ben wilson This is the blog of a one Ben Wilson, a Louisville, Kentucky native who enjoys baseball, beer, music, bikes, things that fly and good food. By day he pushes pixels and makes the Internet happen for a local advertising agency. His wife, Kelly is an Ironman, and his baby Amelia is the cutest thing ever.

By now, no doubt you have noticed the drastic redesign of theLocust.org. Well, frankly, the old style was pretty ugly, and somewhat graphics heavy.

So, i went through and ditched everything that did work, or didn’t need to be here, and here we have it. I also slaved away to make the page look as much the same as I could in both browsers (which, I might add, it still doesn’t work quite well in Netscape, because NETSCAPE SUCKS.) That’s right, I said it… Netscape 4.75 sucks. Go check out Mozilla or get the Preview Release of Netscape 6, which is based on Mozilla. The site now looks the same in Mozilla/NS 6 and IE. Yee-haw. Thank god for standards.

But, a more pressing matter is this: “Does it look good to you?” I hope it does, I think this looks much more stylish than the previous funk, and not to mention the fact that it loads faster, too!

So, let me know what you think, oh, and if you should have any ideas for additions to the site, let me know.

Oh, and for Ronen, I added the functionality if you should happen to forget your password, you can have it reset via email. Enjoy!

  1. …and indeed it does load considerably faster.

  2. Keeping the general color scheme was a nice idea. You might create an archive for any flash stuff that you do that ends up not being on the site, i.e. the first locust logo. It would be nice to have access to that. A slight problem with logging in- instead of astericks, the actual password is visible when typed in. Only a minor problem. Keep up the excellent work, buddy.
