Some Like It Hot

March 15th, 2008

Leave your feed reader for a bit, so you can check out my new design. The design and logo are the work of by my buddy, Oak, who I cannot give link cred because he is unable to design for himself. Maybe someday Oak. The development was all by me, obviously. It was an interesting slice and I recorded most of it so I’ll probably put out a new version of my “How to nail a sexy layout” series, screencasts included.

I was going to wait to launch this until I had finished my own blogging system (which I really haven’t started yet) but couldn’t wait. Chances are there are some bugs and I haven’t finished styling/updating everything yet, but there is enough to check out.

I have some cool ideas for this site and for railstips in the near future. That is all for now, just thought I would give people a heads up.

    nice look John…. Surprised you ditched the leprauchaun version so close to St. Patty’s day.
    I’m on FF 2.0.0.12 (on Mac obviously) and your bold linked text is running int the left edge of the unbolded unlinked text it’s next to.
    Also, the text in this text box is kinda retardrd.
    Hate to point out minor things - overall the design looks hot - dangerously hot.

    I just noticed that if you drag the mouse over your face it changes….that’s badass
