14th of March, 2010 in the year of our Lord

I finished up a new website this weekend. I’m quite proud of this one. This was my first project with professionally-written copy and it makes a huge difference in the overall quality.
The site was built using WordPress (of course), and the theme (East Baisley, get it? it’s a portmanteau of East Bay and paisley…) uses custom fields for taglines and sidebar colors.

Oh noz!

To someone who hasn’t dealt with this problem before, this issue probably seems pretty intimidating (at least I think it did to me when I first got it). However, this is most likely a simple fix.

I saw 2010 (the sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey) a week or so ago and was pretty impressed with how good it was, seeing as how it was a sequel to a Kubrick film neither written nor directed by Kubrick.
Anyway… I’ve been wanting to design some sci-fi stuff for a while, and I finally did something. It’s a spread based on a quote from 2010.
It reveals the meaning of a line from the movie.

I designed a WordPress site for Will Boyd’s campaign for senate. It was a fun process. Learned a smidge about PHP and integrated Chris Coyier’s AnythingSlider. I realize I could’ve used a lighter slider, but I don’t know enough about jQuery to make many changes to appearance, and I couldn’t find a different one that I liked. I also used custom fields for the first time outside of experimentation.
