Best wishes to everyone for a great and successful 2010!

GUI Update
Posted on: 13/11/2009
A somewhat brand new look for my website. Away with the grey! (and more blue)

More additions
Posted on: 10/08/2009
My face now exists on the about page.. xD

I added a webpage in the contacts section. Hope to put some interesting Chinese stuff there provided by Lynn.

I also updated the Files -> Pubs page with my first real publication!

Keep reading my weblog. There is a lot more to say now that i've escaped Canberra.

Updates
Posted on: 19/07/2009
The travel agenda is now updated. The about page is updated with my correct age. Cosmetic changes are applied throughout.

New site layout
Posted on: 17/07/2009
After years of having one layout, then changing over to another. I felt it was time to combine the two into a better presentation with more content. Work is still in progress.

Website update
Posted on: 26/08/2008
After figuring out for days what the hell the password was again to post here, I finally remembered. I updated with website with some more eye-candy. The major updates are on the publications page. I provided an updated link to my CV on the resume page and fixed some broken links.

Don't forget to check my blog now and then for I have been posting some new material there :-)

xhtml+css tutorial
Posted on: 24/01/2008
I added a short tutorial on xhtml and cascading style sheets (css) for those who are considering to learn how to build a simple website whilst coding properly. Go to Links in the navigation above. Some html background knowledge is assumed.

I made the blog page xhtml transitional. Apparently iframes are good with that. I also made the tab buttons pretty :) So I think this just about completes it. Loading times are excellent. I reckon I won't be adding much more graphics. KISS it is.

Weblog added
Posted on: 16/01/2008
I managed to embed my weblog into the site. Unfortunately it is wider than the rest of the site. I can't change that unless I change the width of the rest of the site. I'm not just yet ready to do that. I'll have to think about it. I'll have to adjust the banner of the blog too sometime. Oh yeah and since i used iframes to embed my blog, that page of the site is just html transitional which sucks but it works for now.

Website revamp
Posted on: 15/01/2008
I finally had the inspiration to get a new site up and quickly too! All you see here was produced in only 3 days. The old site will still exist for now since there is a lot more stuff there (link below banner). This site will remain formal and uncluttered. A new integrated weblog will appear soon-ish in the last tab. In the meantime, Enjoy!

Update
Posted on: 30/12/2007
I've updated a few bits around the site and did another validation check with W3C so now it should be properly coded again. Nothing else to mention. I'm stating to wonder if the site should be expanded. It was originally designed for browsers at a resolution of 1024*768 but now it is much more common that people are working at a higher resolution. My screen is at 1920*1200 and a lot of space gets wasted. Anyway, I won't be making any huge changes any time soon. Too much effort :)

Guestbook reset
Posted on: 16/05/2007
Hi. I was in the process of cleaning the guestbook when I must have done something wrong. So I reinstalled it (and updated it to v4.0.4). I lost all the entries though, but o well no worries. :-)

Browser reminder
Posted on: 21/04/2007
Just a reminder for you honoured visitors of my site. Please use Firefox to view this site. If you really can't be bothered, then use Internet Explorer 7. It'll look almost similar in IE7. But please do NOT use IE6 or less! The way that old browser handles css just plainly wrong! (cascading style sheets or css is style coding for html which gives this site its appearance). I don't know how my site looks in Opera, but I suspect it should display properly. No one uses Opera anyways ;-). If you use any other Gecko based browser (eg Seamonkey), then this site will display properly.

Thank you!

I have added the same news system to the geoworld page and the project page. In the process I lost some of the previous news posts but it should be alright now. I thought about putting all the news just here but then I remembered that the purpose of this website is not to act as a blog. I did add some extra links on the bar on the left to where the other news can be read.

Btw Thank you all who leave a message in the guestbook. I really appreciate it! :-)
