![My original 2006 site design
I thought all traces of the my original original site design had been lost to the sands of time [computer failures and backup lessons learned] but I rediscovered the template files for my original website design from 2006.
The thumbnail grid shown is marked up with a table and had no indentation for readability. That’s the only way I knew how to roll back in ‘06. I must have read an article on SEO and content, as there are a lot of pages there. The site was based on the MrSite service and one of their templates while I got to grips with html.
You can see the progression in a previous post announcing my latest redesign. Or visit paulfosterdesign present day, to compare and contrast.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m800e8jVJL1qzqp7lo1_500.png)

Symbolset
Way clever: an icon font that requires *no* special markup. Words like “user” just turn into icon automatically. symbolset.com

A banner I designed [468x60, along with additional sizes] to promote a 2006 World Cup Fantasy Football game organised by a friend. A ‘skyscraper’ version was also embedded in a downloadable spreadsheet for players.
The start of Euro 2012 seems as good a time as any to post this.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lukcs9aaBN1qzqp7lo1_500.jpg)

Dieter Rams' 10 principles of good web design
Some of my favourite words right there in that headline. From the article:
To make a website easy to understand, you have to have a clear view of the goals that the website has in order to design for those goals. You must keep the ease of use and how easy it is for a visitor to reach their goal in mind.

Nice list to refer back to.
