Believe me, I am a Web designer. The reason why this page looks so odd is because you're viewing it in a browser that doesn't support Cascading Style Sheet positioning. It doesn't work in particularly old browsers. However, if you scroll down, you'll find all my content. Don't let this site fool you, I've designed plenty of sites that work in older browsers, this was just my first step towards what is the future of Web design.

Note: This was the first issue of the weekly Missourians under a redesign that I was responsible for. I kept Franklin Gotchic from the previous design, but choose a nicer looking weight of it. The redesign also incorporated a secondary headline type face, Baskerville, and featured new styles for pull quotes, info boxes, and other elements.

WAR

Note: The night war broke, the Missourian’s imagesetter broke too. We were already under tight deadlines because of the hour at which the war started, and this complicated things. Over the course of an hour front pages for various planned editions were created, but by the end of the night it was decided to have one, black and white, edition, seen here..
