the history

This page tells you all about the history of Unmod. From the first experiment, to the current day.

You can see what Unmod used to look like here.

The Experiment Begins
Unmod began as simply a little fun in the summer holiday of 2005, just to see what using the software Microsoft Frontpage was like. But of course it ended up more than that.

The First Phase
Once Unmod had only about ten pages, it was finally uploaded to the internet sometime between Autumn and Winter 2005. It was at first edited every few weeks, and had a very long web address.
Known as Unmod
The website was soon called Unmod, and was updated all the time. It kept growing and growing.

An Important Page
One of the most important pages in the history of Unmod, is the News page. Even if not the date it was released, the oldest news entry we still have was posted on 9th May 2006, and can still be seen at the bottom of this page.
A Huge Change
Unmod was still growing, but it needed a new look. So around Halloween 2006, my Dad showed me how to use a new piece of website editing software named Macromedia Dreamweaver (now known as Adobe Dreamweaver). After three months, probably one or two of it working on the new look, Unmod was re-released on 28th January 2007 with a new design, tonnes of new pages and much more. You can still see the news entry explaining it all at the bottom of this page.

Decorated
For the first time, Unmod was decorated. It was celebrating Valentines Day, and now Unmod is still decorated every single time there is a special occasion.
Random Picture Arrives
The first Random Picture was released on 7th March 2007. From this day on there have frequently been new pictures to the right of every page.

First Random Day
The first ever Randomly Themed day happened on 24th April 2007, celebrating Chocolate and Sweets, along with the minor release of the Events page.
Coming Soon
On 1st May 2007, a new page was released, the Coming Soon page, giving clues as to what was coming to Unmod in te future. Plus, this page is still here today, of course.

Membership At Last
After so much work, the Membership feature was finally released on 11th September 2007, and is now a very important part of Unmod.
Terms and Privacy
Yes, a bit boring, but it had to be done sometime. The Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy pages were released on 25th February 2008.
These pages are a little boring, and have no related images

This Very Page
