Getting started freelancing - again.

Peaceful Revolution: A unique site we just launched. Thoughts?
@TheDark12 Thanks so much! You're right, I think this design style is catching on. It's definitely a deviation of our way of designing (never really made a site so image-centric), but I feel it was a great first pass!

Peaceful Revolution: A unique site we just launched. Thoughts?
@cybershot, as Traq said, they are there. Do you not see them? If so, let me know what browser you are using so I can troubleshoot! :) @traq We played around with this for a while. The client ultimately wanted GMT or UTC. His vision is it would…

wordpress widget styles
This is because your "word wrapping" is not correct. Add this to your reset: word-wrap: break-word; In other words, change your reset to: html,body,div,span,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,p,blockquote,pre,a,code,em,img,small,fieldset,form,label,leg…

How do I get this script to NOT loop?
@karlpcrowley very close and totally on the right track. Just needed that variable run in two locations along with return; to truncate the loop. Fixed through a StackOverflow answer! Here is the solution for those in need: http://stackoverflow.…

Ack, good lookin' out man. There's always something that can sneak by...I updated some portfolio thumbs and I uploaded their non-resized versions!

Wordpress: Do you start with an established theme, or use a totally blank canvass?
I just wanted to throw this into the mix...I used this as my starting point for my personal framework (although I even ended up stripping most of what this theme had away, too: http://starkerstheme.com/

Wordpress: Do you start with an established theme, or use a totally blank canvass?
When I first got started, I did that exact thing. But over time and as my experience grew, I realized that there were things in the base themes that I wanted that weren't there, or things that I didn't need that were. Now I have my own p…

Finally was able to re-design our OWN site...what do you think?
Thanks for all the feedback guys. I understand what you mean about the footer, but we feel it does provide a solid purpose on the more lengthy pages, and it does lean more towards decorative since we wanted the curves to be encapsulating either end…

Finally was able to re-design our OWN site...what do you think?
@ChristopherBurton We wanted the double nav to emulate the curves of our logo (its as if its the curve of the edge of a zoomed in "chee" logo). Beyond that, most pages have a quite a bit of scrolling actually, like the Portfolio, About an…

Finally was able to re-design our OWN site...what do you think?
@tobeeornot Actually still working on that quite a bit. As of now, its just a lot of display:none, which isn't ideal. But with 4G networks going to be the standard soon, not sure if it matters as much. It was our first real attempt at a resp…

Finally was able to re-design our OWN site...what do you think?
@TheDoc...Same here. I thought I could sneak by without needing to use one since most of the pages are fairly long...but sounds like there's some pages where it edges up a bit? Also, this is the first mobile-friendly site we've done usin…

Finally was able to re-design our OWN site...what do you think?
@karlpcrowley thanks for the feedback. I'll think about the NDA thing. Was the site slow loading for you? I ran it through http://gtmetrix.com and got 89% with a page load time of 1.64 seconds which is pretty speedy. It can always be fast…

The Zen of SEO - Check out this article!
Interesting notion, @Habbakuk, at least for you to say that you won't get rankings or results in the long run. Would you want to elaborate a bit? I'm not sure if it that idea is in opposition to what I feel or not. I find that if you …

Head scratcher....box model behaving differently on Chrome vs. Firefox?!?
Yes yes...I was just trying that actually and came to the realization just as I read this...eery! Well, that does steer me in the right direction. But regardless, that means there is still a 1-2px difference between Chrome's padding and Firef…

Head scratcher....box model behaving differently on Chrome vs. Firefox?!?
On closer inspection, it seems the tabs on my Firefox also overlap the border, just by not as much (4px difference). So, perhaps I misunderstand the box model. But still not sure why only my install of Firefox does this. I disabled all plugins an…

Head scratcher....box model behaving differently on Chrome vs. Firefox?!?
And now I just checked my lady's computer and her Firefox (running the same version as me, 5.0), is doing what Chrome is! Chrome and Firefox on her PC are showing the tabs slightly off, per the second image. This would entail that for some …

Past Browser Version Support Question.
As Chris said, what I've found interesting is that over time though is that as I learn more about web design, the less tweaks I need to do in any other browsers, including IE. Most of the time is very minor changes here and there, but the desi…

Help us decide which version is better! (A/B Testing)
@Mitchell - That is great feedback! We have since toned down some of the colors but I can see your points. Our next step is to try and perhaps fit the blue (or some other variation of it) into that design and see if it makes sense. @Moofin - Tha…

Help us decide which version is better! (A/B Testing)
Great comments everywhere guys! We prefer the #1 as well, but the designer of the logo felt it infringed on their branding and so #2 is her reccomendation as a result. While that is true in a way, we feel designing for the web is a different ani…
