Rwsoft 2.0: New Design

Friday, 1 August 2008

Rwsoft has an all-new design, with cutting-edge features and more accessible content than ever.

Moving away from the very plain green, red, and grey theme; Rwsoft now has a new, more scalable design architecture. Re-built from the ground-up with new features and a minimal performance hit.

The redesign came about after some extensive research regarding accessibility and usability, and web design.

Rwsoft is now fully content driven. This means that I've successfully separated the CSS (styling) from the content. In turn, this means more content from me, and better performance for you.

New features

Users of Firefox 3 and Safari 3.1 will now be able to appreciate some of the CSS3 features I've implemented, such as rounded borders.

Perhaps the most exciting new change is the addition of a blog, with a fully functional RSS Feed.

The main pages of Rwsoft now have a user-friendly, attractive introduction to the content below.

In the interests of typography, I've implemented sIFR onto Rwsoft. Right now it's available for titles everywhere except on the blog. More info on sIFR here and here.

With a re-design comes a new logo. The new Rwsoft logo is both sleek and functional.

To help improve accessibility, I've added a Site Search and a Sitemap. It's harder than ever to get lost!

Other features

Minor feature additions include a nice rollover effect on the home button (see below), and a brand-new favicon.

Introducing the Rwsoft Updates Blog

Wednesday, 30 July 2008

Welcome to an all-new feature here on rwsoft! As part of the site re-design, we now have our very own blog!

Powered by Blogger, this promises to be an exciting time, and a much easier way to update the web site.

The blog was designed from scratch, and it was a hard job trying to figure out Blogger's template system, as well as to get it to fit in with the entire web site design. After a few hours' work, however, the design was beginning to take shape, and by the end of it, I can truly say I'm satisfied.

From now on, all site-wise updates will be posted and documented on here, including software updates and new features.

Over the next few weeks, I plan to author blog posts to cover what's already been published, such as new programs, the site re-design, etc.

To stay informed about future blog posts, please take the time to subscribe to the blog feed. If you'd like, you can also subscribe by email.
