Endless Paradigm

I got bored, and decided to completely redo my website.

I did everything from scratch, using my minimal HTML/CSS knowledge, but I'm very happy with the outcome.

very simple, but I like it. (:

comments?

It upholds the crisp simplicity that oh-so-many websites have failed to achieve in this day-and-age of the internet.

With Simplicity can come perfection. Your site certainly isn't perfect, of course, but it certainly uses simplicity nicely.

I like it ^^

Yeah it is nice and simple.
- frames are a bit old school
- white on black can sting the eyes a bit - perhaps make either the background or text a shade of grey?
- perhaps have the main body text (p.derp) a little larger, since it's meant to be read (0.8em should be fine)
- perhaps differentiate your links a bit from the title text

Okay, yeah, I suck at design, so take what you want, lol.
Random fiddling around for 2 minutes in Firebug:

Thanks Sensei

I updated a few things.

and I like what you did with header 3.

eh, yeah, but they're all I really know.

is there a newer, simple way to get the effect I want?

Just tables/DIVs typically are used these days...

no muffins!! :(

well, I've got a div for the sidebar, but the frame displays a different .html file.

I probably know nothing, but it seems like it'd be redundant to have multiple .html files that all have the 'banner' and sidebar, and only change the content.

Can I have a div or table display an external .html file?

That's typically what is done nowadays.  With most websites going dynamic, it's not that difficult either.
The problem with frames:
- navigating to a new page doesn't change the URL in the address bar, so a newbie wants to link someone to a particular page...
- issues with saving pages
- only part of the webpage scrolls (not typical behaviour these days)
- thing breaks if you open a link in a new tab

No, only frames can really do that (Javascript or server scripts don't count :P).
