… and so does my website.

in case you didn’t notice, my the background color of my (NEW AND IMPROVED) website changes color depending on when you look at it. it’s a kind of fun/fast and tricky way to make it look like i update it a lot, when i don’t. HA! fooled you.

in case you care, here is a fun chart that tells you what color my website will be when (and can also be used to tell you what time it is - within an hour or two) :

aren’t background colors fun?

for another awesome background color web experience, check out dance theater workshop’s website. click around a bit and watch the background color slowly gradiate.

oh, and for you webbies out there, check out this forum post in which Mattias Sjöberg posts the javascript needed to make my bg-color effect happen.*

*note : make sure to change the && to || when your hours cross over the 24hr mark. i’m not actually sure what this does, but it’s very important. i modified the code i snatched from the above webpage and neglected to notice that detail. at 11pm my enter website just turned white while i was working on it. eek!
