Following the links, I counted 2,232 photos on the site. The server had 4,786.
The site was a photo archive of 128 galleries built in Microsoft FrontPage, and I was moving it to WordPress. Some galleries could only be reached from a frame or a JavaScript menu, so a link crawl missed more than half of the photos. I took the inventory from the files on the server instead.
The captions were the second problem. One archive held four different text encodings, and three of them would have scrambled the Polish captions without any warning. They reached WordPress character for character.
On launch day all 15,205 old addresses answered with a permanent redirect, and none of them returned an error. Of those, 9,602 were image files that Google Images had been linking to for years.

3 Page landing btw. Somehow ended up with dark versions, light versions, a whole DS and like 6 card explorations.
Is this overexploring or is this just the job? Genuinely asking. 🧠
Stunning
Project Title: Surreal World 🌀✨
Description: Hey everyone! Here is my submission for the Recraft Challenge — a poster series called "Surreal World"! 🎨
For this project, I dove deep into the Public Domain Image Archive and gathered vintage 18th and 19th-century illustrations from various talented artists of that era — think old-school book engravings, scientific botanical plates, and classical etchings.

I wanted to give these historical artworks a fresh, weird, and fun twist by mixing them with modern surrealism, bold colors, and psychedelic vibes. With Recraft, I blended classic cross-hatching textures and aged paper looks with funky symbols, neon contrasts, and dreamlike patterns.

The cross-hatching and aged paper against those neon pops is a fun tension. Did you set one shared palette rule across all four posters, or let each illustration pick its own accent?
Meet UNFORMED, my new Framer template for independent creative studios and agencies. 🖤💚
I wanted to build something that doesn’t play it safe. Most studio sites look the same, so this one leans into huge condensed type, a warm off-white and black palette, and one loud lime accent.
A few things I’m proud of:
A draggable chrome object in the hero. Grab it and break the frame.
A type experiment where visitors drag the words to make their own composition, and it works by keyboard too.
CMS case studies, an accordion services section and a live local clock.
Fully responsive, with clean text and colour styles and a template guide to help you set it up.
Pages: Home, Work, Project, Studio, Capabilities, Contact and a Template guide.
Built for studios that want their site to have a point of view. Would love to hear what you think.
