MY niece, who designs Web sites by coding in HTML using Notepad, would probably scoff at the adventure I had this weekend. Over two days, I created templates for a redesigned Web site for Manila Standard Today—without writing a single line of HTML or Javascript.
The Web site, which I designed in 2005 using Dreamweaver (before it was bought by Adobe), was beginning to look old, and I wanted to create pages that would take advantage of the larger computer displays that are common today.
BACK when the speed of PCs was measured in megahertz, most serious graphics design work was done on powerful and expensive workstations.
The arrival of more powerful PCs would change all that. As processors became faster and memory became cheaper, software developers began writing graphics design and image editing programs for the Apple Macintosh or for Windows PCs.
