About Site

Since I got online in 1995 I always thought it would be cool to have a web site. It wasn't until 2001 that I came up with a reason to have a site...desktop wallpapers (and online portfolio for my web designs). Then I needed a domain name. Because all the good ones were taken I decided on Kicking Designs. It doesn't have a specific meaning, but it wasn't taken and it's fairly easy to remember.

This site is just for fun, nothing too serious.

Anything I put up on this site is free for personal use. For more information please view my copyright statement.

There will be periods in the future where nothing on this site will not change at all, and other times I may change the whole site in a matter of a week. That's just how I am, and I do it because this is the only place I can get away with it.

So take your time and look around - that's why I made this site. And if you're reading this, you definitely have some time on your hands.

Enjoy!
