favorite-Things-To-Do-On-Any-Given-Day-List", you know. However, I am trying out many new things which consequently all demand a computer (and time, not to mention). It is all about the eagerness to manipulate the world.
