Dickinson College Cheerleading Squad

My Role

CSS, Design, XHTML

Visit Site

This is another example of one of my better sites. My girlfriend was a cheerleader for the Dickinson College Red Devils, and they had a website that just hurt my eyes. So I volunteered to redesign it for her.

I designed it once for her, before I was good at CSS, and I hated it. So a few months later, I asked if I could redo it, and I think it turned out so much better.

The most notable part of this site is Dan Cederholmâ€™s Sliding Faux Columns that I got from Bulletproof Web Design. This book is a definite must read for anyone trying to get into flexible CSS and XHTML. It really made me change the way that I designed websites. I also incorporated a lightbox on the photos page.

Some of the pages on the site have since been updated by someone with less knowledge of web standards.
