hamster wheel

Well, the flash site is done. I have a feeling that the other two sites that I’ve worked on may never get done due to numerous revisions/additions from the clients. But I’ll sure let you know! The flash site was kind of a let down, because though the design was good (handed down to me from someone else), they obviously didn’t test it for a 1024×768 screen. Honestly, I’m not sure what screen they designed it for, because it’s just wide enough for a 1024, but too tall for it.  Who knows. As with most of my projects of late, I just make sure the site is built and that it works. But here’s the link!

On the horizon is an eLearning course and an art website for a woman who does some awesome collages. I’ve got the concept mapped out, and am currently looking for the right graphics to fit into my idea. She says there’s no rush and the tentative deadline is July, and it just might be that long before I get it set up due to the personal goal of moving to a new habitat and not living out of boxes for a month. Plus I have to set up that big hamster wheel. Helps me think.

As I’ve been a bit lazy about posting, I’ll put up some screenshots of the mockups once I get that going. Also, I bought the book Hot Text: Web Writing that Works. I know- sounds pretty cheesy, but it comes highly recommended, so I thought I’d check it out for writing more concise web content. But don’t you worry- it won’t cut into my ramblings on this blog… that would be a travesty.

Rush

Sorry I haven’t written in so long. I’ve been engaged in quite a few rush jobs, so I’ll post some links to those once they’re off the development server and have gone live. One is a flash site that took a lot of graphics work, so I’ll be happy to have that done. The next big thing is a large e-learning course, so hopefully that will be a more steady, and less harried, process.

Unfortunately, as you may have noticed, the portfolio has also taken a backseat. But…trust me, it’s still floating around in my head, careening about with the other ideas that live in there.

Something more substantial will be along shortly, promise.
