More teasing on the Parkcrest site I’m working on. Made quite a few changes to the original layout and still designing in the browser, so semantics are pretty much out the window on this one. I do believe that God roundhouse kicks a kitten in the gut every time I use unsemantic class names, so I’ll try to clean things up before sending this in. In the meantime, you’d better lock up Snowbell, Mittens, or whatever you’re calling your cat these days.

Early teaser of a microsite I’m working on for Parkcrest Church. Designing in the browser on this bad boy, which feels a little backwards but seems to work well this time around.

Finally getting a chance to give my personal blog a much needed facelift. I’m seeing this less as a fancy redesign than a shaky experiment in responsive web design. It’s my first attempt at a truly fluid layout, so I’m expecting this to be a slow and sloppy process.

Got the green light to launch this site. It’s a concept for a WordPress theme I developed that each of the 14 Foursquare district offices could use as a regional website to communicate and serve the pastors in their region.  I was really inspired by the GOOD website during the design process, but the back-end is what I’m proud of. I used some pretty sweet plugins for the calendar (The Event Calendar) and church locator (SimpleMap), but I added a lot of custom functions that make this theme very self-sustaining, such as a dynamic staff list that updates when new users are added, custom profile fields for Facebook and Twitter that feed to various areas of the site for each user, and ten color schemes that the district van choose from if they want a slightly different look than the other districts.  Phew. That was fun.

Concept for a postcard we’re working on for our church. 

The graphic I’m working on for an email newsletter header. Since Campaign Monitor upgraded its editor and code tags, I’ve been thinking about how to use the new features to my advantage. I’m shooting to merge three templates into one. We’ll see how it goes.

A few highlights from my high altitude, boot-scootin’ and overly-competitive family reunion this past weekend in Boulder, CO. 

Some family reunions are caustic. Mine has a view like this. (Taken with instagram)

OMG, it’s like my guitar was that nerdy chick in high school that grew up to be hot and rubs it in at the 10-year reunion: (Taken with instagram)
