Ok, so the my SoftEgg.com website is now mostly operational. The 20 year old table based layout is now stable again, a lot of the dead links and missing images are repaired or replaced, everything was rewired to use PHP includes for the large portions of the layout, the bad links for the dead blog were removed, and so it looks GOOD ENOUGH to work for reference for my resume and portfolio.
Some of the content is still very dated, but, well, it's a 20 year old website.
That took a couple of weeks.
It feels like such a waste to be spending my valuable (expensive) time in Germany resurrecting this crap, but it's my basically my extended resume, for better or worse.

Would you kindly give the project a look and if you like it, please hit like at the top! Getting some money in the contest would really help us to afford to continue development!

Conceived as a piece of premium swag for the MAGwest convention, "Stylish!" investigates how cheaply one can make a real, useful monophonic, digital (virtual analog) music synthesizer! Borrowing the stylus-based keyboard from the venerable Stylophone, and adding complete synthesis features like mult...
