Colorful Creations
Ok so work on my site has finally begun with gusto - In as much as I have begun working on the template for the site. I doubt it will be my final layout as It's pretty boring .
I'm planning on spending a few hours tomorrow in front of my computer creating a brilliant header image and some logo's etc for branding the site. I think I'd like a big image on the first page and maybe smaller images on inner pages... or do I want to have just one index page with changing content through php?
Ive been picking up a few good css tricks over at mandarin design, I love the polaroid photo layout, as well as the way to pull quotes out of the text like in a amagazine. All using css!
Truly marvelous.
Also Ive chosen the color scheme, I had a bit of help from this great new tool ive found @ Wellstyled.com . Ive taken a range of the pink colors from default group through to light pastel. Then with this group of colors Ive used them in text and as the background for 100px squares on my test page so that I can easily see how each color looks against my black background - It sure does make chosing colors easier.
I'm still stalling at deciding oin what direction to take this site. Obviously I want it to be digital related - I definately want to put up some of my psp brushes, blends, and of course other resources and some tutorials. I love building websites, SO I'd like to share stuff with people. I guess I could do tutorials for everything from creating a custom brush through to adding links and images to a website. A website to help creative minds create their own creative websites.
I Am so looking forward to the weekend.
