Abridged history of North
With the help of the Wayback Machine, I am pleased to present an abridged history of North as it has appeared through the ages.
March 3, 2001I think I was using Dreamweaver to create templates for the pages, but then editing by hand. I'm most likely using table and font tags at this point.January 22, 2002Still using combination of hand-coding and Dreamweaver.
August 4, 2002Upgraded to Blogger. Able to provide more frequent updates about how my broomball team was doing.
August 23, 2003I've switched to Movable Type by this point. Definitely using CSS instead of tables.

This doesn't include anything since my switch to Wordpress -- which has encompassed at least three different appearances (including the default WP theme). There's at least one version missing from within the sequence, too. It would have been my first CSS based layout. I worked on it over winter break in Portland, must have been December 2002-January 2003.
Also not included are pre-North sites. I think I've had a web presence since at least 1996, but those files are long gone. Even if the Wayback Machine has records of them, I don't remember the URLs to be able to look them up.
Of these samples, I like the look of August 2003 the best.








I actually like the March 5 '05 design the most. I'm a sucker for kitschy Western-looking logos.
