Well, this is the current version so you have already seen it. Isn't it pretty? Small, evolutionary changes to the previous version, time was mostly spent updating the older photos to the larger size.

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.

Version 11

August 2005 - April 2007

Version 10

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.
