Style: News
Preview of the new upcoming Netlabels.org
I adore building websites. Especially the new Netlabels.org-Website is a delicious one to style and design. Even though I prefer to work with open source tools, it's sometimes necessary to build something custom-made. Nevertheless the new Netlabels.org is build upon open source.
Next to the programming by Martin using Ruby On Rails, I built the whole site upon the marvellous 960-Grid-System by Nathan Smith. Also we make use of the wonderful free icon library called "Crystal Project". You see the icons in action in the screenshot and how I used them in the Admin-Area to guide the user to administer their netlabel. At first i wanted to use the nice FamFamFam Icon Library, but unfortunately the FamFamFam Icons are only in one size: 16x16 pixels. The Crystal Project Icon Library has different sizes from 16x16 to 128x128.

Just wondering when the new netlabel catalogue will be finished. It was a great place for people to check out the new releases.

I miss the catalogue enormously. I'm guessing that Mo is too busy or otherwise unable to finish the update. I'd love it if the old catalogue good be reopened. It has never been replaced. Everything else is too much about the reviewing and writing and not just a simple list of releases in the minimal form. I guess if it is dead, then I just want to say thanks for running as long as it existed as it opened my ears to some brilliant things.

Sorry, i meant to say, if the new catalogue is not going to happen, is there any chance the old catalogue could be reactivated? Not sure I made that clear above.
