Welcome to Dusted Online
Introduction
I've owned this site for a while now and I never cease to be amazed by the amount of traffic these holding pages receive. I guess a lot of people out there must like using cleaning products. ;-)
Although not entirely sure which direction I'll be taking this site in, I can be pretty certain it won't be a website for a dusting service.
Dusted has many Urban Dictionary connotations and is thrown about in the design world and music industry, so I'll more than likely be going with an experimental code and design site. For now though, this place-setter will have to suffice while I have a think about it. :)
Anyway, there's not much else here and I'll assume you're not here for a spell check on the word 'dusted', so here are a couple of dusted-related links that I like:
By the way, if you'd like to make a general enquiry, give a suggestion or just say, "hello", feel free to contact me via the address provided on this site. :)
Design Notes
You'll have to forgive the lackluster site appearance, but I've virtually given up trying to make web pages look acceptable in all browsers. It's simply not possible. Besides, these pages are merely place-setters until something more permanent arrives.
I have to say, there is nothing more deflating than producing a text-based web page in Safari, only to fire it up in IExplorer on Windows and see its poorly-conceived, text-rendering engine completely trash it.
The bottom line is, you'll never get a standard text-based, web page to look good through Windows IExplorer until they update their text rendering engine - period. I hear they'll be using Direct Write for IE9. About time. I hope it's an improvement.
Anyway, if you're using Windows, this page is best viewed through a Safari Browser with the Quartz Engine running. On a Mac, it shouldn't matter. Under all circumstances, high pixel density (ppi) is preferable. Text-based webpages simply don't look right on any other setup.
I've put this web space together from scatch pretty quickly. Over time, I'll endeavour to improve things.
