Long time
readers of From Script To DVD may have noticed that the
site hasn't been updated as usual. I'll try to explain
why.
Computers and software are constantly updated. What's
new today is suddenly old a few minutes later. Almost
anybody who's got a slight interest in computers knows
this. So I've had to update software and new equipment
on my end. Between transferring an entire 900+ page site
to new software and Internet compliant rules, and having
some computer versus web server issues, the site hasn't
been updated on a timely schedule. Please accept my
apologies.
When FSTDVD was started a few years ago, I had to learn
how to create a website from scratch. The first and only
program I bought was the much derided Microsoft
FrontPage. Web programmers, go ahead and laugh. I've had
plenty of other web programmers pat me on the shoulder
with a sorrowful look in their eyes. Not knowing the
difference between FrontPage's bizarre code, CSS and
other web programming speak, I mastered this site in
that software. It was inexpensive and supposedly was an
easy way to build a site. Picture building a huge house
with outdated construction techniques and non-standard
building material, only to start over from scratch to
bring the house up to modern standards. That's what's
happening here on this site.
I'm in the process of re-building FSTDVD to bring it up
to new web standards. This will take some time to update
the pages. Many of the old pages still have the old look
(something you can see) and old coding (something you
can't see). Hopefully all the pages on this site will be
updated soon. This won't happen overnight. So if the
pages look old and don't match the rest of the site,
you'll know why.
I thank you for your continuing support of the site.
