Okay, now we're starting to get somewhere - decent layout and graphics!
I'd just started to use Adobe Photoshop for graphics and images which, in part, helps to explain the leap forward in quality. The ever present Terror of the Zygons image has been re-done and it's resolution and clarity is very much better. The same improvements were made all over the Cuttings Archive and very much benefited the look and feel of the site.
Content was still slightly clunky with some poor introductions to sections of the site and navigation links that were starting to stretch right down the left hand side of each page. Jump links and updates were also badly handled but, although I was unhappy with these, I didn't have enough experience at the time to work out how to improve them.
The background to the links on the left made them slightly difficult to read but was pleasantly quirky!
Technical Details
I'll say it again, buggy code and tonnes of tables and embedded tables in embedded tables - Urgh, terrible!
I'd also picked up enough bad habits to start inserting spacer GIF's everywhere - something I'd come to regret a few years down the line when I had to remove them all!
