kingcosmonaut update I’m back
This is a new start. A new design. New found motivation. New hopes. One of many small steps to come. Obviously there are numerous (way too many) bugs and I’ve still a lot of work to do until everything is finished but I just couldn’t feel more comfortable with uploading such a work-in-progress because that actually is what a personal website should be. And what kingcosmonaut should have been from the beginning.
More later, gotta go to bed now, but anyway:
Welcome to kingcosmonaut.v2!

Welcome! If a design ever did scream out “playground”, this one would surely be it. ;)

Woo! This place is crazy. I like it.
I’m glad you’re back. I’m also glad you’ve finally turned 23. I thought you might have been caught in some kind of time-warp there.

Oh, and on the downside, there goes half my daily traffic… haha.

Pierce, entertaining as always :-D
That’s why you don’t need my traffic-boost anymore. People have finally noticed.

EXCELLENT design! I’ve longed for a good example of “line background” coloring (as in not coloring whole rectangular blocks, whatever it is called), and big backgrounds. All in all just great. :)

Ultra-sweet n tasty dude! Didn’t see the previous one but this is rockin’.

Again, thanks a lot! Also I’m glad you’re all leaving links to your websites/portfolios because they are very inspirational.

Sweet redesign! I thought blogging wasn’t for you :)

Well, I’d be telling a big ol’ fib if I said I preferred this design to the old one, but I’m still glad you’re back.
13. Sebastian Schmieg April 21st, 2006 at 7:23 pm
Rob, I guess you aren’t the only one and I can really understand it. However this design leaves way more room for experiments than the previous one and I see this as a big advantage.
Also, I’m in love with random image generation with the gdlib…

By the way, your site doesn’t seem to work without the “www.” prefix. Made me think it was down… :/
15. Sebastian Schmieg April 23rd, 2006 at 11:36 am
Olav, I’ll look into that. Never noticed it.
16. Mickey J Barczyk April 25th, 2006 at 12:26 am
Wow! Now THAT is trendy :) You are like Picasso with the background image hehe
I love it, specially the technique (code) behind the site. Its so cool!
Will ya lay out the old homepage design as a “new” blog theme?
17. Mickey J Barczyk April 25th, 2006 at 12:36 am
btw, had to check out ur new site in IE and… it dosnt look like it supouse too.
18. Sebastian Schmieg April 25th, 2006 at 8:33 am
Thanks Mickey! I know that it’s broken in IE but that has to wait until I have some spare time. Shouldn’t be too hard to fix.
19. LittlePixel April 25th, 2006 at 6:19 pm
Love it. CSS on acid. The future… ;)

I found this link somehow. This design is fresh — I didn’t see the old one. I’ve been trying to make my wordpress look different from everyone else’s, you’ve managed to do it with style.

22. ulli May 3rd, 2006 at 12:15 pm

Hey Bruder,
nice to get some news via your homepage.
Looks “not bad, not bad”, to say it in the words of one of my instructors.
