Web Design

[12.20.03] Zeldman Redesigns » Wow, the zeldman.com redesign. What a suprise, to come home after a night out, and see the site totally rearranged. An exciting change. What I like The General Concept. I like the large heading, the centered content/sidebar, and the offset...

[12.01.03] Manik Skateboards » Manik Skateboards, a native Seattle board company, has just launched a new site. Coincidentaly, I just purchased a Manik deck after my last setup was stolen (Cindy, you’re my number one suspect). The website is pretty, although the information architecture...

[11.12.03] Kate Farley Landscape Design » A week or two ago I wrapped up my design project for Kate Farley Landscape Design. I developed this small scale site, incorporating branding from previous design work done for the company, namely a buisness card. I updated the write-up...

[11.03.03] ReUSEIT! » The guys over at built for the future put the fifty-one entries for the ReUSEIT! Design Challenge on display. You can see my submission down around the middle there. I didn’t put as much work into this as I should...

[10.08.03] Cute Comments » Despite the advice of many a css guru, I’ve never gotten in the habit of annotating my CSS with comments. But, when I was working on my upcoming Zen Garden submission (more on that later), I decided that it was...

[10.07.03] Great Deeds for the Web Community » I havn’t really believed this crap until just now. (If you don’t know what’s going on, let zeldman tell you.) It’s like I’ve been in denial. To tell you the truth, webpages that I develope really won’t be effected by...

[09.29.03] You Are Here Effects » I started experimenting with you-are-here effects for the navigation buttons here at the site (you know, a visual and/or semantic indicator of which category of the navigation your are in.) If you think about it, there are a lot of...
