At last the new site is live and running! This is the third incarnation of New Chemial History since its launch in 2003. I've made a number of changes which I hope will improve the flow of the site and also its usability. The site is now using a bit more flash to take advatage of Flash Remoting, this does introduce accessibility challanges which I am going to focus on for the next month. The exhibition page has improved navigation through the images in a show, you no longer are forced to use the thumnails to go through a show. There are a few minor issues to tackle before I'll be totally happy and signed off but you're never really finsihed I guess that's the point. Another area that is not completed at present is the music section as I havent had time to get to it but I'm hoping to bring it back as soon as I can. As always any feedback is welcome, bugs, likes, dislikes, send them on.
The first exhibition of the new design is a fantastic collection of images from photographer Matt Cheetham. His images of his travels are pretty stunning and if you get a taste here head over to his newly launched site watchlooksee.com
You can see the evolution of the site using the wayback machine a very useful site.
