| Ahh, my first
homepage. Seems like just yesterday that I took a course in web design
and erected my first virtual presence. Looking back at it 3 years later,
it really is quite ugly, but so were most personal homepages at that point
in time. In fact, a lot are pretty ugly today too. As bad as this page
looks in retrospect, it still holds a special place in my heart. Some of
its features are still alive in casa today. |

1 -- the one and only |

2 -- the lost years |
Tired of the
look of my homepage, I dedicated my time to creating a new look. This,
unfortunately, was the best I could come up with, as my HTML and general
design skills were still developing. I'm not really sure what I was
thinking with this page. Mainly, I just dug the title image that I had
made, and was partial to the color scheme that I chose. I really don't
recall having this page around for very long, and am reluctant to
call it Version 2. Maybe 1.5... This page will NOT look right with any
resolution other than 800 x 600. |

| It think of
this page as the final realization of what I had started with casa 2. The
color scheme remained in tact, but the page as a whole got a nice tight,
compact look. It's pretty interesting to look back at this page,
because it doesn't look like any other version of casa, or any other
page I've ever designed. Notable due to the fact that it's the first page
that used a font other than Times or Courier. |

4 -- old glory |
Version 4 is
is the longest running version of casa. The main page design was put into
use on November 11th, 1998, with the last significant change made in November
of 1999. With a bright, fun look, casa 4 was designed to be simple. Images
were kept small, with most of the subpages having no images and a plain
white background. For some reason, I really dug (and still dig) the
use of primary colors.. |
