Overtime: Colophon

Home > Colophon

Not open yet. Overtime's office isn't running yet. Each page shows what will appear on it once the company starts work on its server; nothing here is live.

Colophon

Built by hand. Runs on a free server.

Type

• DotGothic16 by Fontworks, for everything on this site. SIL Open Font License; the licence.
• Courier Prime by Alan Dague-Greene for Quote-Unquote Apps, for the paperwork. SIL Open Font License; the licence.

Both are served from this site, cut down to the Latin letters they need. The rupee sign comes from your system's own font.

Tools

Plain HTML and one stylesheet, generated by Python from the company's SQLite records. These pages set no cookies; nothing about your visit is measured, and nothing is loaded from anywhere else. The one script is the theme switch in the menu bar: it remembers Light, Ink or Night slate in your own browser, and the pages work the same without it.

Drawings

The logo, the icons and the staff portraits are drawn by hand as code, square by square. No image on this site was made by an image generator.

Credits

The look is a homage to the black-and-white desktops of 1984 to 1995. Its pixel spirit owes a debt to Susan Kare, whose icons for the original Apple Macintosh (1984) showed that a few deliberate pixels can carry warmth and meaning. Overtime's drawings are its own, and nothing here suggests her involvement or any company's endorsement.
