About Benjamin

Currently, Ben attends high school in Auckland, New Zealand. He has been interested in design, particularly in web design since the the ripe age of 11, when he made a useless home-page for himself.

Today, Ben is a modest web designer who currently works part-time for treshna Enterprises. He creates simple and intuitive websites for the mind and the soul, and the body. Ahem.

When he has spare time, he enjoys: reading, playing guitar, eating, sleeping, taking amateur photographs with an amateur camera, playing piano, doing some light exercise, watching computer generated films, listening to the radio, making things and sometimes even spamming the microphone on Counter-Strike.

About the Site

I used namely Wordpress, Intype and Photoshop to create this site.

I’ve had a website for some years now, only recently reluctantly migrating to WordPress after many years of using a text-file based database. Many ancient posts have been either edited or deleted to save this planet from unnecessary carbon emissions resulting from mass laughter - I hope you too are green, and can understand my attempt at planetary-preservation.

This site is powered by WordPress, was built using Intype (a notepad alternative), Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Paint (to help with pixel precision accuracy) and was carefully scripted, ensuring that it is both XHTML and CSS compliant.

Bandwidth, web-space, databases etcetera was kindly supplied by treshna Enterprises.

So far, this site has been featured on: CSS Mania, CSS Mess, Most Inspired, CSS Clip, CSS Impress
