The Wedding Website
January 2002
This whole thing actually started from an idea to get people RSVP over the web. Wedding websites are everywhere nowadays, but I don't think they were all that common back in 2002.
Version 2
June 2002
After the wedding we were both unemployed, and the site couldn't stay a wedding website forever, so we created a blog without even knowing it. The term Weblogs, or "Blogs" hadn't hit mainstream just yet. Since I didn't know programming at the time, everything was painstakingly updated manually every time. Of course, we didn't have jobs, so we had the time...
Version 3
February 2003
I celebrated learning PHP Programming by putting everything in a database, and redesigned the site once again. I loved this design, though it still strikes me as a little too Windows XP-ish.
Version 4
November 2004
After learning CSS, I just had to redesign the site again. This version was a monster of code but was easy to maintain and update.
