So… What’s been going on?

In a nutshell everything is going great. I’m moving next week. My partners and I have landed a fantastic job. The initial designs are approved and the first invoice has been submitted. So I guess it’s official, the business is rolling.

We a few other projects that we are in the beginning process of, making estimates and such. The project that we have right now is pretty big and is taken all our time.

As far as the new website design for randyhumphries.com, it’s coming along. Scott is working his arse off developing it and I owe him some more design work. I’m honestly too slammed with our current project to give him anything. But soon the new website will be launched, it’s just getting paid to design is far more important right now.

Bumps in the road

There has been many bumps in the road as we start this new business/company I’m not really sure what it is yet but we are working through it all. Later I’ll post a “post-mordem” of our trials and errors as we work through this all. In the mean time watch this space. Very soon that the site re-launch could happen or it could be very far in the future. Scott might be a little bit crushed with our project very soon.

Progress and updates to the new site

So far so good, got almost all positive feedback on the new design. Only some slight modifications to the nav placement/alignment. Also, added a search box. I’ve created some other pages now also, a portfolio page and a testimonial page. Please leave your feedback. To view the designs bigger just click on the images.

New Design

I’ve been working on this the past few days. This is maybe the new design for the site and my effort to make it more focused on my portfolio as I search for a job. So give me your feedback. You can view the full size image here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rehumphries/3397381470/

Open for business

Due to recent circumstances, I’m currently taking freelance work or a full-time gig. Over the next week or so I will be redesigning this site, realigning everything to a business model instead of just a personal space.

Little things that annoy me

Little type things that drive me absolutely crazy.

  • Using a carrot for a bullet
  • Using bullets as an indicator that the text following is a link
  • Using Helvetica for all the text on the page
  • Setting all body copy at 10px

I know it seems trivial but it just bugs the hell out of me.
