So after Danny slammed my style last time, I decided that commadot.com needed a refresher.
First I started looking at WordPress themes. After alot of looking, this one caught my eye. I started hacking it from there. I changed the graphics, the text, the order of some things. Then I added jQuery and started messing around with hide/collapse. I am hiding every post but the first one. Not sure if this is good UX. Need to think about it.
I found this great set of movies on Photoshop CS3. They show this quick-select and refine edges tool that is really helpful. I made the picture of Ethan and I very quickly with it. It crashed a few times, but worked pretty well.
I am concerned that Internet Explorer 7 keeps crashing after the header loads. I am having trouble figuring it out. Need to investigate further. I haven’t checked it yet in IE6. I should probably do that.
Otherwise, I am very happy with the way it looks and works. I need to add some more jQuery goodness to it.
Thoughts?
I came from wordpress.net. Your theme looks great! 🙂
I will see if the designer (who designed the theme) can add a search box somewhere in the theme as you suggested.
Cheers,
Looks fine on IE6 / WinXP.
It’s awfully bright, isn’t it hot-rodder?
