Ertyseidel.com was created by me, Erty Seidel, sometime around 2000, as a project for my class - a website about riparian areas. Everyone was very impressed that I had a website.

My earliest site

I eventually got bored with that design and website (I made it in MS Frontpage), so I changed it, making it more about me, since that's who the site was named after

2005 Site

After a while, I decided that I wanted to publish my comic, "Fish Food", online. To get to the comic itself, you had to follow a link, but I finally was making regular updates, and publishing comics. I didn't really get the whole usability thing, yet. Included on the site was a treasure hunt, which I might do again. I also had a list of all the videogames I owned, along with a short review and ranking.

2006 site

All of those new features were hard to maintain, however, so in late 2006, I changed my site once again. By now I knew some basic CSS, and the usability increased - that day's comic was on the front page.

2006 site number 2

Sometime in 2007 (probably July, when I started To Save a Live), my website changed again. Favoring simplicity, this grey-blue box adorned my homepage for some time. I couldn't put the day's comic on there, because infinite canvas comics are hard to display, except on their own page.

2007 site

In November 2008, as I finished To Save a Life, I updated my homepage once again, to this fifth iteration - For almost six months, I put up no new content.

2008 site

In April 2009, I decided to return to the internet, but quickly moved to Organic Donut.

2009 site

Now, I have returned again, with this new and improved site!

Thanks much to the Internet Archive for providing me with the very first iterations of my site, which would have otherwise been lost to time.
