I created my first web page back at the dawn of the World-Wide Web while teaching at UC Riverside in the 1990s. Back then, all the coding was done strictly in HTML using a plain text editor. Twenty-five years later, my web pages still looked like they are hand-written in HTML, despite the fact that I’d switched to Adobe GoLive and then Dreamweaver along the way. My website is currently too big to do a complete overhaul on (25 years of kludging stuff onto it). However, after separating www.randallhyde.com from plantation-productions.com, I decided I ought to start cleaning it up, starting with the main web pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I wanted a tool to support HTML 5 animations (to support some of my books with tutorials), I settled on Hype 4 Pro (https:\/\/tumult.com\/hype\/pro\/). While I’m busy proving that a great piece of software is no match for my poor graphic design skills, I have been very pleased with how well Hype has allowed me to lay out the pages the way I want, rather than the way HTML insists on displaying them despite my best intentions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though I’ve yet to get into the animation features, I can definitely rate Hype 4 Pro as “very good” at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cheers,
Randy Hyde<\/p>\n\n\n\n
