Welcome to 512 Pixels

I’d like to welcome you to 512 Pixels, my new home online.

I’m proud of what I accomplished at Forkbombr. But I felt now was the time to re-launch my writing, for many reasons.

So, why the name?

The original Macintosh’s screen was 512 pixels across, helping set the standard screen resolution of 72 DPI. The Mac’s GUI paved the way for computers and design as we know them today. Nothing has been untouched since 1984. I want to pay homage to that with my work.

You can follow the site on Twitter at @512px. If you were subscribed to Forkbombr’s RSS via Feedburner, you don’t have to change a thing to stay updated.

All links to Forkbombr redirect to the correct 512 Pixels page. The .htaccess file is an amazing thing.

The logo was done by Aaron Mahnke over at Wet Frog Studios. I’m super happy with his work on it. I’ve done the CSS and some of the PHP myself, so if you see a bug, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
