Wesley's Tool-Box

I have finally decided on what to do with rest of my other websites. WDSoft.com, my software company, just had its English website moved to become part of Tool-Box.info website. This signals the start of restructuring the "Wesley's World" website around the current "Wesley's Tool-Box" framework. All related websites will move into here in a similar fashion.

For now, the new website can be accessed from the sidebar at the right.
(Update 2005-08-01 02:07 -- Korean version of the website has also been moved)

The old Wesley's Tool-Box website hosted at wesleyc.com has been cleared out. All pages were replaced with placeholders that redirect the visitors to this site. To lessen the possible confusion each placeholders have an equivalent link that lets a visitor go to the intended content on this site. Eventually I might just remove all the files.

Because the 'old site' is no longer 'accessible' the link has now been removed from the sidebar.

The last bits of translated stuff from the Korean version of the old site have now been integrated to this place. There weren't all that many, of course - only three articles had ever been translated. If I'm not doing translation of the old stuff now, at least I didn't need to ditch the ones that had already been done.

I think I'll have to modify the old site so that anyone connecting to that place is automatically redirected to here.

I've sprinkled the static pages... stuff like the 'about' and 'profile' pages, that is... with helpful photos. People said all text and no photo looks boring, so I dug up some relevant photos and placed them next to each paragraph. It look pretty now.

And shortly after that was done, I also finished creating the Korean versions of those static pages. Visitors from Korea no longer need to read the English version. Even with the photos the text just doesn't get absorbed very well for a lot of readers so this would certainly be a welcome addition. Now the only thing the website isn't in Korean is most of the articles. I'm not sure when or if they will be translated.

Using the new plug-in I made, I have now moved some links to the top part of the page to act as some sort of a navigation bar. I may experiment with this for a while. Also, the gray background behind the contents was a real downer, so I had it changed to a bluish tone that matches the overall feel of the website. I have tweaked the behaviour of the hyperlinks slightly as well - the underline appears only when the mouse hovers on it.

Overall, most of the things I wanted to see on the website are now settled into place. I'm getting really accustomed to this blog system now. The two other websites that are still left on the old website might be integrated to this place as well. I'm not sure.
