Portfolio

Thanks for the Radioactive Springs website.....

in a warm March(?)...
You have come a long way baby...
I'm getting closer to understanding web design tools....
Really quality presentations and ease of access for a surfing dude like me...
Keep on truckin'

Thanks Stacey for the comments, they mean a lot :-)

I hope to keep building on the web portfolio in the coming months.

I will take a look at your site too!

The G/R logo thing is very nice.. the info graphic also. I still need to look at the webstuff. -- the whole website is well done as Wes says. I am so lost in that area. look at my website when you can. I did the basic style in illustrator and photoshop and others have helped me in dreamweaver.

I think you are on such a good path Nat!

Thanks for the comments Wes.

I wrote all of the CSS for the site. Of course the blog is using wordpress and Thesis theme.

What is nice about the Thesis theme is that you essentially start from scratch but all of the core PHP features are there.
It is a matter of matching up CSS with the code. I use firebug for this. For example if I want to know what controls post titles, I can use firebug to figure this out.
In my case, it is an H1 tag.

I use a custom css file. So I would write .custom before writing my css for each modifier. This allows me to setup multiple blogs using Thesis and keep a separate custom css file for each one. All I need to do is then write the CSS.

The logo was designed in Illustrator and I used Firefox extensions like Web Developer, Firebug, and a few others to help figure out the modifiers for the CSS.

Here is a link to the article I wrote about the specific web developer extensions you can use with firefox.

Take care!
