Mark McNeece
Founder of 365i, building and hosting websites for UK businesses since 2002. Author of the Box Shadow Generator and of every page on this site.
Background
I started BSolve IT Limited in Kettering, Northamptonshire in 2002 and have run it, trading as 365i, ever since. The work is web hosting and web design for small businesses: WordPress sites, hand-coded sites, email, domains, and the support tickets that come with all of it. Over more than two decades that has meant looking at a great many stylesheets written by other people, which is where the habit of noticing bad shadows comes from.
Alongside 365i I run 365i Web Design, the WordPress studio Press Forge, AI Visibility, which publishes the AI discovery file specifications this site follows, and Mailbox MCP. The generator started as a page on 365i.co.uk in 2025 and moved here in 2026; the about page has the story.
What I write here
Every guide in the documentation and every page in the examples gallery is written by me, tested against the tool, and reviewed by me. On a one-person site the author and the reviewer are the same person, and the editorial standards say so rather than pretending otherwise. Where a page quotes someone, the quotation is verbatim and linked to the place it can be checked. Where it states a browser version or a contrast ratio, the number was looked up or measured, not remembered.
