TFrank.de awakens from the slumber and begins with adding a Blog aside this website. In this blog I will collect random notes, thoughts and interesting web finds on photography, Mac, computers and gadgets - sometimes with a hint of outdoor, hiking and biking or simply the daily insanity of the world.
With that I'd like to add a channel for news and temporary stuff while I ponder over the make up and extension of this site as my time allows.

Please follow this link for my tfrank.de blog.

Relaunch of my newly designed and enhanced Website! After quite some time I felt, that a fresh design got necessary. With that, navigationwise an enhancement of the site should be cared for an a new look should be presented. Proven content like the Photo-Mailorder Mini-FAQ remained and got enhanced (What are Grey Imports, Remarks to the new "Schuldrecht") and some new content was added. This is essentially the Gallery, which will filled with more and more pictures in the future.

Site History:

Yes, I couldn't resist. Because the design of an private homepage was and is to some extent end in itself - out of interest in design and the medium WorldWideWeb. Although presentation of my work is also important. If one can also present a topic in a way which hold useful information for visitors then both sides a profiting. It goes without saying that the presentation of this sites content was and will be always (I hope) in an appealing and professional way.

The current rendition of this website is already the fourth edition. The predecessors can be seen here:

Screenshot Website Version 1

Version 1, plain in Passepartout style, only three pages. Publishe in december 1997

Screenshot Website Version 2

Screenshot Website Version 2

Version 2 shows already some design elements of the current site

Version No. 3 was basically an enhancement of version no. 2 with a Mountainbike section as well as some words on my photo gear and some tips.
