Web Design

One of my little hobbies is building websites. It started out of necessity, when we couldn't afford to get a Pro to build our original clinic website. I had attempted to build a site many years before that, but my skills were pretty rusty in 2006, and technology had moved way ahead.

Those days, I was desperately trying out all kinds of web design software, hoping I could get one to work. It was an unmitigated disaster as my old laptop decided to crash and die in the middle of it all!

Eventually, I fell in love with Frontpage as it was virtually identical to Word. So the first few versions of the Simply Aesthetic website were built with Frontpage.

All was well till my friend Shi told me to try WordPress. Now the original DrChristineCheng.com blog was built on WordPress, and I found it a nightmare! But with his insistence, I found a designer to code my WordPress templates and with that, I have become more and more comfortable with WordPress in the last 9 months.

Last night, I was fiddling about with a normal html template for a new site I'm building about liposculpture. I edited it with Frontpage, then got irritated because there was no fixed elements between the pages. The home page looked great, but the other pages were really unprofessional.

Anyway, after sleeping on it, common sense prevailed & I decided to convert the entire site to WordPress again. Thank God for free templates. I'd love to code my own, but can't do it for nus!

Do check out my new site: All About Liposculpture. Hope you find it informative.
