About Tessellations.org

Tessellations.org was first opened on 30th October, 2003.

See 'Latest Site Updates' in the 'This Website' part of our menu for a list of, and links to, our newest material.

The best resolution to view it in is 1024x768 pixels or higher. It will generally fit on an 800x600 screen, but scroll bars will appear on the largest pages and the navigation menu may not work as fully as it should. Full color ("16 bit" or better) is essential to see the art as it was intended.

The site is NOT designed for old web browsers. Internet Explorer v.6, especially, is "antique" in the same way that dinosaurs' diapers are "charmingly old". If IE6 is your web browser, it's well worth your time, for modern website compatibility, for security reasons, and for so many more reasons, to install a free upgrade or replacement. Please use the latest version of your web browser. We like Firefox best.

Also, until our new CSS-driven menu is on every page, your browser's JavaScript must be turned on so you can see and use our older menu.

The site is coded mostly by hand with the assistance of 'DreamWeaver' by Adobe / Macromedia and Open Source Software "RText".

The original author and designer of the site, David Annal, was a physician who lived in Mitcham, a southern suburb of London. He was a devoted family man and and excellent diagnostc physician. His three major hobbies were his tessellation art, his cats, and membership in a computer boffins' club.

Dr. David

On May 6th, 2008, after a years-long battle with cancer, David passed away. David remained active on the website until the end of his time with us, creating new art and adding to the website. His art, his friendship, and his generosity are missed. You can read an obituary and biography of Dr. David on our sister site, here.

In December of 2005, Seth Bareiss joined as co-webmaster. Seth has lived in 13 countries, collects adventure-related scars the way some people collect bumper stickers, and currently stumbles around Asia and the Pacific. He has variously made his living as a teacher, computer advice columnist, magazine illustrator and editorial cartoonist, web designer, submarine co-pilot (yes, really), computer nerd, and Japanese-English-German translator. He dreams of one day living in Australia where men are men, women are women, kangaroos are shareholders, kids named 'Joey' have an extra bounce in their step, the government gives its people universal health care, and the Great Barrier Reef floats like a sparkling halo around the continent.
