Fueled by coffee
Fueled by a couple of strong coffees, I’ve some how managed to sketch up 5 different website designs in my web design Moleskine this morning. Hopefully over the next few days or so I can start putting the designs together, code wise that is.
I’ve always been into playing around with website design and development but until recently the ‘light bulb moment’ hadn’t happened for me and I had been struggling with some reasonably basic things…then the light bulb moment happened and well I’ve been motivated and sketching since. I still run into the odd problem, but the web design community is generally really good at helping each other out, so most of the time I can get an answer / solution to the problem within minutes.
So what are these designs actually for? Good question. At this stage one of them is for a mates band, Head of State, who are looking to relaunch their website for a run of upcoming shows and festivals. The others aren’t ’spoken for’ at this stage, so I might submit them to Theme Forest or one of those websites, not sure yet.
As the designs start to take shape I might post a few teaser screen grabs here, for now though I better get back to work.
Raining
The last couple of days it’s been raining it’s butt off in Newcastle, seriously solid downpours. Yesterday afternoon I got trapped in my car for about 5 minutes because it was raining so hard and I really didn’t feel like getting drenched.
Anyway, busy day ahead. Got a couple of websites to finish off, both are in the final code clean-up stage and then I can get to testing them both. After that I think it’ll be client training time, then bill them both out and hopefully there won’t be too much support to do as I’ve made them as user friendly as possible.
Maternity photography, part 2!
It seems there has been quite a few ‘Part 2s’ around here lately, why mess up the vibe by calling this blog something else?
So a few month’s back I did a photo shoot with some friends who were having a baby, well long story short the baby’s been born and we had a follow up shoot. Finally, my fault entirely, I’ve finished editing up their photos so I figured I would post a load here for you to peruse.
