Site-wide update- Now running Expressionengine CMS
Monday, February 8th, 2010
A major update to the site is now live. I've converted the site to using Expressionengine's core CMS system (with a few other plug-ins). It's a wonderfully flexible system that allows for complete customization. There's not any design changes, but in the back end I'll be able to make updates faster, easier and most consistently.
If you have a website that needs flexibility or dynamic aspects, it's certainly worth a look.

Lots of new items have been added to the site. I'll try to be brief:
1. Thoughts on Design, 1st edition for sale- yup, a true first edition now available and in-hand. Check out the pics, overall in good condition. Sorry, no dustjacket on this one, but still a good find.
2. Books covers- discovered 3 new covers: Winds (1960), The Gothic Cathedral (1964) and Myth of the Eternal Return (1971?).
3. AD Magazine, Vol. 7 No. 3: purchased a good condition copy and added more pics to it's page. It's much smaller than I would've thought!
