Version 14
February 2011 - Now
Well, this is the current version so you have already seen it. Isn't it pretty? Why not have a look at some of my previous websites and see its evolution?
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 5
Photos: > 2400
Version 13
May 2010 - February 2011
Not very different from the previous version, this design was a little darker with the intent to concentrate more on the image rather than the design. With a new computer and the easy availability of high-speed internet the photos started to look too small... a new design was needed...
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 5
Photos: 2400
Version 12
April 2007 - April 2010
By far the longest iteration of the site. Laziness combined with a enduring love of the design made me keep this for 3 years.
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 4
Photos: 1840
Version 11
August 2005 - April 2007
A nice, clean design, with a bit of pixel background action and clean lines. This design service me for the longest period so far. Was also used as the bones for the next design.
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 4

Version 10
June 2005 - July 2005
This was a lovely re-design I put a fair bit of time into, cleaning up the css and html code etc. However, all of this was undone when my hosts' servers crashed and lost it all.
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 3

Version 9
February 2005 - May 2005
This version featured a new colour scheme and updated information.
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 3
Photos: approx. 400
Version 8
May 2004 - January 2005
This was the first deisgn of the Movable Type version of Astigmatism. The backend was adjusted from a basic Movable Type template and continued to be tinkered with for the entire life of the site.
Code: XHTML / CSS
CMS: Movable Type 3

Version 7
April 2004 (Unused)
I started to code up this design in April 2004, but after I looked at the backend I decided to bite the bullet, purchase some webspace and kentholloway.net, and use Movable Type.
Code: HTML / CSS
Version 6
December 2004 - May 2004
The most recent (old) version of Astigmatism. After previous versions being so large, I decided to just display my favourite / best photos. A lot of the design ideas from this version have been improved upon through to the current version.
Code: HTML / CSS
Photos: 61
Version 5
July 2003 - December 2003
This is probably the most minimalist version of my site and remains my favourite.
Code: HTML / CSS
Photos: 124
Version 4
April 2003 - June 2003
This was probably the hardest version to code, I was trying to make it nice and orderly, failed miserably and it took way too long to update.
Code: HTML
Photos: 230
Version 3
February 2003 - April 2003
Black, orderly and minimal.
Not very pretty.
Code: HTML
Photos: 230
Version 2
July 2002 - February 2003
Basically just a re-tooling of the previous version. Different colours, better organisation and it's green!
Code: HTML
Photos: 155
Version 1
August 2001 - June 2002
My first photography website.
A little bit of line-drawing, some nice borders and friendly colours. This remained the same for 10 months until I grew bored with it.
Code: HTML
