My Multi-Touch Table!

more website refining and name change

I have a new name now - 'Hand Made' - to suit the style more, and it also reinforces that that the students have put a lot of work into the exhibition.

Here is another refines version of the website, the coverflow has been made less 'Mac', so the images are displayed randomly rotated and scaled, giving it a messy look. This suits the style much better as the original cover flow was too linear.
