Convert your website into DNA art

The DNA profile of nargalzius.com

How it works

WEB2DNA will take you website, analyze it, crunch it to little bits and spit it out as a graphic representation of a human DNA.

The brightness of the lines is determined by the importance of the tags in terms of structure.

• H1 is brighter than H2, which is brighter than H3.
• TABLE is brighter than TR, which is brighter than TD tags.
• Images and flash elements appear as 70% white.
• New HTML tags like STRONG and EM are brighter than older ones like B and I
• UL, OL and DL is brighter than their LI, DT, DD
• DIV layout is brighter than TABLE layout

Basically, a semantically rich site will appear brighter than one with messy old-style code.

You can also determine the richness of text on a site. A site the focuses on (text) content is one where the DNA patterns is large (filling many containers), but contains a lot of empty spaces between the lines (empty space is the individual words).

Having said that, I’m glad that I make my own templates – because this made sure that nargalzius.com was unique from the rest. I can imagine sites/blogs that use templates will probably look the similar as other sites/blogs which do the same. Essentially, their text will be the unique content in the markup – but as stated above, the application renders text as space, so bummer for them I guess.
