Today I will mostly be Wordpresserising

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

..and tomorrow! I’ve recently been getting back in the groove of Wordpress, and 2.9 is just bloody lovely. did you know 2.9 now does post thumbnails too? Yeh baby!

I’ve got three different Wordpress powered sites to build. Two tomorrow at work, and then another for a friend and they are all very different from one another, which is great as it means I get to play with all sorts of wp goodies!

My first Web site is for a restaurant or a hotel. Haven’t decided which as yet as it will be an example site, the design is coming along nicely though and I’m looking forward to getting stuck in first thing in the morning. There will be jQuery carousels, expanding lists and in addition to the client-side programming there will be some unobtrusive CSS3 and @font-face goings-on too. Just subtly, see if anyone notices ;o)

The second web site will be a little more in-depth. Although it will have a fairly basic design it is intended to be an online shop of sorts, with categories, products and links to paypal thrown in for good measure. Both sites are intended to show clients what they can get on a shoe string, if they are prepared to add the content themselves that is.

They may not be real sites, but I’m really excited as the design and build will be all mine! Will post links if I’m allowed ;o)

A font testing template

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Damned handy, this. I found it here.

It’s a html file containing various different pre-styled elements at various font sizes, allowing you to easily insert @font-face files and test them in different scenarious. Perfect for my day-to-day needs.
