 Hi Toby,

Well done and very professional. I liked particularly the way you solved the problem of using new layout techniques while maitaining compatibility with old browsers (I still use Netscape 4.72 because my homebaking account requires it). With Mozilla, your site looks great!

Thank you very much for the kind words :)

XHTML+CSS2 can be quite flexible, accessible, clean, and fun.
Most of the site should also look OK in Netscape 6+ (Mozilla 0.94?), in Internet Explorer 6+, and in Opera 6.

Hi Irene

: nice graphic for openers!

Thanks a lot :)

: what's the story behind "pink juice"?

One night I was looking for a domain name for my homepage... :)
I wanted something very unspecific, since I use it for very different things: graffiti, Ruby, SVG, etc, and whatever will come in the future. If I would have chosen something like "sprayedart.org", then I would have to register a new domain for the web tech stuff etc.
I also wanted this unspecific/abstract name to be positive; if I would stop to like it one day, it at least shouldn't be negative, so stuff like "artfromhell.net" was out ;)
(I don't like this name anyways, but it illustrates the point.)

So I tried various stuff until I found one that hasn't been taken already. The very short ones are mostly taken, so I tried stuff like "bluesky", "pinkpop", etc... "pinkjuice" is +/- random, but it met the criteria :)

I like the color pink, and juice is the valuable and extract of something [1], for example fresh healthy fruit [2], but perhaps from anything like fields or topics; that's why I chose the name.

Tobi

[1] m-w.com : juice:
"3 a : the inherent quality of a thing : ESSENCE b : STRENGTH, VIGOR, VITALITY [...]
8 : a motivating, inspiring, or enabling force or factor "
[2] Think of an all-natural and safe version of the pink Whipper Snapple.

Similar story for adinfinitum.de. Sk8Mag.de started as adinfinitum.de/Sk8Mag/ (still reachable via this URL, but Sk8Mag.de is undoubtedly the better "brand"). I'm still looking for a domain name for adinfinitum.de/Rollerskate/ for I consider it to be much more important than Sk8Mag.de (though it has far less material).
