What's New?
- 12 July 1995
- At the request of some customers who wanted to look at some screen shots
before bothering to load the software we now have the
Faximum Screen Shots page.
Only one shot of the Client/Server product and one shot of the new
MS Windows client so far but we'll put some more up soon.
- 11 July 1995
- Phase 1 of the complete revamp of our web pages is finished and
in production.
The structure of the pages has changed to make the home page simpler
and easier to navigate.
Consistent icons and page-header graphics have been added along
with a navigation image map at the bottom of every page.
Graphics design and general advice by Jeff Ong of
ONGdesign.
Implementation and other problems by yours truly, the webmaster.
- 19 April 1995
- Fax Quotation of the Month is now available.
("Quotation of the Month"??? Yes! ...of the Month! Just how often do you
think someone says something newsworthy and interesting 'bout fax???)
In any case, we'll try to come up with something interesting about fax
at least once a month.
- 11 April 1995
- We now have a
Table of Contents
page.
The concept, which seems to becoming popular on many WWW sites, is to
provide a single page which contains all of the links on all of the other
pages. It provides in a single location an hierarchical overview of the
entire web site. This can be extremely helpful both:
- to people familiar with
the site who wish to retrieve a particular item and want to avoid descending
through multiple levels of web pages a page at a time; and
- to new visitors who wish to grasp an overview of the entire
WWW site quickly.
Here's hoping you find this addition useful (and will encourage other sites
to adopt the same convention).
- 3 April 1995
- The Bard on the Beach has arrived!
Vancouver's own summer Shakespeare company has put together their
own Web page with details on the company, its programme for this summer,
and other interesting stuff. See Faximum's
Community and Culture
page for details.
- 11 March 1995
- New section on
press releases
has been added which contains both recent announcements and major
milestones in the history of the company.
- 17 February 1995
- After much fiddling around we finally have a home page logo that
we're pleased with (you will have already seen it by now).
For those of you who are interested: the logo and drop shadow were done
in CorelDraw and CorelPaint; the colour map was tweaked using John Bradley's
xv program; and the interlace and transparency were done using
Tom Boutell's webgif program. (Still to come, icons and better subpage
graphics...my isn't web authoring fun!!!)
- 15 February 1995
- We added the TIA Calendar of Events page as a pro bono favour to the
British Columbia Technology Industries Association (see the
Other Links page).
Now all we have to do is keep it current.
- 10 February 1995
- The InterNIC updates its routing tables and on February 11th our web
server receives its first request from someone requesting www.faximum.com.
AT LAST WE'RE OFFICIAL! (Now all that's left to do is finish editing our
pages and add lots more graphics and icons..sorry to those who hit a black
hole while surfing...and thanks for visiting.)
- 20 January 1995
- Our direct Internet connection (56Kb) is brought up for the first
time and our Web Server services its first off-site request.
Now all we need is for the NIC to register our domain name so we can
start telling the world about www.faximum.com.
