When I started this site 3 1/2 years ago, I knew just about zip about website design, and it showed (look in the Archive Section to see what I mean. One year after opening the site, I announced "Ectozone 2.0", where I organized the site by using tables. It made it state of the art for 1999. Today, the next step in the Ectozone's evolution--Ectozone 3.0, if you will, utilizing Cascading Style Sheets. Maybe pretty simple ones by the standards of CSS, but they're all mine. Plus a new link bar powered by Javascripts. All of this means less clunky codes and easier updates in the future. Want to decorate for Christmas? Bam. One script page changed, every page on the site is red, white, and green. The Ectozone Message Board is being warped by these codes too. I jumped at the chance to use the same stylesheet ideas to make the main site and the forum actually look a lot more like the same website than ever before. I had hoped to have the conclusion of "Gemini Rising" ready for this upgrade, but...er, well, it will be done soon. Within the next few weeks, the Ghostbusters West Coast site should be undergoing a similar makeover. I hope everyone enjoys the new look. State of the art for 2002.

Lol...just like I joked the 2004 design was "state of the art for 1999" the new version is what some sites were capable of doing probably around 2002.
