a basic version of the site is now online..

there's no real design or anything.. but you can get the information.
as i'm working on the database and all.. you may experience trouble

at the moment i'm messing with the little discography db.. it's a charm to work with database as I don't have to update 400 page of html. i'm learning as i'm doing this.. so please don't be too hard on me. yes I have a design in the work.. at the moment I keep the code as simple as possible. I want the thing to look nice and all, but right now getting the info out is the most important thing.

if you have suggestion for stuff that you would like to be added on the site let me know..

ps. there will be a whole media section.. the disco is up there but not linked yet.

Now is the time to build in standards compliance; get rid of all those font tags, fixed font sizes, background colours, tables for layout etc. Make your site accessible to all, not just people like you.

Or trade in your monochrome monitor for a new one. There's full colour ones now!

You need to join the 21st century kids.

Even the art wank "design" so popular here can be standards compliant. It'll look better, be easier to manage and give users control where they need it.

Of course, if you want dirty to be inaccesible to the visually impaired (presumably noone here is colour blind or has vision defects) feel free to remain stuck yourselves in the late 90's, when Underworld were better but web design was much worse.

I think Yannick has been clear enough about the fact that none of the current designs on dirty (or the forum for that matter) are permanent or final versions.

oh yeah, that's real cool by the way how you put "design" in quotation marks. Care to elaborate on the difference between "real" design and art wank "design"?
